kernel-dev/common.rst: remove SRC_URI:append from examples

2022-09-24T16:44:55+00:00

It's better to use SRC_URI += to append patches etc. If anything is added via :append, that can only be removed with :remove which makes the changes rather permanent compared to light weight += amendments.

kernel-dev: working with kernel using devtool does not require building and installing eSDK

2022-08-12T22:11:28+00:00

In fact, all the same tasks can be done directly from a Yocto build. Let's just drop the steps to produce and install the eSDK - if someone wants it, the SDK manual covers everything.

manuals: replace hyphens with em dashes

2022-06-27T13:55:08+00:00

Fix some hyphens being improperly used as em dashes. See https://www.grammarly.com/blog/hyphens-and-dashes/ Using em dashes may also allow Sphinx to hyphenate and break lines in the best way. Note that the first character after an em dash not supposed to be capitalized, unless a specific rule applies, typically when what follows is a proper noun. Fix a few misuses of parentheses in following text. (From yocto-docs rev: 5918f019f63f6e820b1168f4cc001faa1d1cdc6f) Signed-off-by: Michael Opdenacker Signed-off-by: Richard Purdie

manuals: improve the width of diagrams

2022-05-10T11:52:35+00:00

Better for EPUB output in particular - Make some diagrams wider when necessary - Remove ":align: center" when we have ":width: 100%" - Update the standards.md files to mention this (From yocto-docs rev: 848ba7bd8984cc3f4bf6b818259865011cde0476) Signed-off-by: Michael Opdenacker Signed-off-by: Richard Purdie

manuals: fix name capitalization issues

2022-05-10T11:52:34+00:00

- Using "BitBake" instead of "Bitbake" or "bitbake", aligning with the title of the "BitBake User Manual". - Using "OpenEmbedded" instead of "Openembedded" - Using "Python" instead of "python" (From yocto-docs rev: 0b893e2a15aefedd7100445fc9d7eeed07b6afc6) Signed-off-by: Michael Opdenacker Signed-off-by: Richard Purdie

manuals: replace "rootfs" by "root filesystem"

2022-01-07T11:12:06+00:00

Almost everyone understands "rootfs", but "root filesystem" is real English. (From yocto-docs rev: 3d610f15e5b6be3435e9e81e4498a676671e5b39) Signed-off-by: Michael Opdenacker Signed-off-by: Richard Purdie

make the documentation a bit more inclusive

2021-12-13T23:31:34+00:00

Except the name of variables which can't be changed only in the documentation for obvious reasons and workflow or developement explanations around the use of the "master" branch which cannot be replaced with "development" branch instead, most of the non-inclusive words that appear in https://inclusivenaming.org/word-lists/tier-1/ should have been replaced in this patch.

manuals: add hyperlinks to files in meta-skeleton

2021-12-13T23:31:34+00:00

This makes the manuals easier to use. Note the care to keep the paths visible, so that people reading a printed version still know where to find the files. (From yocto-docs rev: 501917f65530f14ea686b69d6e96407c3f970a28) Signed-off-by: Michael Opdenacker Signed-off-by: Richard Purdie

manuals: delete unmaintained history sections

2021-09-18T12:03:45+00:00

This deletes the history sections in each sub-manual, which didn't add any value, given that they didn't list the changes from one Yocto Project version to the next.
