Plugin not updating files

General Issues & Bug Reporting (Fab)

Summary

My listing, https://www.fab.com/listings/fbe2cfc8-c483-4c9b-a2ab-5d9090b1d6a4, was provided with a link to the files. This link was a GitHub repo, GitHub - jjasundry/SmartAsserts: A plugin for Unreal Engine 5 that adds asserts that crashes the PIE session instead of the entire editor.. When I update the repo and tell the listing to re-submit for review, Fab doesn’t actually update their files from my repo. When I install the plugin to an engine and look at it in file explorer, it installed an old version.

What type of bug are you experiencing?

Plugins

Steps to Reproduce

Install this plugin to an engine using the Epic Launcher: https://www.fab.com/listings/fbe2cfc8-c483-4c9b-a2ab-5d9090b1d6a4
Compare the files installed with the GitHub repo (switch to the branch matching the Unreal version the plugin was installed to): GitHub - jjasundry/SmartAsserts: A plugin for Unreal Engine 5 that adds asserts that crashes the PIE session instead of the entire editor.

Expected Result

The files installed onto the computer and in the repo match perfectly.

Observed Result

The files installed onto the computer are a few commits behind the files on the repo.

Platform

Epic Launcher, GitHub, Microsoft Edge

Operating System

Windows

Update:
I tried it on a different machine that had never installed the plugin, and it still installed the outdated version. Because of this I know it ISN’T my library not updating in the launcher.

they only update the files when the url has changed and name of the file as well:

I never used GitHub but if the url and file name doesn’t change, their system won’t detect a project update most likely.

We usually use google drive or mega.
