It is possible to enforce HTTPS on GitHub Pages, via https://docs.github.com/en/pages/getting-started-with-github-pages/securing-your-github-pages-site-with-https#enforcing-https-for-your-github-pages-site Without this flag enabled, it is still possible to access the site via http:// URLs, otherwise such URLs will automatically redirect to https:// URLs. However, it is also possible to enforce HTTPS e.g. by using a custom domain and putting Cloudflare in front of GitHub Pages. The Playwright tests, which are designed to catch undesired redirects that may, say, drop the `/git-scm.com/` part of the URLs in forks by mistake, are currently not expecting this. Since GitHub Pages supports HTTPS in all cases, and there are no options anywhere to enforce HTTP instead of HTTPS, let's just test with the https:// URL even if no enforcement was configured.

Unfortunately, this broke regular deployments (because the certificate is apparently unliked): 2024-10-07T15:10:18.7803921Z 1) [chrome] › git-scm.spec.js:25:1 › generator is Hugo ─────────────────────────────────────────── I'll fix it. |
d4f88c1 is the fix (and the commit message contains a bit of context to understand why http://git-scm.com/ (and that URL only) needs to be special-cased. |

And 0340ff6 is the fix for the fix ;-) The deployment worked now. |

Runs the Playwright tests using the https:// URL, always, even if http:// would be possible.
