RE: [Qemu-devel] making changes to the documentation

[Laurent Vivier]

Hi,

qemu-doc.html is generated from qemu-doc.texi.

So:

1- edit qemu-doc.texi
2- make qemu-doc.html
3- check qemu-doc.html
4- if not good goto 1
6- git commit -s qemu-doc.texi
7- git show HEAD
8- git format-patch -1
9- git send-email --to address@hidden 0001-*.patch

Regards,
Laurent
