Navigating around blockages - I've been having a terrible time doing a much needed consolidation of all my static site generator's plugins. There's some sort of bug in the Github Action library that I wanted to use to figure out if files have been modified in a specific repository folder. Necessary so I can trigger a build and deploy a plugin when I change something.
Well I think I've found another way to do the same thing. Hoping to get something working this week. It will be great to have things tidy. Sometimes it's worth slowing down so you can go faster later. #
