From c7ed1243a51352789b8130ebdd692b75b1e8cf07 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Luca Ceresoli Date: Mon, 28 Sep 2015 18:10:33 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] docs/manual: FOO_SITE must not have a trailing slash This has been the best practice since a long time, but it was not clearly stated in the manual. Now it is mandatory, so mention it explicitly.
