Walkthrough

The pull request introduces a locale file merging feature to the build pipeline. New path constants are defined in gulpfile.js to manage shared locale sources, local override sources, and output directories. A locale merging function reads JSON files from both sources, merges them with local values taking precedence over non-blank shared values, sorts keys alphabetically, and writes merged results to the output directory. A new locales gulp task is created with file watching for locale JSON changes, and the build pipeline is updated to execute this task alongside existing CSS and JavaScript tasks. The package.json is updated to include a new devDependency for shared theme assets.

Docstring Coverage	⚠️ Warning	Docstring coverage is 50.00% which is insufficient. The required threshold is 80.00%.	Write docstrings for the functions missing them to satisfy the coverage threshold.
Title check	❓ Inconclusive	The title 'update source build tools' is vague and generic, using non-descriptive terms that don't convey meaningful information about the specific changes (locale merging, shared assets integration, or translation string handling).	Consider a more specific title such as 'Add locale merging build task for shared translation strings' to clearly describe the primary change.

Check name	Status	Explanation
Description check	✅ Passed	The description accurately relates to the changeset by explaining the purpose of adding build tools for retrieving shared translation strings and building them into the theme with gulp.
