Did you manage to get it working? Sorry for the late reply, I was busy
all weekend. I find that a lot of D makefiles assume this directory
structure:
parent
parent/d-programming-language.org
parent/d-programming-language.org/web
parent/d-programming-language.org/dmd
parent/d-programming-language.org/druntime
parent/d-programming-language.org/phobos
You might want to try organizing your directory tree to look something
like the above; that may help you.
For me personally, I find that nesting dmd/druntime/phobos inside the
git checkout of d-programming-language.org a tad ugly, so I use this
instead:
parent/d-programming-language.org
parent/d-programming-language.org/web
parent/dmd
parent/druntime
parent/phobos
But then building docs for phobos will put it in parent/web, and you
have to manually merge it into where it's supposed to be. Or just cp -rp
both web subdirs into the same place where your HTTP server expects
them, and let the filesystem do the merging for you.
