Run failed: pages build and deployment

[agitter]

I wasn't able to diagnose the details of that error message, but I believe I understand the problem by looking at the https://github.com/UCSC-Treehouse/TUBI-2023 repository. That repository has some of the Manubot rootstock files but not all of them. Specifically, I noticed it doesn't have the files that run the GitHub Actions workflow that run Manubot on the content and update the files on the output and gh-pages branches. That left the repository in an incomplete state where GitHub Pages is trying to deploy something but failing.

Did you make a few initial commits in that repository before running the Manubot setup script? The setup script will only work on a newly initialized empty repository. It needs to be able to copy the full rootstock commit history to the new repository (relevant to the recent discussion here #504).

If you did not customize too many files in your repository, the most reliable solution may be to create a new empty repository and run the setup script again before commiting anything to that repository. If that succeeds, you could copy any customized files from https://github.com/UCSC-Treehouse/TUBI-2023 into the new repository.
