docs-rst: add documents to development-process

2016-10-24T10:12:35Z

Add several documents to the development-process ReST book. As we don't want renames, use symlinks instead, keeping those documents on their original place. Acked-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman Signed-off-by: Mauro Carvalho Chehab

docs: Clean up bare :: lines

2016-09-21T00:46:36Z

Mauro's patch set introduced some bare :: lines; these can be represented by a double colon at the end of the preceding text line. The result looks a little less weird and is less verbose. Signed-off-by: Jonathan Corbet

Documentation/HOWTO: adjust external link references

2016-09-21T00:41:36Z

- A few link references were missing http:// - Several sites are now redirecting to https protocol. On such cases, just use the https URL. NOTE: all URLs were checked and they're pointing to the right places. Signed-off-by: Mauro Carvalho Chehab Signed-off-by: Jonathan Corbet

Documentation/HOWTO: improve some markups to make it visually better

2016-09-21T00:41:27Z

Do a series of minor improvements at the ReST output format: - Instead of using the quote blocks (::) for quotes, use italics. That looks nicer on epub (and html) output, as no scroll bar will be added. Also, it will adjust line breaks on the text automatically. - Add a missing reference to SubmittingPatches.rst and use **foo** instead of _foo_. - use bold for "The Perfect Patch" by removing a newline.

Documentation/HOWTO: update information about generating documentation

Documentation/HOWTO: add cross-references to other documents

2016-09-21T00:41:04Z

Add cross references for the documents mentioned at HOWTO and are under the Documentation/ directory, using the ReST notation. It should be noticed that HOWTO also mentions the /README file. We opted to not touch it, for now, as making it build on Sphinx would require it to be moved to a Documentation/foo directory.

Documentation/HOWTO: convert to ReST notation

2016-09-21T00:34:16Z

This document is almost compliant with ReST notation, but some small adjustments are needed to make it parse properly by Sphinx (mostly, add blank lines where needed). Signed-off-by: Mauro Carvalho Chehab Signed-off-by: Jonathan Corbet

2016-02-10T20:19:48Z
