What I do is to run menuconfig against the most recent .config, and search |
| 8 |
(visually) for items marked [NEW] and read their Help pages. That does mean |
| 9 |
lots of following of ---> links to subsidiary pages, but at least it takes |
| 10 |
less time than looking at everything all over again. And it does avoid |
| 11 |
using oldconfig, which I've heard rumours about. |
