* Docs: tell maintainers to put [GIT PULL] in their subject linesMatthew Wilcox2018-04-161-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | It seems that Linus looks for [GIT PULL] in subject lines to ensure that pull requests don't get buried in the noise during merge windows. Update the docs to reflect that. [jc: From an impromptu post from willy, thus no SOB] Signed-off-by: Jonathan Corbet <corbet@lwn.net>

* docs-rst: add documents to development-processMauro Carvalho Chehab2016-10-241-0/+840
