Workflow file for this run

name: pr-check
# Tests PR code against a local SQL Server instance so no Azure credentials are required.
# This workflow uses the pull_request trigger (not pull_request_target), so fork PRs run
# with no secrets and no elevated permissions.
#
# - Linux runners: spin up SQL Server 2022 in a Docker container with SA auth.
# - Windows runners: use the pre-installed SQL Server Express with Integrated Security.
