currently the automake website only hosts one manual version -- the latest.
when working with older code bases, especially when trying to update them
to newer versions, it can be helpful to have the older manual available to
quickly refer to. can we do this for automake ? i'm thinking of just the
major series (1.11, 1.12, etc...), not the patchlevel (1.16.1, 1.16.2).
this is pretty common with other projects that have major releases and are
heavily developer oriented. for example:
* autoconf
https://www.gnu.org/savannah-checkouts/gnu/autoconf/manual/autoconf-<VER>/
* gcc
https://gcc.gnu.org/onlinedocs/
* binutils
https://sourceware.org/binutils/docs-<VER>/
the autoconf style should be pretty easy to replicate since it's using the
same infrastructure as automake:
