[PULL] Documentation format standardization

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Here's a request to consider as an end-of-window pull.  Mauro has gone
through and fixed up a lot of top-level documentation files to make them
conform to the RST format, but without moving or renaming them in any
way.  This will help when we incorporate the ones we want to keep into the
Sphinx doctree, but the real purpose is to bring a bit of uniformity to
our documentation and let the top-level docs serve as examples for those
writing new ones.

It touches a lot of files, but it's all contained within Documentation/.
I've held it until now to minimize the chances of conflicts with other
trees changing the docs.

Thanks,

jon

  docs: kprobes.txt: Fix whitespacing (2017-07-14 13:58:14 -0600)

----------------------------------------------------------------
This series converts a number of top-level documents to the RST format
without incorporating them into the Sphinx tree.  The hope is to bring some
uniformity to kernel documentation and, perhaps more importantly, have our
existing docs serve as an example of the desired formatting for those that
will be added later.
