Update the documentation to communicate Focal is supported in the development.

Tim Abbott 4e421ebe12 scripts: Move inline-email-css from tools to scripts.
We'll be soon documenting a production workflow that involves using
it, and that means it needs to live under scripts/ (since tools/ isn't
present in release tarballs).

David Rosa 3fb2339511 docs: Fix formatting of warnings.
Fixes warning formatting in testing.md and setup-advanced.md
with reStructured Text so that the warnings stand out.

David Rosa bdbc384de5 docs: Reduce the number of apparently broken links on github.
- Updated 260+ links from ".html" to ".md" to reduce the number of issues
reported about hyperlinks not working when viewing docs on Github.
- Removed temporary workaround that suppressed all warnings reported
by sphinx build for every link ending in ".html".

Details:
The recent upgrade to recommonmark==0.5.0 supports auto-converting
".md" links to ".html" so that the resulting HTML output is correct.

Notice that links pointing to a heading i.e. "../filename.html#heading",
were not updated because recommonmark does not auto-convert them.
These links do not generate build warnings and do not cause any issues.
However, there are about ~100 such links that might still get misreported
as broken links.  This will be a follow-up issue.

Background:
docs: pip upgrade recommonmark and CommonMark #13013
docs: Allow .md links between doc pages #11719

Fixes #11087.

Anders Kaseorg 6701c4463c search: Remove now unnecessary tsearch_extra dependency.
Now that we're implemented tsearch_extras in pure postgres, we no
longer need a custom extension.  This should help us considerably, as
it means we no longer need to ship custom apt packages at all.

Fixes #467.

Tim Abbott abc7a00d35 Revert "docs: Update .html links to .md."
This doesn't work without the CommonMark upgrade.

2019-04-05 17:58:54 -07:00
Samuel Searles-Bryant c87893feea docs: Update .html links to .md.
Sphinx/ReadTheDocs supports automatically translating links written as
to `.md` files to point to the corresponding `.html` files, so this
migration does not change the resulting HTML output in ReadTheDocs.
But it does fix apparent broken links on GitHub.

This doesn't prevent people from reading the documentation on GitHub
(so doesn't mitigate the fact that some rtd-specific syntax does not
render properly on GH), but it will prevent us from getting erroneous
issues reported about the hyperlinks not working.

Fixes: #11087.

Tim Abbott fac875a922 docs: Eliminate most development manual install docs.
This documentation had a tendency to bitrot, and in any case now that
we have tooling for doing Fedora (etc.) from provision, it's likely
the case that adding other Linux/UNIX distros we care about to
provision would not be difficult and is a better path than maintaining
this manually-curated duplicate of `tools/provision`.

Further, even if this documentation was maintained, one would still
end up wanting to run `provision` after rebasing a branch, so it was
never particularly practical for extended development.

Tim Abbott 5371589c76 setup-advanced: Remove broken links for old tsearch_extras packages.
It appears Luke's Dropbox folder/shared link that used to host some
tsearch_extras binaries was removed.  It wasn't very high-value
regardless, because most of the platforms involved are deprecated, the
ones that don't generally have a PPA, and building from source is
pretty easy.  So, we just remove these options from the documentation.

While we're at it, make clear we only support direct installation on
Ubuntu LTS.

Fixes #9863.

Previous versions of these links were removed earlier today because

Internet Archive.  These are the current equivalents.

Harshit Bansal e75f0c1ee4 requirements: Rename requirements files.
This commit renames various source requirements files like `dev.txt`,
`mypy.txt` etc to `dev.in`, `mypy.in` etc and various locked requirements
files like `dev_lock.txt`, `mypy_lock.txt` etc to `dev.txt`, `mypy.txt`
etc. This will help in emphasizing to the user that *.in are actually
input to `update-locked-requirements` tool which should be run after
updating any of these.

Mohd Ali Rizwi 66d658d7f1 docs: Use `git clone -c` to set `git pull` to rebase by default.
This updates the developer documentation to recommend `git clone -c`
to set the git pull mode to be rebase by default in the repository
configuration.

The hope is that this will help minimize how often new contributors
end up accidentally messing up their PRs by using `git pull`.

Tweaked by tabbott to fix broken links and optimize the language.

Fixes: #7022.

David Rosa Tamsen 7072fa5b37 docs: Reorganize developer docs to improve navigation.
This commit helps reduce clutter on the navigation sidebar.
Creates new directories and moves relevant files into them.
Modifies index.rst, symlinks, and image paths accordingly.

This commit also enables expandable/collapsible navigation items,
renames files in docs/development and docs/production,
modifies /tools/test-documentation so that it overrides a theme setting,
Also updates links to other docs, file paths in the codebase that point
to developer documents, and files that should be excluded from lint tests.

Note that this commit does not update direct links to
zulip.readthedocs.io in the codebase; those will be resolved in an
upcoming follow-up commit (it'll be easier to verify all the links
once this is merged and ReadTheDocs is updated).

Fixes #5265.
