+# Note regarding restore/save of cache for use by ccache:
+#
+# We only save cache on main branch runs. PR workflows only consume the
+# cache to avoid exceeding the 10 GB limit, which can cause cache thrashing.
+# Also, we only save the cache if there was *not* an exact match when cache
+# was restored. This avoids attempting to write to an existing cache key,
+# which results in failure to save the cache. While failure to save doesn't
+# cause job failures, it seems a waste and is easily avoidable.
