+# Unit-testing script
+#
+# This script does the following:
+#   1. Check whether any files were modified that would necessitate unit testing (using the `TRAVIS_COMMIT_RANGE` environment variable).
+#   2. If there are no changed files that require unit testing, exit successfully.
+#   3. Otherwise, run all the unit tests.
+#
+# We do things this way because our unit testing takes a rather long
+# time (average 18-19 minutes as of the original creation of this script),
+# so skipping it when we don't actually need it can significantly speed
+# up the CI process.
