(Honestly I still don't know if having just .md files and not final .html output still counts as needing "building with legacy pagesworker" or that's only explicitly for the jekyll builds — haven't found any content around this, but the published docs still mention it "will look for an index.html
, index.md
, or README.md
file as the entry file for your site" so I guess plain MDs still sort of "build" to html deployment, or? …)
There are still "implicit" builds being run even without own actions defined, just tested it — sorry, I understood the changelog announcement somewhat different than what it really was.
Actually no, I would still love some clarification for that.
As the build limits were for non-action builds. Builds with actions, no matter if implicit or custom workflow all incur minutes against the allotment:
Your GitHub Pages site is built and deployed with a GitHub Actions workflow. For more information, see "Viewing workflow run history". Note: GitHub Actions is free for public repositories. Usage charges apply for private and internal repositories that go beyond the monthly allotment of free minutes. For more information, see "Usage limits, billing, and administration".
So with the legacy pagesworker gone and all builds now happening via actions infrastructure, any build limits are now imposed via runner minutes. Does the quoted "10 builds per hour" limit apply in addition to any actions allotment?
@janbrasna Thanks so much for opening an issue! I'll get this triaged for review ✨
Thanks for opening an issue! We've triaged this issue for technical review by a subject matter expert :eyes:
@janbrasna Hello! Thank you for your patience while our SME team reviewed ✨
Our SMEs would like to keep the information documentation you highlighted regarding the soft limits as is. They are defined to set the baseline for what we consider "abuse" and give us permission to take down a site causing troubles. For this reason, I'll be closing this issue 💛
Sure, just wanted to ping if they are still current with the recent worker sunset. Thanks for taking the time to confirm it is indeed still valid and sorry for raising this unnecessarily!
@janbrasna No need to apologize! 💛

Additional information
Now the builds are only run using actions infrastructure. Does the limit of numbers of runs still apply? Or is it limited by available runner minutes only?
(Or that limit of runs is solely for the implicit pages builds in actions without an explicit workflow file?)
