Remove symlinked directories and excess files in /sites/blog
Why is this change being made?
This change removes all symlinks under site/blog
that were added to create a separate middle instance for just the blog.
This MR also removes the following files:
- Removes
sites/blog/config.rb
- Removes
extensions/partial_build_blog.rb
because it's no longer needed
These files are being removed as part of the monorepo refactor preliminary separation and decoupling tasks. It will also prepare the repository for phase 1 of the www-gitlab-com monorepo refactor epic.
Removing these files also disable the possibility of running just the blog while developing locally.
