+- Bonus: Optionally turn off non-DevOps linters (CSS, JS, HTML, etc.) when you want to ignore code (in my case it's to ignore sample code I stick in DevOps projects)
+- Bonus: I added Job steps to correctly determine which branch to diff files with (in the case of having multiple release branches)
 - Bonus: Lints only changed files on a PR, but lints all files on merge to main (or any release) branch
