Subject: [Buildroot] [PATCH v2] docs/website: link LTS tooling documentation and staging branch
Date: Tue, 11 Aug 2026 14:26:42 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260811122642.142680-1-thomas.perale@mind.be> (raw)
Users asked where the notes are available and if the information are
publicly available.
Those changes clearly explain the location and convention of the staging
branches and also link to more documentation on how to read the
annotations.
Signed-off-by: Thomas Perale <thomas.perale@mind.be>
