fix: Tailored turbo-ignore deprecation notice for Vercel users (#12385)

anthonyshew · web-flow · commit 4b2eae6eedaa · 2026-03-18T19:21:41.000Z
## Summary - When `turbo-ignore` runs on Vercel (`VERCEL=1`), the deprecation notice now points users to [Vercel's built-in project skipping](https://vercel.com/docs/monorepos#skipping-unaffected-projects) instead of `turbo query affected` - Non-Vercel environments continue to see the existing `turbo query affected` guidance Vercel users don't need to adopt `turbo query affected` as a migration path since Vercel already has first-class support for skipping unaffected projects. Sending them to the right docs reduces friction.
