[issue12415] Missing: How to checkout the Doc sources
New submission from Philip Olson : I was unable to determine how to download the Python documentation source files (for building via Sphinx) but did figure out the following: hg clone http://hg.python.org/cpython cd cpython/Doc make html Where to get the Doc sources deserves a mention here: http://docs.python.org/dev/documenting/building.html I don't know this topic so won't propose a patch, but building.txt should mention where/how to get 'Doc' before the 'cd Doc' example. -- assignee: docs@python components: Documentation messages: 139147 nosy: docs@python, philip priority: normal severity: normal status: open title: Missing: How to checkout the Doc sources ___ Python tracker <http://bugs.python.org/issue12415> ___ ___ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com

Philip Olson added the comment: Thank you, that patch solves this bug report. However, now I'm not sure which branches we should or must contribute documentation to. Python versions "2.7, 3.2, and 3.3" are now associated to this bug report, so are these the active documentation branches? How is this handled? -- ___ Python tracker <http://bugs.python.org/issue12415> ___ ___ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com

Philip Olson added the comment: I think you should make the commit. Also, the aforementioned [old] Subversion reference for Sphinx is a real issue here. And I think the "Without make" section should link to http://sphinx.pocoo.org/ -- ___ Python tracker <http://bugs.python.org/issue12415> ___ ___ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
