Well, just for one, I tried building phobos docs a couple of
days ago while disconnected from the internet; the whole thing
failed because the clones of stable release repos couldn't be
done.
No doubt I'm missing a trick, but it didn't seem very obvious,
on browsing the makefile, what would get me the simple case of
building the development phobos docs using my development dmd,
without needing to worry about any of the other options out
there.
Yah, you'd need to pass LATEST=2.067.1 in the command line. Then
the build process won't need to connect to the internet to fetch
the latest version.
Could you please make a pull request with the explanations you
wish you had?
Andrei
