+## Tips
+
+- Optional ENV variables are created for simple requirements.
+For complex use cases, use `ARGS` and `SSH_CMD_ARGS` to fully configure `rsync` with all possible options.
+- If you need to use multiple steps, eg multi targets deployment, save shared ENV variables in `>> $GITHUB_ENV`.
+Check .github/workflows/e2e.yml for an example
