Since gio was renamed to gio2 under my feet I decided to check out a  
fresh copy of the complete repository before I commited my fixes for  
gio to make it load once again:

svn co [Ruby-GNOME 2 download | SourceForge.net](https://ruby-gnome2.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/ruby-gnome2)  
ruby-gnome2

I, however, get the following after a while:

A ruby-gnome2/doc/trunk/en/text/Gnome%3A%3AConfig  
svn: In directory ‘ruby-gnome2/doc/trunk/en/text’  
svn: Can’t open file  
‘ruby-gnome2/doc/trunk/en/text/.svn/tmp/text-base/Install+Guide+for+windows.svn-base’:  
No such file or directory

I simply retried the procedure after rm ruby-gnome2, but hit the same  
problem. What should I do. Iâ€™m doing this on Mac OS X.

Uhm. I can checkout from the URL.

What about this?

% svn co

ruby-gnome2

## Thanks,

Yes, that works, but I wanted to be able to update the documentation.  
Don’t I need to clone the documentation as well to do that?

Instead of solving this, could you please describe the whole workflow  
for using mkrd and dealing with documentation in general? How much  
can be generated automatically?

I want to avoid having to spend too much time writing the documentation.

You need to clone the following repository on GitHub:  
[GitHub - ruby-gnome/doc: Documentation](http://github.com/ruby-gnome2/doc)

% ruby -I PATH\_TO\_RUBY\_GNOME2\_LIBRARIES update-rd.rb  
% git diff # confirm generated result.  
% editor en/text/… # edit Ruby/GIO2 related files.  
% browser [http://ruby-gnome2.sourceforge.jp/](http://ruby-gnome2.sourceforge.jp/) # upload your Ruby/GIO2  
related files.  
% git checkout .

I’ve updated all en/text/ files now.  
You can start from ‘editor en/text/…’.

Does the description satisfy you?

## Thanks,
