This is a fairly recent change. See the links below for the discussion:

https://github.com/swcarpentry/lesson-template/issues/159

I was similarly startled by the change. I had to change the
documentation I had written for the r-novice-inflammation, and we had
to fix many of the current PRs because I had previously taught our
experienced R contributors that they should always commit the html as
well.

But this brings up a larger point: should we create some sort of guide
specifically aimed at the lesson maintainers? It makes it much harder
for us to guide new contributors when we have to constantly monitor
multiple mailing lists and GitHub Issue threads to stay current.
