Project is on the branch main. Deployment on branch gh-pages from path: ~./project_name/output at push to main. System: ubuntu 20.04 to wsl2. Which paths(parameters) should be specified for the cp -r command to avto-deploy to github pages? From the log:

    is there a directory called `project_name` in your home directory? or is it somewhere else (in the current directory, for example)? regardless, if it is in your home directory, you should use `~/project_name`, and if it is in the current directory use `./project_name`, you shouldn't be using both ~ and . – Esther May 16 '22 at 14:20

-          cp -r ~./project_name/* ./
+          cp -r ~/project_name/* ./

Instead of ~./, you probably want ~/ to refer to your home directory in an absolute way or ./ to referr to your current directory in a relative way.

  • If I specify: cp -r ~/project_name/* ./, the error is: cp: cannot stat '/home/runner/project_name/*': No such file or directory – Андрей May 18 '22 at 16:41
  • Provided the output in your question, you seems to have forgotten the "work" directory. Try to do `ls` to validate the exista'ce of the path before running all the machinery. Note the possible confusion between `~/work/project_name` and `~/work/project_name/project_name` – Zoyolin May 20 '22 at 00:31
  • If that does answers your issue, you should be able to validate the answer (green tick). – Zoyolin May 20 '22 at 00:34
