Current behavior 😯

The Source Code links on https://mui.com/getting-started/templates/ result in a 404 page.

Expected behavior 🤔

With PR #30757 the files have moved. While the path in the docs was adjusted, it is not deployed yet. It is annotated with #default-branch-switch, however the current version links to the master branch.

The current shape of #31425 prevents this to happen again in the future.

Hey, as I mentioned in the original bug report, the path had been adjusted in the docs, just not deployed yet. The deployment of v5.5.0 a couple of days ago fixed this problem.

Let me try to describe it again, to make it more understandable:

PR https://github.com/mui/material-ui/pull/30757 moved some files which are linked from the help page.
Therefore the links obviously broke. No caching problem.
While the PR also change the links in the help pages, these are only deployed when a new version is released, and not on every commit (which is the correct thing to do, but caused the bug nonetheless)
The release of v5.5.0 deployed the help pages with updated links which is why the problem is fixed now.

How to prevent this? If files linked from help pages are changed, immediately after merging a release should be done to update the help pages.
