Remove explicit swift-docc-plugin dependency#354
Merged
Conversation
Nowadays (as weird as it is) projects are not expected to have the dependency declared explicitly. It must be added ad-hoc or by the swift package index. Otherwise all kinds of tools break, including swiftlang/docs. It would be ideal that all projects can just add the plugin, but that's not the state of the world nowadays. Meanwhile I did workarounds in adopter projects to unbreak swiftlang/docs building with those added, more details here swiftlang/swift-java#845 cc @heckj

Hmm maybe this is why I can't get the docs to show up on swiftpackageindex.com... Thanks!! |
