* Change most in-tree references from SVN to GIT.dbrownell2009-10-081-18/+18
| | | | | | | | | Also, talk about "mainline" not "trunk". The release.txt and release.sh files need more updates. git-svn-id: svn://svn.berlios.de/openocd/trunk@2825 b42882b7-edfa-0310-969c-e2dbd0fdcd60
* Change version labels to work better with GITdbrownell2009-10-071-3/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | - The guess-rev.sh script is now a tweaked version of "setlocalversion" as seen in Linux, U-Boot, and various other projects. When it finds source control support (git, hg, svn) it uses IDs from there. Else (specific to this project) it reports itself as "-snapshot", e.g. from gitweb. I verified this new "guess-rev.sh" script runs under Cygwin. - Also update the generic version strings to be like "0.3.0-dev" (during development) instead of the very long "0.3.0-in-development". These also show up in the PDF docs. For better tracking, we might eventually change these strings to include the version IDs too. - Change the startup banner version strings so they include the guess-rev output. Development and release versions with GIT will be like Open On-Chip Debugger 0.3.0-dev-00282-g7191a4f-dirty (2009-10-05-20:57) Open On-Chip Debugger 0.3.0 (2009-10-05-20:57) instead of the previous SVN-specific (even when using git-svn!) Open On-Chip Debugger 0.3.0-in-development (2009-10-05-01:39) svn:exported Open On-Chip Debugger 0.3.0 (2009-10-05-01:39) Release git-svn-id: svn://svn.berlios.de/openocd/trunk@2809 b42882b7-edfa-0310-969c-e2dbd0fdcd60

In doing so, some further revisions to the process were required: 1) The URL of the repository is embedded in the released code. - The packages need to be created from the tagged branch. - The URL then points to where to get the tagged code. 2) Improve the instructions for NEWS handling. - NEWS file must be updated for each release; describe that process. - The NEWS file should be archived an recreated for each release. 3) Add detail steps for the berliOS release process. 4) Minor cleanups to release process doxygen markup. git-svn-id: svn://svn.berlios.de/openocd/trunk@2475 b42882b7-edfa-0310-969c-e2dbd0fdcd60
