Building for testing

To test a branch in GitHub Actions, an updated dist/index.js file is required.

npm run build
git add dist/.
git commit -m "updating index.js"
git log -q -n 1 dist/index.js | less -F

From the log output take note of the commit hash and push to GitHub

In a test GitHub action you can use the branched build of the action by referencing the branch or commit hash, see here for details on the uses syntax.
