What's needed?
We need to be able to use deep links to a particular version alias in the docs.
Proposed solution
Change the
alias_type
in themike
section inmkdocs.yml
to usesymlink
instead ofredirect
.Additional context
GitHub pages stopped supporting symlinks at some point unless they were built using GitHub Actions. Back then this was not the default and we didn't use GHA, so we had to change the config to use
redirect
instead. This is not ideal because we can't have deep link to a particular version that is an alias.This setting was changed (or set explicitly to
redirect
) here:mike
