* dev-manual, ref-manual, poky.ent: Fixed broken Release Note schemeScott Rifenbark2013-05-311-15/+16
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The URL naming convention for the YP Release Notes has changed. It now takes the following form: http://www.yoctoproject.org/download/yoctoproject-15-poky-1000 The above is an example for YP Release 1.5 and poky release 10.0.0. I have set up three new variables in the poky.ent file to somewhat automate the links in the docs to point to the location of a given set of release notes: 1. DISTRO_COMPRESSED - set to the DISTRO string with no period (e.g 15 for 1.5). 2. POKYVERSION_COMPRESSED - set to the poky version with no periods (e.g. 1000 for 10.0.0). 3. YOCTO_RELEASE_NOTES - set to the full-blown release note URL. I made two changes to existing links for the Release Notes. One was in the dev-manual and one was in the ref-manual.

* dev-manual, kernel-manual: Added links to THISDIR variableScott Rifenbark2013-05-311-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | There is now a glossary description for the THISDIR variable in ref-manual. I added some cross-reference links to the variable in key places of these two manuals.

* 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.
