Description
This PR improves the documentation preview cleanup workflow to handle stale previews more effectively.
Changes
deployments: writepermissionWhy This Change?
The current workflow only triggers when a PR closes. If the workflow didn't exist when old PRs were closed, or if it failed, those previews remain forever. Currently, there are 20 stale preview folders taking up 2.3 GB in the
gh-pagesbranch.This improvement will automatically clean up those stale previews on the first scheduled run or when manually triggered.
Note
This keeps the critical "delete history" pattern to prevent the
.gitfolder from growing excessively large due to large documentation builds.
