jws.dev changelog
Build output kept out of the repository
The static maps, social cards, site metrics and photo snapshots are all rebuilt from scratch on every build, so they no longer belong in version control.
Four kinds of file were being committed although every build rewrites them: the static map images, the social preview cards, the measured site metrics, and the saved travel photographs. Between them they made up 272 tracked paths, and every build produced a diff whether or not anything had actually changed.
They are ignored now. To prove nothing depended on their being present, I deleted all of them and ran a full build: everything came back, and the thirteen audits passed against it.
