Subject: [kvm-unit-tests PATCH 3/6] docs: move README to README.md and symlink
Date: Wed, 11 Jan 2017 16:28:38 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20170111162841.15569-4-alex.bennee@linaro.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20170111162841.15569-1-alex.bennee@linaro.org>

This allows a slightly nicer formatting of the text when displayed on
some repository hosts. We keep a symlink from README for the
old-school purists.
