Finit 5.0 changes the .conf syntax, which has been essentially unchanged since 1.x. The published docs track master, so when 5.x lands, 4.x users lose their reference. Publish the site under a per-major directory, /4.x/ for now, with the Material version selector to switch between them. The selector only needs mike's file layout -- a versions.json at the site root -- which the deploy job now generates from the version directories in the pages repo, so mike itself is not needed. The major comes from AC_INIT and the future 4.x maintenance branch is already in the workflow triggers, so once 5.0 is on master, doc fixes on the 4.x branch keep /4.x/ updated. A root index.html redirects to the newest version, and a 404.html rewrites pre-versioned deep links so old bookmarks and search hits land in the right place.

Finit is a fast, simple alternative to SysV init and systemd, designed for small and embedded Linux systems. It can also run on desktop and server systems, like finix.

Note
Finit can run on various Linux distributions, but the bundled install scripts are examples only. They have been tested on amd64 (x86_64) systems with standard configurations.
For embedded systems, see these Buildroot-based examples: myLinux, Infix, or br2-finit-demo.
