docs-rst: add documents to development-process

2016-10-24T10:12:35+00:00

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

Documentation/applying-patches.txt: fix a bad external link

2016-10-24T10:12:35+00:00

We can't use :ref: for external links. Signed-off-by: Mauro Carvalho Chehab

docs: Clean up bare :: lines

2016-09-21T00:46:36+00:00

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: add cross-references to other documents

2016-09-21T00:41:04+00:00

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.

2016-09-21T00:34:57+00:00
