Contributions summary:Andrew primarily contributed to the `moov-io/ach` repository by implementing and refining validation options within the ACH (Automated Clearing House) file processing library. Their work included adding the `AllowInvalidCheckDigit` and `PreserveSpaces` validation options, which involved modifying existing code in multiple files, including `entryDetail.go`, `file.go`, `server/files.go`, and `reader.go`. They also added unit tests to ensure the correct behavior of the new validation rules. These changes enhanced the library's flexibility and adherence to specific ACH file validation standards.
