docs/data/reusables/code-scanning/autobuild-compiled-languages.md

If you enable default setup, the autobuild build mode will be used to build compiled languages, as part of your automatically configured {% data variables.code-scanning.codeql_workflow %}. If you enable advanced setup, the basic {% data variables.code-scanning.codeql_workflow %} uses the autobuild build mode. Alternatively, you can change the build mode for your compiled languages to manual and instead specify explicit build commands to analyze only the files that are built by these custom commands.
