The language reference has a menu to change the current version:

Some users on Discord requested the ability to also change version in the std docs, mainly due to #355 (which was apparently fixed but it needs to be looked at again)

If this change needs to be done in the Zig repo feel free to move the issue there.

I am not sure this is really possible. The zig std command serves documentation for the standard library of the current Zig executable, which makes it agnostic toward the Zig version (it just uses the current one). I assume the standard library documentation on ziglang.org is generated from that.

There is a way to change the version of the standard library documentation though:

• Go to the language reference for the version (e.g. 0.15.2, master).
• Click the "Zig standard library" link under the "Zig standard library" heading.

(You can also just append /std to the URL of the language reference)
