2017-07-20CONTRIBUTING: formalize review rulesDaniel Vetter
There's a bunch of reasons why I think we should formalize and enforce our review rules for igt patches: - We have a lot of new engineers joining and review helps enormously with mentoring and learning. But right now only patches from contributors without commit rights are consistently subjected to review, which makes this imbalanced and removes senior contributors from the review pool. - We have a much bigger team and we need to make sure we're aligned on where igt as a tool and testsuite needs to head towards. Getting that alignment happens through reviewing each other's submission. Pushing a contentious patch and then dealing with a heated irc discussion is much less effective. - Finally igt becomes ever more important for our testing, making sure the code quality is high is important. Review helps with that. v2: Improve wording a bit (Imre).

CONTRIBUTING requests that people do this, but it's a lot easier if we just set it up by default for them. v2: Update CONTRIBUTING about this happening (suggested by Petri). Signed-off-by: Eric Anholt <eric@anholt.net> Acked-by: Petri Latvala <petri.latvala@intel.com> (v1)
2015-02-13doc: Consolidate naming conventions into docbookDaniel Vetter
Duplication just means it gets out of sync. Also update they keyword list in the Makefile, not everything was listed. And add a new "invalid" keyword. While at it update NEWS. Signed-off-by: Daniel Vetter <daniel.vetter@ffwll.ch>

i-g-t has become a fairly big project with lots of people involved, so lets document the basics and formalize the current process a bit. Also use this opportunity to announce Thomas Wood as igt maintainer once more. v2: Recommend --subject-prefix="PATCH i-g-t" as suggested by Damien. v3: Clean out contributing-related information from README.
