Change history

If you don’t understand why a configuration exists, it’s useful to check its history.

The files in this repository were originally in the opendataservices-deploy repository. You can browse that repository from before the switch (August 5, 2019). That repository was itself re-organized at different times. You can browse before moving content from *.conf to *.conf.include (June 5, 2019).
