March 2025: Implemented Website Deployment Automation Script for boostorg/website-v2 to automate website releases and reduce manual deployment steps. The Bash script validates clean local repos, fetches latest changes, merges develop into master, and pushes to master, with a delay for boostorg/boostlook to synchronize with GitHub Actions. This work improves release reliability, speeds up deployment, and provides reproducible, auditable deployment steps across related Boost repos. Commit 95ba9564b362fa114d5f75df91d33cb1c58fb527 ('Scripts to deploy website, via 'git push' (#1689)') anchors the change. No major bugs fixed this month for this repository.
