Note that the [lgtm.com](https://github.com/github/codeql/tree/lgtm.com) branch of this
repository corresponds to the version of the queries that is currently deployed on LGTM.com.
The [main](https://github.com/github/codeql/tree/main) branch may contain changes that
have not been deployed yet, so you may need to upgrade databases downloaded from LGTM.com before
running queries on them.
