Awkward wording in "not yet deployed" message

[nealrichardson]

This reads awkwardly to me:

publisher/extensions/vscode/webviews/homeView/src/components/EvenEasierDeploy.vue

Line 169 in f909de6

>update that previous deployment</a

Maybe "Link an existing deployment" or "Link an existing project"? Or something better.

Maybe "Link an existing deployment" or "Link an existing project"

A worry I have with the "link" language is that it is not publishing focused. "update" helps connect with what a user already wants to do while using Publisher - publish an update to an existing piece of content.

What do you think of something this?

Is this content already deployed? Update the existing deployment.

Or is the "update" wording the bit that reads awkwardly to you?

"Link" doesn't sound wrong to me because that's all I'm doing when I click that link: I'm saying "here's the content on Connect I've already deployed, associate this workspace with that". But regardless, we're making assumptions about what "the user" is thinking when they see this. I'm sharing my experience having seen this as a user, that this looks jargony and off, but I'm also probably not the most typical "user". The solution is probably not for us to debate word choice but instead to do some actual usability testing and see how it plays in the wild.
