* dev-manual: improve descriptions of 'bitbake -S printdiff'Alexander Kanavin2024-03-281-4/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | Try to particularly emphasize that it can be used to find out why something rebuilds when it shouldn't.

* manuals: suppress excess use of "following" wordMichael Opdenacker2024-03-131-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | To simplify the style, replace "Following is" and "Following are" by "here is" and "here are", sounding more natural. In some cases, also go further by simplifying "Here are/is xxx" by "xxx are/is" when the "are" or "is" are not two far at the end of the sentence. In some cases too, completely remove the sentence, when it's redundant with the preceding title.

* manuals: document VSCode extensionEnguerrand de Ribaucourt2024-01-271-0/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The VSCode extension is now officially maintained and published by the Yocto Project so it should be referenced in the manuals to help users discover it. I located the most relevant places to reference the extension by looking at how the old Eclipse plugin was documented in the 2.6 manuals as well as the current Toaster references.

* dev-manual: remove unsupported :term: markup inside markupYoann Congal2023-09-091-2/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | ":term:`Initramfs`" in bold text appears verbatim (no link is created). The term link is present elsewhere in the text so remove the extra markup.

* manuals: simplify references to classesMichael Opdenacker2023-01-061-8/+7
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Now that .bbclass is removed from class section titles. We can now have, for example, :ref:`ref-classes-insane` instead of :ref:`insane <ref-classes-insane>`. Then, when necessary, rework paragraphs so that they have lines of even length, not exceeding 80 characters.

* manuals: split dev-manual/common-tasks.rstMichael Opdenacker2022-12-011-0/+940
A 500 KB source file is always harder to manage, and can have section title conflicts. So, the "Common Tasks" document is gone and all its constituents are moved up one level. You now have 40 chapters in the Development Tasks Manual.
