Restore RC tag triggers in deploy.yml — RC builds belong in Yoast-dist#295
Merged
Conversation
PR #283 added `'!*-RC*'` / `'!*-rc*'` to the tag-trigger list under the mistaken assumption that the dist repo's main branch should only carry final releases. Looking at the dist history, every prior RC (1.18-RC1 through 1.18-RC7) was already published there as a "Release x.y-RCn" commit on main — the dist repo is the install target for internal consumers and is meant to carry RC builds alongside final releases. The exclusion silently skipped Deploy for 1.19-RC2/RC3/RC4 (the RC1 tag slipped through because it points at a commit predating the filter), so Yoast-dist is now stale for those iterations. Remove the filter; from the next RC tag push onwards, Deploy will fire and publish to `Yoast-dist@main` as before. Backfilling RC2/RC3/RC4 in the dist repo would require re-pushing those tags (or triggering Deploy manually with the right ref), which is a separate one-time chore — out of scope for this revert.

PR #283 added
'!*-RC*'/'!*-rc*'todeploy.yml's tag-trigger list under the mistaken assumption that the dist repo's main branch should only carry final releases. The dist repo history shows that's not the convention — every prior RC (1.18-RC1through1.18-RC7) was already published there as a "Release x.y-RCn" commit on main, alongside the final "Release 1.18".Result of the bad filter: Deploy silently skipped
1.19-RC2,1.19-RC3, and1.19-RC4tag pushes. (1.19-RC1slipped through and did deploy, because it points atcdb5d0b— a commit predating the filter merge.)Remove the filter. From the next RC tag push onwards, Deploy will fire and publish to

There's no in-flight RC for this to be validated against — coverage available now:
deploy.ymldiff and confirm the'!*-RC*'/'!*-rc*'exclusions are removed from the tag-trigger list.actionlint/ CI passes (workflow file still parses).First real-world validation happens on the next plugin release cycle's RC1 — its tag push should trigger Deploy and produce a
