Thanks for doing that, but this patch can't apply.  Please note that the
cygwin-api, cygwin-ug-net, and faq subdirs are maintained as part of the
cygwin repo itself and are in XML, not in HTML.  Only the generic stuff
is maintained in the htdocs repo.

On second thought, using relative paths inside the Cygwin docs
(cygwin-api, cygwin-ug-net, and faq) is not such a bright idea, because
the docs should ideally work even if not on the cygwin.com website.
Sorry about that, but I didn't notice that your patch also changes
the Cygwin docs :}

Can you please split up the patch in two chunks?

The generic website patches should be based on the Website git repo at

  git://sourceware.org/git/cygwin-htdocs.git

the Cygwin docs patches on the Cygwin git repo at

  git://sourceware.org/git/newlib-cygwin.git.

The docs XML files are in the winsup/doc subdir.


Thanks,
Corinna
