Github action success!

I just managed to automate updates for a website hosted on AWS on push of a commit to github.

The site is served by nginx running in a docker container.
The source for the site is stored in a private github repo.

I have configured an action based on this stackoverflow post
which connects to the AWS instance and pulls the git repo to refresh the site.

TIL AWS SG rules are limited to 1000

I tried to set up a security group using a prefix-list with more than 5,000 entries and discovered the hard limit of 1000 rules in the AWS Security groups
