# TODO: Run this workflow also on `push` (on at least the main development branches)
# Then add an extra step here that waits for the base branch (not the merge base, because that could be very different)
# to have completed the eval, then use
# gh api --method GET /repos/NixOS/nixpkgs/actions/workflows/eval.yml/runs -f head_sha=<BASE>
# and follow it to the artifact results, where you can then download the outpaths.json from the base branch
# That can then be used to compare the number of changed paths, get evaluation stats and ping appropriate reviewers
