I have the following filter config: ```auto filters: branches: ignore: gh-pages ``` However, when I push to `gh-pages`, CircleCi starts a job that fails with the following logs: > #!/bin/sh -eo pipefail > # No configuration was found in your project. Please refer to [https://circleci.com/docs/2.0/](https://circleci.com/docs/2.0/) to get started with your configuration. > # > # ------- > # Warning: This configuration was auto-generated to show you the message above. > # Don’t rerun this job. Rerunning will have no effect. > false > Exited with code 1 Here’s a [link](https://circleci.com/gh/AztecProtocol/AZTEC/1474) to the said job. Is there something I’m doing wrong or is this normal behaviour (to start a job that always fails)? ---

Hi Paul. It looks like that tree doesn’t have a config file, which is why you are getting that error [https://github.com/AztecProtocol/AZTEC/tree/1c66871801262c22d85a3afc5419f72103dee07d](https://github.com/AztecProtocol/AZTEC/tree/1c66871801262c22d85a3afc5419f72103dee07d) If we can’t see the config, we don’t know to not try and run a job.
