📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

Modified the CI workflow to conditionally set the Boost B2 build-variant parameter. When the compiler is MSVC, both debug and release variants are built; otherwise, the original matrix build-type value is used.

Changes

Cohort / File(s)	Summary
CI Workflow Configuration .github/workflows/ci.yml	Added conditional logic to compute build-variant based on compiler selection: MSVC triggers dual "debug,release" builds while other compilers use the matrix build-type value

Poem

🐰 A workflow twist, both bright and clean,
Debug and release, now foreseen,
When MSVC comes to play,
We build it both ways, hip hooray!
