+ <h1>Making Updates to the Boost Website Content</h1>
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+ <p>Any boost developer can update the Boost website content between
|
|
|
+ releases.</p>
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+ <ul>
|
|
|
+ <li>You should first make the change in our CVS repository, so it
|
|
|
+ doesn't get lost or overwritten by the next person that updates the
|
|
|
+ page between releases.</li>
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+ <li>
|
|
|
+ You will upload the file(s) by <code>scp</code>'ing to the
|
|
|
+ appropriate subdirectory of
|
|
|
+ <code>shell.sf.net:/home/groups/b/bo/boost/htdocs/</code>. For
|
|
|
+ example, to update the page you are reading, I would issue
|
|
|
+<pre>
|
|
|
+scp updating_the_website.html david_abrahams@shell.sf.net:/home/groups/b/bo/boost/htdocs/more/
|
|
|
+</pre>
|
|
|
+ </li>
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+ <li>
|
|
|
+ It is <b>crucial</b> to ensure that you set group write permission on
|
|
|
+ every file you upload. If you don't do that, nobody else will be able
|
|
|
+ to change it, which is particularly deadly at release time. If you
|
|
|
+ are on Unix or Cygwin, you may be able to do that with a
|
|
|
+ <tt>chmod</tt> command before uploading the file. The absolutely
|
|
|
+ failsafe thing to do is to <tt>ssh</tt> into <tt>shell.sf.net</tt>
|
|
|
+ and do the <tt>chmod</tt> there. The files also need to have general
|
|
|
+ read permission, and any directories should have general execute
|
|
|
+ permission and the "set user or group ID on execution" (s) bit should
|
|
|
+ also be set. If you're not touching any directories, you can do it
|
|
|
+ all with one command, e.g.
|
|
|
+<pre>
|
|
|
+ssh david_abrahams@shell.sf.net "chmod a+r,g+rw /home/groups/b/bo/boost/htdocs/more/updating_the_website.html"
|
|
|
+</pre>
