Generating files

This project makes extensive use of Rake. The default task generates all the diff files, even for new version of Rails, but can take a very long time to run:

rake

But, each generated file can be independently [re]generated:

rake index.html
rake 404.html
rake diff/v3.0.0/v4.0.0.beta1/index.html
rake diff/v3.0.0/v4.0.0.beta1/full/index.html

Thanks to Rake, these files will only be [re]generated if needed; and essentially, what determines if the file needs to be [re]generated is: the file is missing, or its template file has been updated.

So, to regenerate index.html, for example, you can either:

rm index.html
rake index.html

Or:

touch template/index.haml # or a more meaningful change to the file
rake index.html
