fix: prevent empty deployments and handle workflow changes

jonphipps · jonphipps · commit 8de70398631b · 2025-06-21T19:04:05.000-04:00
- Add .github/workflows/ changes to trigger full rebuild
- Add safety check to prevent deploying empty directories
- Skip deployment if no content available to prevent wiping existing sites

This fixes the issue where workflow changes caused empty deployments.
