Subject: [gentoo-portage-dev] [PATCH 0/2] man page updates to promote keepdir usage
Date: Fri, 12 Jan 2018 17:57:45
Message-Id: 20180112175726.9718-1-mjo@gentoo.org
1 The main barrier to proper keepdir usage is that nobody knows what
2 it's for. These two commits update the ebuild (5) man page with an
3 explanation, namely that empty directories are undefined by the PMS.

5 Michael Orlitzky (2):
6 man/ebuild.5: document that dodir is for nonempty directories.
7 man/ebuild.5: document the rationale for using keepdir over dodir.
