## TL;DR

Upgrade deployctl and retest. deployctl deploy ignoring the --prod option was fixed in v1.13.1.

## Steps

1. Issue denoland/deployctl#353 (closed, 6 comments): After deploying with said command, upon visiting the Deno Deploy's dashboard, it can be seen that no deployment is set as a production environment. When visiting the production website, its responds with "404 - The requested deployment does not exist." Users have to manually promote an environment to production through the dashboard. `deployctl deployments redeploy --prod` fails saying that the project does not have a production environment and preview environment's ID has to be manually set in order to actually promote.

2. `deployctl deploy` ignoring the --prod option was fixed in v1.13.1. Upgrade deployctl and retest.
