The help_sections.rs file was added to the tarball only as a quick hack.
There is a cyclic dependency between docs and fish:
"fish_indent" via "crates/build-man-pages" depends on "doc_src/".
So every "touch doc_src/foo.rst && ninja -Cbuild sphinx-docs"
re-builds fish.
In future "fish_indent" should not depend on "crates/build-man-pages".
Until then, a following commit wants to break this cyclic dependency
in a different way: we won't embed man pages (matching historical
behavior), which means that CMake builds won't need to run
sphinx-build.
But sphinx-build is also used for extracting help sections.
Also, the fix for #12082 will use help sections elsewhere in the code.
Prepare to remove the dependency on doc_src by committing the help
sections (we already do elsewhere).
The new completions are like
help index#default-shell
Add a hack to use the "introduction" here.
Not sure if this is worth it but I guess we should be okay because
we at least have test for completions.
In future, we should find a better way to declare that "introduction"
is our landing page.
functions/help and completions/help duplicate a lot of information
from doc_src. Get this information from Sphinx.
Drop short section titles such as "help globbing" in favor of the
full HTML anchor:
help language#wildcards-globbing
I think the verbosity is no big deal because we have tab completion,
we're trading in conciseness for consistency and better searchability.
In future, we can add back shorter invocations like "help globbing"
(especially given that completion descriptions often already repeated
the anchor path), but it should be checked by CI.
Also
- Remove some unused Sphinx anchors
- Remove an obsoleted script.
- Test that completions are in sync with Sphinx sources.
(note that an alternative would be to check
in the generated help_sections.rs file, see
https://internals.rust-lang.org/t/how-fail-on-cargo-warning-warnings-from-build-rs/23590/5)
