dev-manual, ref-manual, poky.ent: Fixed broken Release Note scheme

2013-05-31T07:19:21+00:00

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 variable

2013-05-31T07:19:20+00:00

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. (From yocto-docs rev: 0d0f756c142c506a66ebc6a1a33e9f124dafd333) Signed-off-by: Scott Rifenbark Signed-off-by: Richard Purdie

dev-manual: Updated wording about Git

2013-05-31T07:19:20+00:00

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.
