2019-01-15dev-manual: Remove True option to getVar callsAndré Draszik
getVar() has been defaulting to expanding by default for a long time (2016), thus remove the True option from getVar() examples with a regex search and replace. Search & replace made using the following command: sed -e 's|\(d\.getVar \?\)( \?\([^,()]*\), \?True)|\1(\2)|g' \ -i $(git grep -E 'getVar ?\( ?([^,()]*), ?True\)' \ | cut -d':' -f1 \ | sort -u) Note that there are are several other examples of getVar() usage which already don't explicitly add the True option, this patch just align some stray remainders.

2019-01-11brief-yoctoprojectqs, dev-manual: Update tag checkout examplesScott Rifenbark
Turns out I had some hard-coded stuff in these examples. Furthermore, I did not have good enough detail in the brief-yoctoprojectqs manual. I added more detail on how to get that sato example going. Signed-off-by: Scott Rifenbark <srifenbark@gmail.com>

Fixes [YOCTO #13112] Fixes [YOCTO #13115] * FILESPATH: Added a detailed example of how to use the variable to set machine-specific configurations.

The behavior applies to many images. Signed-off-by: Scott Rifenbark <srifenbark@gmail.com>
2018-12-26mega-manual: Updates to support BitBake User ManualScott Rifenbark
Fixes [YOCTO #12399] Fixes made to have the BitBake User Manual included in the build of the mega-manual. I placed this manual at the end of the mega-manual. Following changes made: * Makefile - Modified to include two PNG files. All PNG files in a given manual are listed in the area that makes the mega-manual so that the tarfile is complete. * mega-manual.xml - Updated the front wording to tell the user that the BitBake User Manual is included in the Mega-Manual. Also, added a last section to actually include the bitbake-title.png file and the *.xml files. Note that I could not add the title figure from the same figures folder of the local "bitbake" folder. Would not include in the build. So, I pulled the file from the figures folder of the mega-manual, which is what I do for all the other book titles used in the mega-manual. * mega-manual.sed - Modified to clean out the old stuff that had been carried along for older books not supported for the release. Modified to include link processing for the newly included BitBake User Manual. * New Figures - Moved copies of the "bb_multiconfig_files.png" and "bitbake-title.png" figures into the figures folder of the mega-manual.

2018-12-26ref-manual, overview-manual: Fixed BitBake User Manual linksScott Rifenbark
Some occurrences of links to the BitBake User Manual were using a target (i.e. &YOCTO_DOCS_BB_URL;#bitbake-user-manual). Using this form causes the mega-manual.sed file to not process the link correctly for the mega-manual. These are subtle errors and have probably existed for some time. I removed the target ID to fix the problem. Signed-off-by: Scott Rifenbark <srifenbark@gmail.com>
