This is most likely just poor communication on my part. The "newdocs" branch is a topic branch where we can break the current documentation without delaying the next beta. If you have changes that need to go into the beta, they can be put in the master branch and we will deal with any potential conflicts when they appear, but if they do not, and especially if you are participating in the Qt 5 documentation clean-up, it would be great if you could commit to "newdocs" so we working against the same version of the code. The main conflicts we're worried about now is work on pages that are deleted in the new structure for instance or duplicate work, which would become much more visible if everyone working to make the Qt 5 documentation great are on the same branch. The branch will go away and be merged into master once its contents are considered usable, so this is in no way meant to be a permanent solution. Hopefully that will not take too long.
