Preparation

The gfm_reader.py script points to a specific directory on bb-slave1 for loading the libcmark-gfm.so and libcmark-gfmextensions.so libraries. The path should be adjusted for your local installation.

Run build_cmark.sh to build the two libraries. It is then helpful to create a directory (say, build_cmark/lib) with two symlinks from the .so to the longer, version-specific libraries that the above shell script builds.

Preview PRs

To stage a preview of what a PR would result in, be sure to name your branches using the preview/$foo syntax, for instance preview/cleanup-dec-2021. This will auto-build and -stage your changes and make them available at manifoldcf-$foo.staged.apache.org, i.e. manifoldcf-cleanup-dec-2021.staged.apache.org
