There is a much better approach to getting a Google Docs favicon than putting a favicon image in a repo-based folder:

<link rel="icon" type="image/x-icon" href="https://t3.gstatic.com/faviconV2?client=SOCIAL&type=FAVICON&fallback_opts=TYPE,SIZE,URL&url=https://docs.google.com/document/u/0/&size=16">

This example uses the well-loved-and-known Google Favicon V2 API that lives on the obscure origin t3.gstatic.com.

If you ever need to change the favicon URL, all you have to do is update the &url= parameter.

Also, if you ever need a favicon that (in my opinion) would be more appropriate, here it is:

<link rel="icon" type="image/x-icon" href="https://t3.gstatic.com/faviconV2?client=SOCIAL&type=FAVICON&fallback_opts=TYPE,SIZE,URL&url=https://myapps.classlink.com/&size=16">

This is the favicon of the Classlink login page, which on a personal computer just redirects to the Classlink launchpad page.
