* dev-manual: Updated the "How to Submit a Change" section.Scott Rifenbark2017-01-201-128/+234
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | Fixes [YOCTO #10905] I updated the section with suggested improvements for completeness. The section has been broken into more subsections and provides the reader with more direction on mailing lists based on components changed.

* documentation: Fixed references using the DISTRO_NAME variableScott Rifenbark2016-04-061-9/+9
| | | | | | | | | | | | With the introduction of a DISTRO_NAME_NO_CAP variable, the occurrences of the DISTRO_NAME variable had to be checked to see if they really should be using the "NO_CAP" variable instead. Output and actual branch names are case-sensitive.

* yocto-project-qs and others: Rewrite of the QSScott Rifenbark2015-07-281-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This was a complete re-write of the YP Quick Start in an attempt to streamline it, remove unecessary detail, and make it flow better with the examples. In doing so, many manuals were affected due to section headings being renamed, information being moved, etc. Here is a list of the changes by manual: Makefile - Removed two figures from TARFILE list for the yocto-project-qs. Added building-an-image.png to the ref-manual TARFILE list. Added using-a-pre-build-image.png to the adt-manual TARFILE list. Repositioned 'eclipse' in the adt-manual TARFILE list. adt-manual: Fixed a cross-reference so that it goes to the new 'Building Images' section that is within the YP QS. Added new section 'Example Using Pre-Build Binaries and QEMU' to hold the information that was formerly in YP QS. dev-manual: Removed a cross-reference into the YP QS that promised how to configure the most efficent build. Changed a cross-reference into the YP QS from 'The Packages' to 'The Build System Packages'. Changed a cross-reference into the YP QS from 'Building an Image' to 'Building Images'. Changed a text reference from the YP QS to the adt-manual. Moved the bit about getting YP files by using the YP website from the YP QS to the dev-manual. Changed a cross-reference into the YP QS from 'Using Pre-Built Binaries and QEMU' to 'Example Using Pre-built Binaries and QEMU', which was moved to the adt-manual. ref-manual: Changed a cross-reference into the YP QS from 'What You Need and How You Get It' to 'Setting Up to Use the Yocto Project'. Moved the note about if your system has oss4-dev in the packages area in the YP QS to the appropriate area in the ref-manual. Moved the introduction information regarding building an image along with the figure from YP QS to the ref-manual's section on building images. toaster-manual: Changed a cross-reference into the YP QS from 'What You Need and How You Get It' to 'Setting Up to Use the Yocto Project'. yocto-project-qs: Complete rewrite that changed many section headings and removed much detail, which was placed in other manuals.

* dev-manual: Updated branch descriptions for better manual maintenanceScott Rifenbark2015-04-241-4/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The "Repositories, Tags, and Branches" section had some wording that described how branches are maintained in the poky repo that made it hard to maintain in the doc from release to release. I had a list of past releases by name and as such would have to update it every release to make it reflect the last set. Well... this is not the best way to do this and proved out as it slipped through the cracks for the YP 1.8 release. Consequently, I recast the text so it is "release proof".

Updated the "Build Directory" term with a note indicating that by default, TMPDIR is inside the Build Directory and thus cannot be on NFS. However, the user is able to by-pass that per setting TMPDIR separately outside of the Build Directory.

I have modified the "Yocto Project source Repositories" section to de-emphasize the tarball installation method for poky and meta-intel. We cannot remove these obviously because the download page of the website gives the use access to tarballs. Also, the Index of Releases basically does the same thing. So, we can't ignore the fact that they are there. So, I added a note basically saying we recommend the Git method for creation of poky and meta-intel on the development system.

All other changes were necessary to integrate the new functionality into areas where running the setup script are discussed. Before this feature, there was a single setup script (oe-init-build-env). Consequently, wordings and such were designed exclusively for this single method. With the introduction of a second possible method to initialize the build environment, tweaks to many sections were needed. Beside the wording tweaks, appropriate cross-referencing was also needed. All these changes cover the integration of the new feature.

* dev-manual: Updated wording about GitScott Rifenbark2013-05-311-54/+54
| | | | | | | | | | | | | I removed the statement saying that checking out a Git repository is a backup of the repo. Technically, that is not true. It would be more of a clone operation. The statement was superfluous anyway so I decided to remove it altogether.

* dev-manual: Added cross-reference to section for finding maintainersScott Rifenbark2013-04-171-3/+10
| | | | | | | | | | | | | The "Tracking Bugs" section mentions how to enter a bug using Bugzilla. I added a new step just before the step that says to submit the bug that tells the user to be sure to copy the correct people. The link goes to the section that describes how to figure out who is responsible for code.

* dev-manual: Added methods to determine who a Maintainer is.Scott Rifenbark2013-04-171-0/+40
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Provided three ways to dig out the information on who might be contaced about a change or patch to an area of code: 1. See the "maintenance.inc" file. 2. Examine BSP README files or the MAINTAINERS file (for BSP) 3. Use the 'git shortlog -- <filename> command to see who has committed the bulk of the changes for a particular file.
