added version specific websites #3459

[udnisap]

I only implemented the version specific docs. What are we going to do with the default docs and how to navigate between docs?

Cool! How did you test this?

[mkonicek]

What's the value of VERSION if we're on master?

[mkonicek]

I'm on branch 0.17-stable locally and this returns v0.3.11.

[udnisap]

sorry it should have been git describe --abbrev=0 --tags

[udnisap]

I sent initially to get some feedback as there were some clarifications.
I didnt test the whole flow. I tested by commenting out part of the shell script (website/publish.sh) and running in my local.

I commented out the git rebase as well. I got an error on this. Do we need this??

Since there are docs in the current gh-pages branch this will have it. We might have to cleanup the repo and have a index manually. I can run this and send a PR to gh-pages

Is the bot having some issues? I did not update the pull request for a while

[satya164]

@udnisap Yeah. Ignore the bot.

git describe returns the version of git for me so I don't see how this code can work. Are you still interested in working on this?

[bestander]

Thanks for the contribution, @udnisap.
I am taking control of this feature today and I like your intention.

I'll close this PR though because the work will be coming from the internal codebase and will require some more back and forward review process.
It affects the web server file structure after all.
