We don’t care about the trim mode as nobody is reading the generated HTML, but we have to supply something, previously we enabled everything, which is now giving an error despite the documentation saying that trim mode can be “one or more of the following modifiers”:
% enables Ruby code processing for lines beginning with %
<> omit newline for lines starting with <% and ending in %>
> omit newline for lines ending in %>
- omit blank lines ending in -%>
It would seem that ‘<>’ is mutually exclusive with ‘-’ so now we pass ‘%-’ for trim mode.
This is when generating HTML for the release notes, manual, and, where we actually need this, list of contributions.
Long-term we should probably switch to template tags as we are effectively adding code to the (otherwise declarative) build graph, which means we don’t have any way to tell if the generated HTML is up-to-date or not (as that would require analyzing the embedded ruby code).
