But the point is to be able to update the site with documentation fixes while keeping the rest of the site about the released software. The only way to do that is with documentation-only branch it sounds like, and it does not matter what SCM you use for that. It's that or we agree never to publis

BTW.: I don't see any value in the SNAPSHOT site. Users will always want to look at the site of the release, since that is what they are using. 2014-07-25 11:34 GMT+02:00 Benedikt Ritter : > You're probably refering to the Dependency Information report, I've posted > on the other thread. I think
