Only the latest release stays visible in the binary, checksum and
signature, and source tarball lists; older versions move into
collapsible `<details>` sections. Condense the repetitive per-version
checksum and signature sentences into a single list.
State explicitly in the README and download page that the
platform-specific prebuilt files are standalone executables, not
archives. Include the rename and executable-permission step for macOS
and Linux in the README.
Addresses #2956. Source archives are not described as executables.
Validation: the official `docs/build_website.py` completed and the
generated download page contains the new guidance. Used a Python venv
with the site's required rendering packages; restored the Windows
checkout's manual symlink in a temporary build copy only. jq itself was
not built or tested for this documentation-only change.

This commit refactors `splits/2` implementation using `foreach` syntax
and reduces intermediate arrays. This refactoring removes an unnecessary
private (and undocumented) filter `_nwise` and closes#3148.
The introduction says all the usage examples (e.g. of truncate_stream,
etc) in the section use [0,[1]] as input, but they actually use [1,[2]].
["a",["b"]] seems better than [1,[2]] as the string values won't be
confusable with the indexes in <path>.
We no longer use the `--root` option of `build_website.py` since we have
moved to jqlang.org (from jqlang.github.io/jq where the root was `/jq`).
We don't need the option on local development either since `http.server`
has the `-d` option to specify the directory to serve from.
This comment predates the addition of $ARGS in jq 1.6, so there was no
way to access named arguments with an invalid identifier. Rather than
forbid such names, update the manual to clarify.
I also changed the behavior of limit/2 with negative count to emit an error, like nth/2 does.
Also, I redefined nth/2 using skip/2 to minimize the impact of growth of builtin filters.
Fixes issue with confusion about features that has not been
released yet.
Move deveopment manual.yml to dev/manual.yml
Symlink manual.yml to v1.7/manual.yml
Refactor to share history header with links to other manual versions.
Change man.test and man page generation to use dev/manual.yml
Related to #3078#3127
* Fix typo in documentation for map_values
"map_value(f)" -> "map_values(f)"
* map_value => map_values also in the devolpment manual

This commit temporarily reverts the commit that allows #\ "tcl-style"
comments everywhere and documents them, for the 1.7.1 patch release
cca1f7d18f.
\r is removed from the list of characters not allowed in a comment to
preserve that bugfix.
The description of the Alternative operator `//` was hard for me to grasp in its wording.
I suggest dividing the looong sentence into two parts. Since it is actually an alternative formulation, the sentence can be divided into the first formulation, and the alternative formulation.
