[OH-Dev] [issue894] oh-mainline should embed a copy of sphinx, so people can build docs w/o installing stuff

[Asheesh Laroia]

New submission from Asheesh Laroia <asheesh at asheesh.org>:

At http://openhatch.readthedocs.org/en/latest/contributor/documentation.html we 
tell people to run:

python tools/render_docs.py

But if they do that, they run into:

pkg_resources.DistributionNotFound: Sphinx>=1.1.2

To address this, we should embed a copy of Sphinx in vendor/ and make sure that 
tools/render_docs.py uses that.

vendor/README at the moment contains no hints on how to add something to it, but 
in broad strokes we follow the recommendations at 
http://kitsune.readthedocs.org/en/latest/vendor.html .
