 If you always want to use the latest features but avoid breaking changes, you can replace the version with
 `lycheeverse/lychee-action@v1`.
 
-### Alternative approach:
-
-This will check all repository links during any git push event and for all pull
-requests. If there's an error, it will fail the action. This has the benefit of
-ensuring that during a Pull Request, no link is added that is broken and any
-existing link will be caught if they become broken. Save this under
-`.github/workflows/links-fail-fast.yml`:

-You may want to add additional arguments to the above. In particular, if you're testing a site directly from the file system (as in the above), you'll likely want to set the argument `--base .` to ensure that **all links** (including root-relative paths) in the files are tested. You don't need to do this if you're testing a hosted site.
