Jekyll's GitHub Pages "build" job was failing because it encountered a broken symlink during site generation:

Error: No such file or directory @ rb_check_realpath_internal - /github/workspace/src/nicslu/demo/matrix

Changes

  • Removed src/nicslu/demo/matrix — a symlink pointing to /data/glu/matrix/, a local-only path that exists only on the original developer's machine and is never present on CI runners

The symlink pointed to /data/glu/matrix/ which only exists on the
developer's local machine. Jekyll's GitHub Pages build was failing
with "No such file or directory" when it tried to resolve it.
