   A developer is creating a Lambda function that will be deployed via CodePipeline. The function code is stored in a CodeCommit repository. The build stage uses CodeBuild to package the code. The team wants to ensure that the build output is a versioned artifact that can be traced back to a specific commit. What is the best practice for handling the build artifact in the pipeline?

   • AStore the artifact in a Git repository and use Git tags to mark versions.
   • BUse the Lambda console to upload the code directly from the CodeCommit repository.
   • CConfigure CodeBuild to output the artifact to S3 with a name that includes the commit ID or build ID.
   • DHave CodeBuild output the artifact to an S3 bucket with a fixed name, overwriting the previous version.
