Description

Add instructions on how to patch a release ZIP to edit the web site release content displayed on the web site. Effectively must say:

  1. Download the current Boost release ZIP, from the web server.
  2. Unzip, and replace the patched files.
  3. Rezip to the same name.
  4. Upload the new ZIP to the web server to the directory "/home/grafik/www.boost.org/archives/live".

Note, a few of these steps require access to the web server which is limited to a small number of users.

This is out of date now. HTML can be patched by adding the new version of the file to ​https://svn.boost.org/svn/boost/website/public_html/live/doc/fixes/ which is checked by the documentation script before the normal locations. Image and css files should be added to ​https://svn.boost.org/svn/boost/website/public_html/live/doc/libs/ which is served directly by the .htacess rules.

Even more obsolete now that people can edit in github do pull requests and merging them to master gets them in the web site.
