An ALAVETELI_VERSION constant has been added in config/environment.rb. When loading themes, `rails-post-deploy` now looks for a tag on the theme repository in the form 'use-with-alaveteli-0.6.5' that matches the ALAVETELI_VERSION being deployed - if it finds such a tag, the theme will be checked out from that tag, rather than from the HEAD of the theme repository. If no such tag is found, HEAD is used, as before [issue #573](https://github.com/mysociety/alaveteli/issues/573). diff --git a/doc/INSTALL.md b/doc/INSTALL.md index 62c5071ca..da72987af 100644 --- a/doc/INSTALL.md +++ b/doc/INSTALL.md @@ -39,7 +39,7 @@ If you are running Debian, add the following repositories to deb http://ftp.debian.org/debian/ testing main non-free contrib The repositories above allow us to install the packages -`wkthmltopdf-static` and `bundler` using `apt`; so if you're running +`wkhtmltopdf-static` and `bundler` using `apt`; so if you're running Ubuntu, you won't be able to use the above repositories, and you will need to comment out those two lines in `config/packages` before following the next step (and install bundler manually). @@ -326,12 +326,17 @@ which lives in `config/alert-tracks-debian.ugly`.
