I have not seen the Derby SVN. The 'build/' directory
is generated by forrest, so it does not need to be
checked in to SVN.

The resulting docs are usually generated into "build/site/"
then you would copy them to your "site" respository
and commit them.

This is another local directory which is created when one
does 'forrest run' locally to speed document editing and
local viewing via webapp. Again not needed in SVN.

See the top-level of the "incubator" svn for how it is configured
for the Incubator top-level website.

I will be travelling from now on, so it might be difficult
for me to follow up. It would be better to ask questions
on the forrest mailing lists.

See the top-level doc at infrastructure.a.o/howtoparticipate.html

Sorry, I should have been more verbose. forrest source and built files
for http://incubator.apache.org/derby
is in svn.apache.org/repos/asf/incubator/derby/site/trunk.

We haven't been copying files elsewhere. We've just been commiting
changes to build/site inthe svn repository. Then a mentor with access to
the file system visible to the incubator web server does an 'svn update'
to make the web site changes visible. An email explanation of the
process we've been following is at
http://nagoya.apache.org/eyebrowse/ReadMsg?listName=derby-dev@db.apache.org&msgNo=202

Bingo! this is exactly what I needed to know. Thanks!

I'm familiar with the forrest list (am subscribed to it). In this case I
thought the question was specific to an incubator project so thought it
better to post it here.

Thanks again!
