.nojekyll being ignored
travisdowns opened this issue · comments
I have a blog on github pages, which I build myself and push the generated static files to gh-pages brach in docs folder. This works great.
I don't want github to automatically build my pages, so I have a .nojekyll file as shown here:
https://github.com/travisdowns/travisdowns.github.io/tree/c90b37dd2eb59b9c2bc58f1a48d8380cd67dc481
Still, this action is running and publishing (at least per the logs) to github pages.
How do I make it stop?
@travisdowns Hey! I don't think anyone is watching this repo, so the best bet is to email support@github.com and report this bug.
Hello, this repository is tracked but it has much less visibility at the moment (this will change) than the community forums.
I see you posted on https://github.community/t/jekyll-build-pages-running-despite-nojekll-file/223715/3 too. Thank you for that 🙇. Let us know if you run into further problems.
Yes, the comments there revealed the solution:
If you have your pages set to publish from the docs folder, you should have .nojekyll at docs/.nojekyll rather than at the root of the repository.
