In order to leverage github/wiki look&feel in combination with github pull request process we have to use two git repositories in our workflow:
1) Technical git repository https://github.com/rusefi/rusefi_documentation is used to submit content using fork&pull request process
2) user-facing https://github.com/rusefi/rusefi.wiki.git repository is displayed to viewers at https://github.com/rusefi/rusefi/wiki
Jenkins automation merges all changes from technical git into https://github.com/rusefi/rusefi.wiki.git behind the scenes.
For example, in order for user abelom to edit this page:
1) abelom would start editing at https://github.com/rusefi/rusefi_documentation/blob/master/Documentation_Workflow.md which would automatically create a branch in https://github.com/abelom/rusefi_documentation fork
1) once changed are made, abelom would create a Pull Request
3) once that PR is merged into primary rusEfi modified content would appear as https://github.com/rusefi/rusefi_documentation/blob/master/Documentation_Workflow.md
4) within the next 5 minutes automation would sync this page into wiki git and it would be available with nicer layout as https://github.com/rusefi/rusefi/wiki/Documentation_Workflow
Same but in different terms:
1) fork https://github.com/rusefi/rusefi_documentation
2) make your changes
3) PR you changes
4) once PR is merged by one of moderators, your changes would appear at https://github.com/rusefi/rusefi_documentation instantaneously
5) within the next 5 minutes magic happens and changes appear at https://github.com/rusefi/rusefi/wiki
Q: Is there a place where we are holding all images for these documents?
A: We have images in the same repository! Just add your images while editing pages. Please consider using some (any really) folder structure.
For example https://github.com/rusefi/rusefi_documentation/blob/master/FAQ/images/TunerStudio_new_project.png is visible on /wiki/ as https://raw.githubusercontent.com/wiki/rusefi/rusefi/FAQ/images/TunerStudio_new_project.png
Long story short, for images to work good both in technical git and user-facing wiki, we place all .md files into the same root folder.
(More deteils:
Please note that all .md files like https://github.com/rusefi/rusefi_documentation/blob/master/FAQ/HOWTO_quick_start.md are displayed without folder name like https://github.com/rusefi/rusefi/wiki/HOWTO_quick_start which also means
that you need full image path like ``FAQ/images/rusEfi_console/rusEfi_console_start_screen.png`` for image to be rendered properly. This is one of github wiki features which are a bit counter-intuitive to me.
This also means that .md file names have to be unique for the whole.)
Q: what fancy options do we have?
A: we can do collapsable sections & hints sections! see [cranking](cranking)
