I’m trying to deploy an Ionic/Angular application, but I already added the platforms folder in my repository, and it has some modifications, so I’d like to disable the “cordova prepare” and just build it.  
I just found the “disable prepare before build”, but when it tries to build the prepare it’s automatically triggered.

Hi there @Ezoom_Webmaster!

You can set this inside the .ylm actually 🙂  
If you edit this step in the yml mode like this: `run_if: false`

Then it should be disabled 😉
