Maybe i misunderstood. Did you talked about the docs itself or the link to huskyproject?

Date shows 2018 and that's the reason why i was looking for a more recent version. Could it become a yearly update event?

Yes, i do agree. I have to admit that i'm not on the latest version and that i'm to lazy to pull the git and do a compilation of the docs for the purpose of a check for the actual keywords when i tried to support the route configuration. I copied the text from the texi and edited it to ascii manually. Lazy as i am the idea was to have quickly accessable file for reference.

I do understand. Is it possible to use other mechanisms of github? I noticed

https://www.toolsqa.com/git/github-releases/

that github could handle releases too. But i don't know how that work. In the long term i'd like to see the project focused at one point for latest files.

Regards

Kai
