One of it is via the commandline:

- checkout the site

svn co https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/incubator/river/site/trunk site

- checkout the buildtools

svn co https://svn.apache.org/repos/infra/websites/cms cms

- create results dir

mkdir www

Edit the pages in site/content with your favorite editor

To build a page from your local filesystem:

cms/build/build_file.pl --source-base site -source content/index.mdtext --target-base www

To build the site from your local filesystem:

cms/build/build_site.pl --source-base site --target-base www
