And as a last step (regardless of which way you're modifying the
defconfig) use git diff to check that you're changing things correclty,
i.e. not enabling more functionality than before (unless there's a good
reason for this).

Apart from that, I prefer that we copy the defconfig from a build, as
busybox sometimes likes to re-order the configuration options between
releases. I just happen to prefer to easily be able to compare my built
config with the supplied defconfig, with the minimum of changes.

Cheers,
Anders
