Can the Angular docs on the website be made to deault to the latest stable release?

They seem to point to the latest git revision by default which is probably not what most people are using.

Definitely a possibility.
But we shouldn't underestimate the number of people who use the latest release / snapshot. Angular is pretty stable (I'd say) and the releases have been very frequent.

I've been caught in a situation when I'm reading a documentation of the latest pre-release, while still using an older, yet stable, version in production. Obviously, I couldn't follow the documentation word-by-word in this case.

The main thing that needs to be done is:

• create a build on Jenkins to push the latest release to a standard url such as code.angularjs.org/latest -> use the package.json distTag to figure out if the version is the latest stable
• change the configuration of the angularjs.org web-server to point docs.angularjs.org to point that url
• change the version dropdown so that master points to code.angularjs.org/snapshot
