Hey friends, so I was just working on something for the last hour or so and
I got to a point where I decided, you know what this I probably shouldn'tbe doing this like it was an optimization basically. I wanted to be able tochange content on my site, so I whether it be a blog post or the about pageor something like that, but not actually trigger a redeploy and I'm usingGitHub actions right now for this site and there are ways that you candetermine okay, what was the last successful deploy?And what should be the you know what files are changed between that
deploying this one and if they were only content files then just don'tdeploy them. And so, this is absolutely possible and I was working on itand I spent about an hour or so working on this and then I finally decidedhey, you know what?I don't think that I need to worry about this right now. It's an
optimization so what if I'd redeploy on a content only change? Right now,I'm just trying to create the site in the first place. I'm not I'm barelyeven deploying. So yeah, I'm trying to solve a problem that I don't haveand it's very.Possible that when I'm all finished, I'm gonna switch from GitHub actions
to to Netlify or something completely different and yeah, it just seems tome that this is way premature and I should be working on other things justto get this site up and going before worrying about you know, am Ideploying unnecessarily?So yeah, that was just a thought that I wanted to share with you all just
make sure that you when when you realize that what you're doing may or maynot be used.Full and there are other things that you could be doing thatwould be more useful then stop doing what that thing.And I just made a branch and committed to changes that I made I pushed that
branch up and so I'll have that code if I ever need it but I I don't thinkthat I will honestly but in any case I've got it there and I can shift overto something that can provide more value and more of what I'm looking for.So anyway, I hope that's helpful to you and I also hope you have a
splendiferous day.
