-
-You can edit docs/en/pluggable-transports.wml (and that is
-the right source file to edit, not the html). But go take a
-look at that file. You'll notice it has a bunch of tags like
-<version-torbrowserbundle>. If you're just bumping version
-numbers, you probably just want to change the definition of those tags.
-They're in include/versions.wmi

-(Every once in a while you may need to edit pluggable-transports.wml
-too -- generally when you change the file name so drastically that just
-changing the versions.wmi tags isn't enough.)

-Pushes to the master branch of the git repository will cause the
-website to get re-built and published. Pushing to the staging branch

-
-Alas, https://www.torproject.org/dist/ isn't in version control. You
-write to it by ssh'ing to dist-master.torproject.org and going to

-there. When you want it to go live, you run
-"static-update-component dist.torproject.org" on dist-master.

-etc. One day! :)

+# Building website locally
+
+To quickly get set up simply do the following

+    sudo apt-get install wml asciidoc

+    
+Note: Change the `TORGIT` in Makefile.local to point to your tor git repo.

+You should now be able to point your browser at the locally generated site...

+The build fails with "Invalid object name".
