Docs GitHub Workflow
When someone submits a change via GitHub, an Evergreen developer should follow these steps to review it:
- Note how many new commits are in the pull request – you will need this information later.
- If you haven't yet, add the main Evergreen repo (on GitHub) as a remote
git remote add github-evergreen https://github.com/evergreen-library-system/Evergreen.git
- Update your local master branch to reflect any changes from "origin"
git checkout master; git fetch origin; git pull origin master
- Fetch the pull request branch into a new local branch
git fetch github-evergreen pull/[PULL_REQ_NUMBER]/head:[BRANCHNAME]
- Cherry pick the relevant commits into your local copy of the master branch.
git cherry-pick -s [BRANCHNAME]~[Number of commits]..[BRANCHNAME]
(for example, if you are bringing in two commits from the survey-docs branch, rungit cherry-pick survey-docs~2..survey-docs) - Test build the changed AsciiDoc file + the nav.adoc file(s) that include it -
perl ./generate_docs.pl –base-url http://examplesite.org/prod- Check to see if there are any images posted to the Github conversation that have not been committed yet. Add those to
Evergreen/docs/modules/<module_name>/assets/images/media/- Also look for other AsciiDoc warnings or errors - Make any corrections (via additional commits, if needed) - Use
git logto make sure everything looks good. - Make sure that the commit message begins with "Docs:" - Make sure the commit message includes the relevant Launchpad bug number - Example: "Resolves LP#1234567" - (If the GitHub author does not match the author's identity in git.evergreen-ils.org, consider fixing it with
git commit --amend --author="NAME <email>") - When you are confident your local master branch is ready:
git push origin master- Backport to previous EG versions as appropriate -
git checkout rel_3_8-
git cherry-pick master~[Number of commits]..master''
- Email docs list and/or pull requester to say it is done (or with other feedback)
- Close pull request on GitHub
