hey there, you can use a .vercelignore file - https://vercel.com/docs/deployments/vercel-ignore

that might work

or perhaps https://vercel.com/docs/deployments/deploy-hooks

my question is - why don't you want a new deployment? surely it will just be exactly the same as the last one if the readme changes

it did not work 😭

uh idk deploying everytime the readme is updated seems silly to me

is there a reason I should do it?

Unless your readme updating is so frequent that the increase in deployments interferes with your business, just let it be

like its more that additional deployments likely arent costing you anything

so there isnt really any reason why you would want to prevent a deployment

because it doesnt really affect anything if theres a new deployment, unless there’s something im missing

ah I see

think I have ptsd from when deployments on a java project took 13 minutes per build 😅
