• Switched to rsvg-convert from Inkscape, as Inkscape has become horribly slow (too many fonts, perhaps?). rsvg-convert comes with librsvg.

• Switched to rsync for deploying files, as I started getting “fchmod” errors when using cp to copy to the SMB share. Not sure why it used to work before, as it appears to be a consequence of the remote file system not supporting Unix-style file permissions. (Not due to different versions of SMB, as it was working with the same version one day, then not the next, and there were no intervening updates. Weird)

• Removed paper year from paper-include-path value, as not everyone will have their paper trees organised by year. Safer to assume that the paper root directory exists at the top level of $(ALL_PAPERS_ROOT); use symlinks to achieve this if not.

• Added paper-include-path stylesheet parameter to (Xe)LaTeX rules.
Nigel Stanger committed on 15 Feb 2016
• Removed obsolete LATEX_OPTS variable.
Nigel Stanger committed on 15 Feb 2016
• Removed now-obsolete LaTeX option variables; these have been replaced by explicit LaTeX options embedded within the XML document itself.
Nigel Stanger committed on 15 Feb 2016

• Added explicit GNU cp, as the --update flag is useful for only copying files when needed.

• Added use of lockfile to ensure that there aren’t multiple copies of sitecopy trying to write to the site state file at once. I’m not convinced that this is actually necessary as there should only ever be one instance running at a time, but corruption of the site state file seems to be more common than it should be. We can always remove it again if it doesn’t help.

Nigel Stanger committed on 26 Feb 2014
2014-02-25
• Fixed bug with whitespace in LATEX_OPTS variable that caused LaTeX to ignore the options entirely.
Nigel Stanger committed on 25 Feb 2014
• Switched to using \def instead of \newcommand for pre-\begin{document} definitions, as it seems safer.
Nigel Stanger committed on 25 Feb 2014

Nigel Stanger committed on 24 Feb 2014
2014-02-19
