GHA - R Build Blogdown

Source: https://github.com/r-lib/actions/tree/master/examples#build-blogdown-site

usethis::use_github_action("blogdown")

This example builds a blogdown site for a repository and then deploys the book via netlify. It uses renv to ensure the package versions remain consistent across builds. You will need to run renv::snapshot() locally and commit the renv.lock file before using this workflow, see Using renv with Continous Integration for additional information. Note you need to add a NETLIFY_AUTH_TOKEN a NETLIFY_SITE_ID secret to your repository for the netlify deploy (see Managing secrets section for details).
