4 Here are some quick notes, that may or may not evolve into something more
5 substantial over time. Development is preferably done via git merges.
7 * git trees don't contain pre-built config/Makefiles/etc. You'll need to
8 run the following (in order):
11 automake --add-missing --copy
14 You can also run "autoreconf -i" to perform these three stages.
16 * Regression tests can be run as follows (try --help for more details):
20 * Documentation is in SGML source in doc/ so don't edit *.8, *.5 directly.
22 Prior to a new release:
24 Update configure.ac with new version
25 commit git tree to appropriate branch (dev/master/topic)
26 perform a final tests/runtests on the tree
27 push tree up to git.kernel.org
28 prep tree for tarball (git archive)
29 sign tree with GPG and save signature
30 push archive up to kernel.org
