David Brownell 885a2f5b96 Re-title Developer's Guide
The Doxygen output was previously titled "OpenOCD Reference Manual",
which was quite misleading ... the User's Guide is the reference
manual which folk should consult about how to use the software.

Just rename it to match how it's been discussed previously, and to
bring out its intended audience:  developers of this software.  As a
rule, Doxygen is only for folk who work with the code it documents.

David Brownell ae71005929 Doc/examples: clarify usage messages
Update/bugfix the "hello" example; emphasize using EBNF syntax,
matching the User's Guide.  Correct the Texinfo style guide to
say EBNF, not BNF.

This documentation update provides an introduction to the command

through the elements of a pointedly pedantic module: src/hello.c.

A summary of the API is provided in the OpenOCD Architecture section.

David Brownell ecd9c0d8bf Release docs: fix notes
We currently do something unusual:  version codes in config.in get
updated after the release, which means that "git describe" won't
match up to development version labels.  Comment that trouble spot.

We can fix this by switching away from the major/minor/micro type
release numbering, as various other projects have done.  The major
numbers basically don't tend to change, and doing a good job with
micro versions is so annoying that they rarely change either.

David Brownell 1c51f342d7 Tweak release docs
Contrast releases to git snapshot tarballs.  Mention that
releases have some quality-improvement focus, with special
non-"dev" version IDs.  Explain more about version IDs,
using "openocd -v" to see them, etc;

Make release milestone info be less specific about timing,
and presume we have both a merge window and an RC stage.

Rework the release process information to match reality a
bit more closely.  Reference the version.sh script (in one
place the wrong script was referenced).  Bugfix branches
get special treatment, while non-bugfix releases are more
or less what *defines* being the mainline branch.

Zachary T Welch e8dc384be9 Rewrite release script to use GIT.
Update documentation to reflect GIT methodology.  Rewrite release.sh
script to use appropriate process.  With this update, tools/release.sh
can be used for producing private release tags on local branches.
The documentation still needs work, but their use for v0.3.x should
help rectify the deficiences.

dbrownell 03c9e48f88 Change most in-tree references from SVN to GIT.
Also, talk about "mainline" not "trunk".

The release.txt and release.sh files need more updates.

dbrownell b1f7b35983 Change version labels to work better with GIT
- 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

zwelch df25617e54 The late birth of the NEWS file also caused me to revisit the release
process once again and reconsider it in some detail.  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.
