Docs are now by default rebuilt from scratch, as required to build
conditionalized (i.e. using only:: directive) docs across different
output types. We have pretty small docset, so that's still rather fast.
However, if that's a concern, incremental rebuilds can be used by
passing "FORCE=" (nothing after =) as a make parameter. This will work
when using the same output type (e.g. only "html").
For modindex_exclude extension, per-port module excludes are also added.
With these changes, it's possible to generate docs for a particular port
devoid of any superfluous and unrelated content, including in indexes and
full-text search - with small caveat: when generating PDF docs after HTML,
or vice-versa cached internal doctree representation (build/*/doctrees/)
must be removed first.
Designed specifically to workaround issues we were facing with generating
multiple conditionalized output docsets from a single master doctree.
Extensions were factored out into a separate project, based on the fact
that many other Sphinx users experience similar or related problems:
