Important

This is the fourth and final PR in the stacked preprocessor series for preprocessor#8, splitting the original implementation in preprocessor#9 into smaller reviewable slices. This PR builds on the earlier workspace (#10), editorial (#11), and local runtime (#12) slices and adds the public-facing documentation for the full command surface and workflow.

Description

This PR documents the local multi-repo build system introduced in the earlier stacked PRs.

It describes the local workspace model, the site and editorial command surfaces, the dirty workflow path, parity-oriented usage, and the distinction between local serving and built-output preview.

Changes

  • document local workspace setup and bootstrap
  • document the site check, build, serve, and preview commands
  • document the explicit editorial command surface
  • document dirty workflow behavior and parity-oriented usage
  • document the local multi-repo model using stable public-facing terminology

Validation

This documentation slice builds cleanly on top of the earlier stacked slices:

  • cargo build

The documented command surface and workflows describe the same final implementation preserved by this stacked series from preprocessor#9.

Add the local workspace model for the multi-repo build system.

This adds workspace config and profile support, workspace init,
refresh, and doctor commands, generated helper tasks, and the
local site build path against sibling repos and theme inputs.

The site commands support normal local usage, parity checks,
standard clone and git worktree checkouts, and explicit dirty
builds from the active content repo.
Add explicit editorial commands and keep them separate from the
site command surface.

This adds targeted editorial selection and lets proposal validation
run independently from the normal site build and check commands.
Add local serving and preview paths for the multi-repo workflow.

serve runs the live Zola dev loop and syncs tracked working-tree
edits into the build-time repo during the session. preview serves
already-built output without rebuilding.
Document the local multi-repo workflow and command surface.

Describe local workspace setup, dirty workflow, site commands,
editorial commands, parity usage, and the separate serve and
preview paths using stable public-facing terminology.
