This is a community data repository, created with the `community::init_repository()` function.
1. `{set}/code/distribution/ingest.R` should download and prepare data from a public source, and output files to `{set}/data/distribution`.
2. `{set}/data/distribution/measure_info.json` should contain metadata for each of the measures in the distribution data file(s).
3. `build.R` will convert the distribution data to site-ready versions, and `site.R` specifies the interface of the repository-specific data site.
