 ### Documentation
 
 I strive to maintain well-commented code. If a code segment is complex or not immediately clear, it should be accompanied by comments for clarity. When introducing new code or modifying existing code in a way that changes its function or usage, ensure it is properly documented both in the script and the respective `README.md` file.

Conversely, if different `action@version` combinations are being used, they will be counted separately (for example, if the same action appears twice in a repository but one uses `@v2` and one uses `@v3`, by default they will be counted separately unless using `count-by-action` in combination with `--dedupe-by-repo`).
