A *brand* of searx is a fork which might have its own design and some special
functions which might bee reasonable in a special context.
In this sense, the fork might have its own documentation but not its own issue
tracker. The *upstream* of a brand is always https://github.com/asciimoo from
where the brand-fork pulls the master branch regularly. A fork which has its
own issue tracker is a spin-off and out of the scope of the searx project
itself. The conclusion is:
- hard code ISSUE_URL (in the Makefile)
- always refer to DOCS_URL
- links in the about page refer to the *upstream* (searx project)
except DOCS_URL
- "fork me on github" ribbons refer to the *upstream*

We have some variables in the build environment which are also needed in the
templating process. Theses variables are relavant if one creates a fork with
its own branding. We treat these variables under the term 'brands'.
