Was there a reason to focus on *.py files?

There was a problem hiding this comment.
The goal of this command is to trigger ReadTheDocs builds only when documentation files are modified.
The pygmt directory contains only three types of files: *.py, *.txt (in the pygmt/data subdirectory), and *.dvc (in the pygmt/tests/baseline subdirectory). The pygmt/tests/baseline subdirectory is already excluded by the rule below. Therefore, changing pygmt/**/*.py to pygmt/ has no practical effect.
