So I have looked through my commits over the past year that *definitely* need documenting, and identified these standouts:
- https://git.yoctoproject.org/poky/commit/?id=63e53fb8b60d38315015844bd3357fa1649cd639 "build-sysroots: target or native sysroot population need to be selected explicitly" Easy fix to existing docs, will send asap. - https://git.yoctoproject.org/poky/commit/?id=2187e823ad66eaaee6a4ed7d748f2c68028a45e7 "selftest/sstatetests: add tests for 'bitbake -S printdiff'" This functionality needs to be documented; a review of whether there's something for bitbake-diffsigs (which is related) is also needed. I'll do this after the first item. - https://git.yoctoproject.org/poky/commit/?id=6f29e2319cf8f6124de4998e887efab90bc63ba4 "meta/conf/templates/default/conf-summary.txt: add a template summary" Needs to be documented everywhere where config templates or config template descriptions are mentioned. Also on todo list. - https://git.yoctoproject.org/poky/commit/?id=c390b2e615930b60db0d7f3e72d056e0c67ef5bc "oe-setup-build: add a tool for discovering config templates and setting up builds" This was added to master very recently and documenting it is pending an important fixup: https://patchwork.yoctoproject.org/project/oe-core/patch/[email protected]/ which I hope lands in master soon, but for some reason isn't in master-next.
