# Install some dependencies in the container. This speeds up builds if
# you are also using githubToken. Any dependencies installed here will
# be part of the container image that gets cached, so subsequent
# builds don't have to re-install them. The image layer is cached
# publicly in your project's package repository, so it is vital that
# no secrets are present in the container state or logs.
# In this workflow, the only none step using a base_image is Ubuntu,
# so update apt without checking the acutal base_image value.
