Failed or canceled builds now have better feedback clearly displayed on the Vercel dashboard in the deployment details page.
The following build failures now have more helpful error messages:
- An invalid
vercel.json
configuration - Canceled builds due to the
ignore build step
- A newer commit in the branch triggering a more up-to-date deployment
