Настройка источника публикации для сайта GitHub Pages

About publishing sources

You can publish your site when changes are pushed to a specific branch, or you can write a GitHub Actions workflow to publish your site. To use GitHub Actions as a publishing source for GitHub Pages, a site administrator must enable GitHub Actions for your GitHub Enterprise Server instance. For more information, see "Enabling GitHub Actions for GitHub Enterprise Server."

If you do not need any control over the build process for your site, we recommend that you publish your site when changes are pushed to a specific branch. You can specify which branch and folder to use as your publishing source. The source branch can be any branch in your repository, and the source folder can either be the root of the repository (/) on the source branch or a /docs folder on the source branch. Whenever changes are pushed to the source branch, the changes in the source folder will be published to your GitHub Pages site.

If you want to use a build process other than Jekyll or you do not want a dedicated branch to hold your compiled static files, we recommend that you write a GitHub Actions workflow to publish your site. GitHub Enterprise Server provides starter workflows for common publishing scenarios to help you write your workflow.

Warning: If your site administrator has enabled Public Pages, GitHub Pages sites are publicly available on the internet, even if the repository for the site is private or internal. If you have sensitive data in your site's repository, you may want to remove the data before publishing. For more information, see "Configuring GitHub Pages for your enterprise" and "About repositories."

Publishing from a branch

Make sure the branch you want to use as your publishing source already exists in your repository.
On GitHub Enterprise Server, navigate to your site's repository.
Under your repository name, click Settings. If you cannot see the "Settings" tab, select the dropdown menu, then click Settings.
In the "Code and automation" section of the sidebar, click Pages.
Under "Build and deployment", under "Source", select Deploy from a branch.
Under "Build and deployment", use the branch dropdown menu and select a publishing source.
Optionally, use the folder dropdown menu to select a folder for your publishing source.
Click Save.

Troubleshooting publishing from a branch

Note: If your repository contains symbolic links, you will need to publish your site using a GitHub Actions workflow. For more information about GitHub Actions, see "GitHub Actions documentation."

Notes:

If you are publishing from a branch and your site has not published automatically, make sure someone with admin permissions and a verified email address has pushed to the publishing source.
Commits pushed by a GitHub Actions workflow that uses the GITHUB_TOKEN do not trigger a GitHub Pages build.

If you choose the docs folder on any branch as your publishing source, then later remove the /docs folder from that branch in your repository, your site won't build and you'll get a page build error message for a missing /docs folder. For more information, see "Troubleshooting Jekyll build errors for GitHub Pages sites."

Publishing with a custom GitHub Actions workflow

Note: Publishing your GitHub Pages site with a custom GitHub Actions workflow is in beta and subject to change.

To configure your site to publish with GitHub Actions:

On GitHub Enterprise Server, navigate to your site's repository.
Under your repository name, click Settings. If you cannot see the "Settings" tab, select the dropdown menu, then click Settings.
In the "Code and automation" section of the sidebar, click Pages.
Under "Build and deployment", under "Source", select GitHub Actions.
GitHub Enterprise Server will suggest several starter workflows. If you already have a workflow to publish your site, you can skip this step. Otherwise, choose one of the options to create a GitHub Actions workflow. For more information about creating your custom workflow, see "Creating a custom GitHub Actions workflow to publish your site."

GitHub Pages does not associate a specific workflow to the GitHub Pages settings. However, the GitHub Pages settings will link to the workflow run that most recently deployed your site.

Creating a custom GitHub Actions workflow to publish your site

For more information about GitHub Actions, see "GitHub Actions documentation."

When you configure your site to publish with GitHub Actions, GitHub Enterprise Server will suggest starter workflows for common publishing scenarios. The general flow of a workflow is to:

Trigger whenever there is a push to the default branch of the repository or whenever the workflow is run manually from the Actions tab.
Use the actions/checkout action to check out the repository contents.
If required by your site, build any static site files.
Use the actions/upload-pages-artifact action to upload the static files as an artifact.
If the workflow was triggered by a push to the default branch, use the actions/deploy-pages action to deploy the artifact. This step is skipped if the workflow was triggered by a pull request.

The starter workflows use a deployment environment called github-pages. If your repository does not already include an environment called github-pages, the environment will be created automatically. We recommend that you add a deployment protection rule so that only the default branch can deploy to this environment. For more information, see "Using environments for deployment."
