Thanks Shannon, I appreciate the quick response. I guess I'm a little confused. I thought the website lived in the main repo at https://github.com/apache/lucenenet/tree/master/websites/site and I wasn't previously aware of https://github.com/apache/lucenenet-site/
Using a branch in https://github.com/apache/lucenenet-site/ called images could work great. Or even a folder called site-images on the main branch there. What's the difference between https://github.com/apache/lucenenet/tree/master/websites/site and https://github.com/apache/lucenenet-site/ ? How is the one used vs the other? -Ron -----Original Message----- From: Shannon Deminick [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Tuesday, May 18, 2021 6:48 PM To: [email protected] Subject: Re: Good place to store LuceneNet website images? Hi Ron, What about storing them in the docs repo directly? The site's branch is this one https://github.com/apache/lucenenet-site/tree/asf-site but what if we created a branch called "images" or something like that? and then you can references them using the raw.githubusercontent.com domain, for example this is an image in the "master" branch as a raw image that can be referenced in html/markdown: https://raw.githubusercontent.com/apache/lucenenet-site/master/logo/lucene-net-color.png Alternatively, another repo could work too What do you think?
