This patch doesn't include a mechanism to fetch the html pages to
/doc/git/html/.git. You should manually clone them. Maybe this
could
handled as a submodule of msysgit?
I'd rather handle it as in git.git, as another branch, and not check
it out in /git/html/, but rather use "git read-tree
--prefix=/tmp/WinGit/share/git/html origin/html", or some such.
This is starting to smell like an opportunity to use the gitlink
stuff,
isn't it?
I'd agree that we could have a submodule in /doc/git/html/. This way,
even users of msysGit and GitMe would benefit.
And we could completely tag a WinGit release. The version of the
html docs included would be defined by the submodule's head in
/doc/git/html. This is what I had in mind when submitting the
patch. Maybe I didn't express this clearly.
I do not yet understand submodules sufficiently. Therefore I didn't
add a patch that actually sets up the submodule in /doc/git/html.
Maybe I'll do so later today.
