[llvm-dev] LLVM Documentation - How does it get updated?

Yes when I first committed the docs were fine upstream.  I think I even got
1 or 2 additional commits that I could see the changes of reflected on the
website.  At some point though, it just stopped updating (I don't know
which exact CL).  I can find a date range of when things stopped being
update if that would be helpful.

If I look at the PDB documentation now (which is rooted here
<http://llvm.org/docs/PDB/index.html>) it's all consistent with a certain
point in time (again, I'd have to find the exact CL), but nothing after
that point in time ever made it in.
