Permalinks

Because the site is dynamic, it does not build HTML files for each different version of an article. Instead it generates a "permalink" for every version of the article. It does this based on the article's versions frontmatter.

For example, an article that is available in currently supported versions will have permalink URLs like the following:

  • /en/free-pro-team@latest/github/getting-started-with-github/set-up-git
  • /en/enterprise-server@2.22/github/getting-started-with-github/set-up-git
  • /en/enterprise-server@2.21/github/getting-started-with-github/set-up-git
  • /en/enterprise-server@2.20/github/getting-started-with-github/set-up-git
  • /en/enterprise-server@2.19/github/getting-started-with-github/set-up-git

An article that is not available in Enterprise will have just one permalink:

  • /en/free-pro-team@latest/github/getting-started-with-github/set-up-git
