2025-01-21doc: use .adoc extension for AsciiDoc filesbrian m. carlson
We presently use the ".txt" extension for our AsciiDoc files. While not wrong, most editors do not associate this extension with AsciiDoc, meaning that contributors don't get automatic editor functionality that could be useful, such as syntax highlighting and prose linting. It is much more common to use the ".adoc" extension for AsciiDoc files, since this helps editors automatically detect files and also allows various forges to provide rich (HTML-like) rendering. Let's do that here, renaming all of the files and updating the includes where relevant. Adjust the various build scripts and makefiles to use the new extension as well. Note that this should not result in any user-visible changes to the documentation. Signed-off-by: brian m. carlson <sandals@crustytoothpaste.net> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

2019-12-04doc: replace LKML link with lore.kernel.orgDenton Liu
Since we're now recommending lore.kernel.org, replace LKML link with lore.kernel.org. Although LKML has been around for a long time, nothing lasts forever (see Gmane). Since LKML uses opaque message identifiers, switching to lore.kernel.org should be a strict improvement since, even if lore.kernel.org goes down, the Message-ID will allow future readers to look up the referenced messages on any other archive.

2013-06-22Documentation: Update 'linux-2.6.git' -> 'linux.git'W. Trevor King
The 3.x tree has been out for a while now. The -2.6 repository name survived the initial release [1], but kernel.org now only lists 'linux.git' (for aegl as well as torvalds) [2].

We've removed the workaround for runtime penalty that did not exist in practice some time ago, but the technical paper that proposed that change still said "we probably should do so". Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>
