(Note: Sphinx versions higher than 1.1.2 are required.)

A 2 branch system has been implemented to maintain a clean process of rebuilding this site.

1. The source branch contains the restructured text documents and Sphinx configuration used to build the site. All direct editing of files should be made in the source branch.

2. The master branch contains the processed and published web content that is derived by Sphinx from the source branch. These files should not be editted directly.

0. Set up ssh keys for git: https://help.github.com/articles/generating-ssh-keys

1. Fork this repository (upper right hand corner of this site)

2. Clone your fork

   git clone [email protected]:yourusername/ucb-rdn.github.com

3. Add this repository as a remote called upstream

   cd ucb-rdn.github.com git remote add upstream [email protected]:ucb-rdn/ucb-rdn.github.com

4. Create a branch called master that tracks the upstream master branch

   git fetch upstream git branch master --track upstream/master

1. Checkout the source branch

   git checkout source

2. Synchronize your branch with the repository (either pull or fetch and merge)

   git pull upstream

3. Create a branch to contain your change

   git checkout -b add_some_info

4. Make your changes in this branch

5. Test you changes by using the gh-preview target

   make gh-preview

   This will build a version of the site in the gh-build directory of your branch, add_some_info. You can load it directly in a local browser.

6. Repeat steps 4-5 until satisfied.

7. Once satisfied with the source RST files, push your branch to the repo. Be sure to synchronize with any possible changes to the source branch first.

   git fetch upstream
   git rebase upstream/source
   git push upstream add_some_info
   

8. Issue a pull request by going to your branch on the repo and clicking the "Pull Request" button.

1. Synchronize your repository with the remote repo

   git fetch upstream

2. Checkout the pull_request_branch

   git checkout -b pull_request_branch upstream/pull_request_branch

3. Test the changes by using the gh-preview target

   make gh-preview

   This will build a version of the site in the gh-build directory in your branch, pull_request_branch. You can load it directly in a local browser.

4. If satisfied, merge the pull_request_branch into the source branch. Be sure to synchronize with the remote repo first.

   git checkout source
   git fetch upstream
   git rebase upstream/source
   git merge pull_request_branch
   

5. If there are no conflicts, push this to the repo

   git push upstream source

6. Republish the pages with the gh-publish target.

   make gh-publish
