  Provide documentation of the kernel-doc documentation conventions oriented
  to kernel hackers.

  Since I figure that there will be more people reading this
  kernel-doc-nano-HOWTO.txt file who are kernel developers focused on the
  rest of the kernel, than there will be readers of this file who are
  documentation developers extracting that embedded kernel-doc
  documentation, I have taken the liberty of making the new section added
  here:

  How to format kernel-doc comments

  the first section of the kernel-doc-nano-HOWTO.txt file.

  This first section is intended to introduce, motivate and provide basic
  usage of the kernel-doc mechanism for kernel hackers developing other
  portions of the kernel.

  In kernel-doc syntax, be a little flexible: allow whitespace between
  a function parameter name and the colon that must follow it, such as:
  @pdev : PCI device to unplug

  (This allows lots of megaraid kernel-doc to work without tons of
  editing.)

  Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history,
  even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git
  archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about
  3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early
  git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good
  infrastructure for it.

  Let it rip!
