I manually tweaked our site source code (https://github.com/webpack/webpack.js.org/tree/feat/v3-docs) to generate a build that runs in a subfolder for webpack 3 docs, which I deployed to https://webpack.js.org/v3/ using
gh-pages
branch.There is a daily cronjob that updates
gh-pages
branch with latest changes from master, it also deletes current files from that branch, which deletes previousv3
build.This PR adds a flag to
gh-pages
dependency to save previous files, I am afraid that it will also increment size of the branch, but I think it won't affect website performance.This is a temporary solution until we develop a solution to support versioned docs, as lodash.com, hopefully this will be done in less than a month.
