Overview
Documents how
variablesfrom each source repo’sdocs.jsonare merged on multi-repository deployments, matching behavior from mintlify/server#7483.The base source paragraph now notes that non-base sources also contribute variables the base doesn’t define, with a link to the new section. Variables across sources explains site-wide merge,
{{variableName}}usage across sources, base-source precedence on duplicate keys, and first-configured non-base source wins when the base omits the key (with a deployment warning).Reviewed by Cursor Bugbot for commit 68f1b5c. Bugbot is set up for automated code reviews on this repo. Configure here.
