... I'm not totally certain I follow that, but I believe you are incorrect. Here's what to do: 1) make a new branch (locally). See CG "git for the impatient" for this. 2) run makelsr.py and point to the downloaded snippets. 3) do the security check, then commit the results. Testing comes later; you can always remove the commit if it's bad. 4) nuke your build dir. You've got a fast computer. 5) do a full doc build from scratch. That'll take, what, 8 minutes for you? :) 6) if it doesn't blow up, then either push directly to staging, or upload to rietveld. Don't worry about doing extra checks with patchy. If it passes a doc build from scratch on your computer, then it's highly unlikely to cause a problem at the patchy stage. - Graham _______________________________________________ lilypond-devel mailing list [email protected] https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-devel
