Worg now always publishing with latest Org version

[Jason Dunsmore]

Hello Worg contributors,

I've changed the Worg publishing process so that it always updates the
version of Org used to publish Worg before publishing.  Until we have a
way to gracefully handle publishing/export errors, this should help
prevent and troubleshoot the publishing errors that frequently cause
Worg to break.

* Preventing publishing errors

Locally export any document you edit as HTML (C-c C-e H) prior to
committing it to Worg and ensure the export process doesn't fail.  This
will be more reliable if you're running the latest version of Org.

You may also want to check the formatting in a browser before committing
your change (C-c C-e b).

* Troubleshooting publishing errors

If you notice Worg isn't updating, visit
http://orgmode.org/worg/publishing.txt and look for the export error
near the bottom to find the file where publishing stopped.  Locally
update to the latest version of Org, open that file, and try reproducing
the export error (C-c C-e H).  If it's not obvious where the problem is,
look at the most recent changes to the file in question:

cd Worg
git log -p org-quotes.org

Try reverting some of those changes and then re-test exporting (C-c C-e
H).

Matt,

Is there an existing page on Worg where I should put this info?

Regards,
Jason

Thanks, Jason, for writing this up! For now, I put the instructions in
worg-maintenance.org. However, I plan to reorganize the various worg-*
pages soon.

Best,
Matt
