Addressed review question about whether GitHub Actions job context is discarded between jobs.
Context
The code review bot flagged the version verification step in
deploy-centralas redundant, since thebuildjob modifies the pom.xml version usingmvn versions:set. However, each GitHub Actions job runs in a fresh environment with its own checkout—filesystem changes frombuildare not persisted todeploy-central.Changes
No code changes required. The verification step (lines 57-61) correctly validates the original repository version against the tag, ensuring deployments only occur when versions are properly synchronized in source control.
