| # Demo workflow for tagging GitHub commits with existing preview URLs | |
| # | |
| # For this to work preview URLs must be: | |
| # | |
| # 1. Per commit, so that even if new commits are pushed to the same branch the old build override URL still serves the original commit | |
| # 2. Live for at least one week, ideally 2 weeks | |
| # | |
| # Rolling your own preview URLs is complex. We strongly recommend using [Vercel](https://app.meticulous.ai/docs/cloud-replay) or | |
| # the [Meticulous GitHub action to run Meticulous tests](https://app.meticulous.ai/docs/github-actions-v2). | |
