Dávid Paksy commented on HBASE-28886:
-------------------------------------
The [https://hbase.apache.org/] website is served based on the the content of
this Git repository: [https://github.com/apache/hbase-site]
The sources of the website are located at:
[https://github.com/apache/hbase/tree/master/src/site]
The website is built with a release and copied over to the hbase-site git
repository.
The asciidoc sources of the Reference Guide are located at:
[https://github.com/apache/hbase/tree/master/src/main/asciidoc]
The Reference Guide is also built (book.html) with a release and copied over to
the hbase-site git repository.
* Latest (close to master) version is here:
[https://github.com/apache/hbase-site/blob/asf-site/book.html]
* The Reference Guides for specific versions are located in respective version
subfolders - e.g 2.4:
[https://github.com/apache/hbase-site/blob/asf-site/2.4/book.html]
But for 2.5, there is no Reference Guide:
[https://github.com/apache/hbase-site/tree/asf-site/2.5]
Actually the asciidoc sources of [HBase Reference
Guide|https://hbase.apache.org/book.html] are *only present on the master*
branch.
These sources were deleted under
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-26933
Looks like this was a deliberate decision to avoid having to maintain the docs
for multiple versions
