GitHub Action doesn't respect Pull Requests and it's branches while validating.

Description

It appears that GitHub Action on the .yml validate doesn't include something like this:

on:
  pull_request:
    branches:
      - main
    types:
      - edited
      - opened
      - synchronize

While it's fine for releases, Git Actions will instead use main as opposed to using the pull request's changes for testing purposes.

This caused several hours of troubleshooting when trying to test the changes before merging to Master. Had to resort to building the file myself due to it.

First steps

  1. Read the whole issue, then the project's contributing guide.

  3. Fork the repository and make your change on a branch.
  4. Open a pull request that references the issue number.

Research direction

Inspect the validation .yml GitHub Actions workflow and its current trigger and checkout configuration. Test the workflow from a pull request targeting main, then confirm that validation runs against the pull request's changes rather than the main branch.
