Incorporating 5 updates
To bring in applicable changes that have been made to PGD 5, rebase this branch against develop and force-push. Be sure to review changes for areas that should be updated for 5.6. When resolving conflicts, defer to 5 except when changes in this branch are necessary to support 5.6.
Merging this branch
When PGD 5.6 is released, follow this procedure to complete the separation of documenation for 5 and 5.6:
- Rebase one last time (see above)
- Bring the 5 subdirectory back into the source tree:
git checkout develop product_docs/docs/pgd/5/ git commit -m "restore PGD 5 docs" git push
- Immediately merge this branch into develop.
- On a new branch off of develop:
- Rewrite all
/pgd/latest/...
links inproduct_docs/docs/pgd/5/**/*.mdx
to/pgd/5/...
- Fix any redirect collisions that show up during a build (these will be redirects of the form
/bdr/...
that appear in both 5 and 5.6 trees)
- Rewrite all
