Hey,
A friend of mine started out on a package without asking PkgTemplate to produce online documentation (there were no CI at all on the whole package). I tried to port some of it from other packages that I have but I clearly missed something, ending up with a failing CI here : [Create Project.toml · FJRubio67/HazReg.jl@3bdc26b · GitHub](https://github.com/FJRubio67/HazReg.jl/actions/runs/8327945775/job/22787807739) that says:
```julia

```
Could someone please gently take a look and tell us what is going on ?

I think your github action does not have write permissions so the git command fails.
Wrong but easy and common solution: go to `settings > actions` for your repository and give write permissions to your actions. It seems it is bad practice, especially in terms of security.
Proper solution: inside of the yml file defining your github action add a permissions line and enumerate the write permission.

Humm… It worked, everything got pushed to GitHub pages branch, but the website is still 404. Maybe we missed something else ?

As always, when something is not happening in GitHub Actions (or any other CI service), try to have a look at the logs. Your `page-build-deployment` jobs are failing: [pages-build-deployment · Workflow runs · FJRubio67/HazReg.jl · GitHub](https://github.com/FJRubio67/HazReg.jl/actions/workflows/pages/pages-build-deployment)

Hum… Looks like GitHub actions is trying to run Jekyll, which I guess we do not want here.
