Mailing List Archive: [PATCH 00/16] devmanual: update the docs for post git-migration #558642

Hi,

The following patch series attempt to update devmanual to replace the instances
of CVS with their git equivalents. I tried to keep the changes small in favor
of updating the docs over multiple iterations of patch series. The intention is
to get the bare bone changes in so that the quiz questions can be answered.

Currently not included in the series are:
- References to CVS in sections about herds since they will have to be
rewritten per GLEP 67 soon anyway.
See: https://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=572144
- I am not sure about what to do with the subsection
Ebuild Functions/Miscellaneous Files/ChangeLog. The ChangeLog files
still exist in the rsync tree, however they are of little importance
in terms of development.

Hi Gokturk

Just for your information (in case you have certain expectations), the
devmanual is not managed as part of the gentoo documentation project (which
is more for end-user documentation, and has shifted focus completely to the
Gentoo Wiki).

See https://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/Project:Devmanual for information about the
devmanual.
