Add a working branch with latest improvements

[sc0w]

If I use the default branch dev it fails:

Run JamesIves/github-pages-deploy-action@dev
Error: File not found: '/home/runner/work/_actions/JamesIves/github-pages-deploy-action/dev/lib/main.js'

I think maybe this is the expected behavior, but I would like to use always the same branch with latest improvements, maybe is possible to add new branch which always works? maybe with the name latest ?

The release cycle for this project is super tight, often times when a change is made to dev it very shortly after that gets moved to the next release (with the exception of some Dependabot updates). Pointing to a dev could branch have some negative side effects for you as if a bug is merged it means your workflows will automatically inherit it without any change from you.

In my opinion, it's best to point to a specific tagged version, but if you really want cutting edge releases, you can point to the @releases/v4 branch.

the question here is to avoid to edit again and again when new release is done, maybe latest release can have the same tag? latest for example?

[JamesIves]

You can use either JamesIves/github-pages-deploy-action@v4 for that (the major version tag is always updated with the latest change post-release), or leverage Dependabot to keep things updated.

is not possible to add lib folder to dev branch?

It's possible, but not something I'll be investing time in right now.
