Archiving old files in `~/mglerner.com`

The Dreamhost web directory ~/mglerner.com accumulated ~20 years of files alongside the website. We move clearly-dead ones into ~/mglerner.com/_attic/ (a reversible mv - never a delete) so they can be reviewed before deletion.

The live catalog

Browsable list of what’s already in the attic: https://mglerner.com/_attic/ (on disk: ~/mglerner.com/_attic/index.html). Regenerate it after archiving more (see bottom).

Archived so far

NonNewtonian/ (old WordPress site), TextbookAnnotater/, wiki/

KEEP - active, do NOT archive

The live site itself: the *.html, blog/, site_libs/, img/, styles.css, MGLernerCV.pdf, search.json, sitemap.xml that ./deploy.sh writes.
fish.php - game rules, externally linked.
pogo-dives/ and pogo-dives-old/ - active (rsynced from ~/coding/MGLPoGo).
researchblog/ - a separate private WordPress lab notebook (“Lerner Labs Research”). Not part of this site; leave it.
Site infra: .htaccess, .well-known/, robots.txt, agents.txt, favicon.*, privacy.html, support.html.
Other domains (heatherlerner.com, allanstrees.org, lernerclan.net, …) are separate top-level directories in ~ - out of scope, can’t be touched from here.

How to archive more

# move (reversible)  -  quote names with spaces:
ssh mglerner.com 'cd ~/mglerner.com && mv DNAPoster.pdf "Harpy Eagle Movie .mp4" 125/ _attic/'

# regenerate the catalog (edit DESC in the script for nicer descriptions):
ssh mglerner.com 'python3 - ~/mglerner.com/_attic' < tools/make-attic-index.py

To undo a move: ssh mglerner.com 'mv ~/mglerner.com/_attic/NAME ~/mglerner.com/'.
