Subject: [RFC] Documentation tree sub-directories reorg.
Date: Tue, 04 Nov 2008 14:50:36 -0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <4910D1BC.9060100@xenotime.net> (raw)

Hi,

I would like to use a few more sub-directories in the Documentation/ tree to
try to help clean it up some.  E.g., move some drivers/block/ doc files to
Documentation/blockdev/ and move some serial/tty/chardev doc files to
Documentation/serial/  (or serial-tty/ or chardev/ or <suggestions>).


A [git] diff for blockdev/ and serial/ looks like:

 Documentation/00-INDEX                      |   38 +-------------------------
