Publishing changes

The contents of the _book directory needs to be pushed out to the gh-pages branch of the repository.

Releasing a new version of the documentation

In this example we'll be releasing version 15.3.0 and setting up master so any new changes from this point go to 16.1.0.

Create a branch for your existing version that you will be releasing

git checkout -b 15.3.0
git push upstream 15.3.0

Create (clone) a new pipeline for this branch on snap-ci.com so any new changes to the 15.3.0 branch are pushed to the correct directory on gh-pages branch.

Now bump the version in user-ci.sh on the master branch.

Contributing

Releasing a new version of the documentation

Bump the version in user-ci.sh on the master branch.

$ git checkout master
$ vim user-ci.sh                  # Bump version in `version` to new version e.g.`version=16.3.0`.
$ git add user-ci.sh
$ git commit -m 'Bump version'
$ git push upstream master

build.go.cd will create 16.3.0 folder under gh-pages branch and site will be updated.

Once the version is published link the current to new version.

$ git fetch --all
$ git checkout gh-pages
$ git merge upstream/gh-pages
$ ln -sf 16.3.0 current        # current is now a symlink to 16.3.0
$ git add current
$ git commit -m 'Link new version to current'
$ git push
