Manual publication workflow

It is straightforward to manually publish texts. I will demonstrate how to do so by publishing some root texts.

Step 1

• first we need to know the file or folder path which we will publish, I will use root/pli/ms

root/pli/ms

Step 2

• navigate to the bilara-data repo.
• checkout the published branch
• make sure it's up to date
• create a new branch from it, in this case I will use publish-root-pli-ms

git checkout published
git pull
git checkout -b publish-root-pli-ms

Step 3

• checkout the files to-be-published from the unpublished branch (uses the path from earlier)
• create a commit containing the checked out files
• push the branch to github

git checkout unpublished root/pli/ms
git commit -a -m "Publishing the Mahasangiti Pali texts"
git push -u origin publish-root-pli-ms

Step 4

• Go to github.com
• Create a Pull Request, from publish-root-pli-ms to published
  • get the branches right!
• Once the pull request has been accepted, the texts are in the published branch!

Unpublishing

To manually unpublish something, delete it from the published branch.
