I am well and truly confused and stuck! I will be away for a week and
wanted to work on some updates to the wiki while not in my office.
I've searched the Directory Server git repositories which might have
held some mdtext files, but couldn't find any!
The documentation pages aren't on git, they are on subversion... Just do :
$ svn co https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/directory/site/trunk/
Good. You have confirmed that I have already found the production source.
I went back through my emails on this subject from more than 2 years
ago, which only referred to the apacheds-wiki subversion repository,
and which still exists. I tried to update my sandbox version and (not
surprisingly) needed to fix some conflicts. At the time I was not a
committer and so others applied my updates for me.
As I worked my way through the conflicting files, I decided to do a
quick online check of the production wiki.
To take just one example, the Advanced User Guide 4.2.3 - Enabling
Access Control has only the simple text "TODO..." I am pretty sure we
updated this page! I certainly have a local version which has some
proper words!
I don't have anything but a TODO atm...
That is very strange, but I learnt a long time ago not to trust my memory.
Therefore, if we all agree the production version of that page is simply
"TODO", then I need to revive/revise my old diffs and get them ready to
commit.
I am very sorry to raise this old subject again. I've meant to do some
work on the wiki for a long time, but life and other projects keep
getting in my way. Now that I'm ready to do a bit of work, I have
ended up so confused I don't know how to get started.
Np, let's figure out what's going on and how to get it working !
Now that I am a project committer, can I simply "svn commit -m blah
<filename>" to make a source change to the wiki? Will my source changes
be automatically propagated to the live wiki server? (I vaguely remember
something about a "staging" server).
Also, while I feel stuck in a loop, it seems like a good time to add
an extra page to the wiki itself... called "How to update this wiki"!
Baffled...
