How to generate documentation for older versions locally

Archives Ansible Project

I'm back working at a site where they've decided to pin their Ansible
version to a given commit from around Sept 25, so v1.3.0+, but it was
not picked in any of the v1.3.x point releases. Still, pre-v1.4.

How can I generate a private documentation subsite from the git source?

Thanks,

Javier

Basically checkout the SHA you want and “make webdocs” after installing python-sphinx.

Disclaimer: We are however marking any new features with “new in version”, so this shouldn’t be /quite/ needed in most cases, as you’d also be missing out on some corrections and extrapolations.

Thanks a lot.
