Cuts the v25.5 documentation version and promotes it to the version served at the site root, matching the v25.5.0 release (2026-10-13).

Summary

  • Snapshots docs/ into docs_versioned_docs/version-v25.5/ and docs-graphql/ into graphql_versioned_docs/version-v25.5/, via docs:version:docs and docs:version:graphql.
  • Sets lastVersion: 'v25.5' on both content plugins, with v25.5 at path '' and v25.4 moved to v25.4.
  • Updates the version examples in README.md.

The snapshot carries the user-facing docs for v25.5.0 that landed on main ahead of the cut:

Also in here: unreleased markers for anonymous

main still labeled the anonymous option as unreleased in three places (admin/security/anonymous-access.md, cli/superflags.md, cli/zero.md). @shiva-istari's commit from shiva/anonymous-option-released removes them. It never got its own PR, so I cherry-picked it ahead of the cut (eff4e34, authorship preserved) to keep the markers out of the v25.5 snapshot.

Follow-up

The listBackups / lsbackup features from #755 shipped in dgraph #9693, which is in every tag from v25.3.4 on. The v25.4 and v25.3 snapshots don't have that content, and it should be backported in a separate PR.

URL movement

Path Before After
/<page> v25.4 v25.5
/v25.4/<page> 404 v25.4
/graphql/<page> v25.4 v25.5
/graphql/v25.4/<page> 404 v25.4

Testing

npm run build passes. With onBrokenLinks: 'throw', a clean build is the link check across all six versions. Verified against the generated output in build/:

  • / and /graphql/ both render v25.5 (latest), with v25.4, v25.3, v25.2, v25.1, and v24.1 in the dropdown.
  • /cli/lsbackup includes the new --since-date flags; /v25.4/cli/lsbackup does not (see Follow-up).
  • The v25.5 anonymous-access page has no unreleased banner.
  • Older-version paths under /v25.4/, /v25.3/, /v24.1/, /graphql/v25.4/, and /graphql/v25.3/ resolve.

The anonymous option of the --security superflag shipped in Dgraph v25.5.0.
Snapshot docs/ and docs-graphql/ as v25.5 and promote it to the
version served at the site root for both content plugins, matching
the dgraph v25.5.0 release. v25.4 moves to /v25.4 and /graphql/v25.4.
