Description

Hello. If I understand correctly (correct me if I don´t please), if I commit to master I should expect two actions to be triggered, the custom one from the yml file and the pages build and deployment from github itself right? I have created the yml workflow file under .github/workflows/, set up the deployment to be from gh-pages branch but when I commit to master, gh-pages remains empty so I get a 404 when I go to my pages url

This is how the repo pages section is configured:

Thanks in advance

Research direction
Check the workflow file and GitHub Pages settings to ensure the gh pages branch is correctly used as the deployment branch and that the action properly pushes the built site.
