When one does: make SPHINXDIRS="foo" htmldocs All patterns would be relative to Documentation/foo, which causes the include/exclude patterns like: include_patterns = [ ... f'foo/*.{ext}', ] to break. This is not what it is expected. Address it by adding a logic to dynamically adjust the pattern when SPHINXDIRS is used. That allows adding parsers for other file types. It should be noticed that include_patterns was added on Sphinx 5.1: https://www.sphinx-doc.org/en/master/usage/configuration.html#confval-include_patterns So, a backward-compatible code is needed when we start using it for real.
