Can I skip running builds for the main branch to save snapshots?

Skipping Chromatic builds on the main branch can lead to inaccurate visual comparisons. This is because feature branches fork off from main and rely on the main branch’s baseline for comparison.

On the contrary, some users run builds only on the main branch after making changes on feature branches. This way the baseline on the main branch always compares against the new set of changes merged into it.
