Description

Quarto Manuscript instructions are excellent … until the Push and Publish instructions. These do not provide anything like the preceding step-by-step detail, and there’s many a slip ‘twixt cup and lip. Perhaps, please, you could add a page about how exactly to commit and push? This was not simple: setting up security, order of operations for commit and push,. Then the set-up required before a Manuscript automatically becomes a GitHub website is another set of steps, such as configuring a publishing source.. That’s another page, s’il vous plait. Enabling a local Quarto Manuscript to become a global GitHub Website is a valuable break-through, IHMO, copious kudos. BUT please be kind to those of us with a talent for getting thermometer teaspoon kidney.
