Add an --order switch to control section reordering. Default for --order is off. Change the default ordering to a slightly more sensible: M: Person acting as a maintainer R: Person acting as a patch reviewer L: Mailing list where patches should be sent S: Maintenance status W: URI for general information Q: URI for patchwork tracking B: URI for bug tracking/submission C: URI for chat P: URI or file for subsystem specific coding styles T: SCM tree type and location F: File and directory pattern X: File and directory exclusion pattern N: File glob K: Keyword - patch content regex Signed-off-by: Joe Perches <joe@perches.com> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>
Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
