Description

Hi!

I'm working on a change for this tool that will allow for skipping uploads for moduleIndex entries (they are lightweight and depend on file mtime, which thrashes run-to-run for us, so they never get reused). I wanted to check in here real quick to see if there are plans to maintain this ongoing (in which case I'll open an upstream PR), or if I should just fork the repo to my company's org and work there in an ongoing fashion. No big deal either way, just want to know before I deal with rewriting module paths, etc.

Thanks!

Research direction

Start by locating the moduleIndex handling and the upload path, then review how module paths and file mtimes determine cache reuse. Done would mean an agreed upstream approach for skipping uploads of moduleIndex entries and confirmation that the behavior works across repeated runs.
