There is in effect, no relationship. The doc folder may be included in bund=
led releases, depending on the package manager, but the website is fully co=
ntrolled by updating http://github.com/fontforge/fontforge.github.io



So if you wanted to sync the two, it=92d have to be done manually. Note tha=
t repo has both the new (markdown) files, but also a copy of the old (plain=
 html) website, which probably more closely resembles the docs you find in =
the main repo. There=92s probably a lot that could be done to improve on th=
at.

Subject: [fontforge-devel] Relationship between doc directory and fontforge=
.github.io

In my push requests that affected documentation I have made changes in
the doc/html directory of the repository. The website repository has
versions of those files in markdown. Can someone -- briefly, and at a
high level -- walk me through the relationship between those two
repository directories? No "judgment" is implied, I am just not sure
whether I've missed some automated conversion script, or if the idea is
to use a separate tool at release time, or just do a diff with the last
release's commit and update manually.

I'm interested in working on some of the items in meta/TODO.md --
particularly the anchor problem. I don't yet know much about Jekyll but
I'm pretty adept with Pandoc at this point. But I would benefit from
some general issue of how the whole system is intended to work in
relation to new releases.
