[Thomas De Schampheleire]

Hi Peter,

2011/7/19 Thomas De Schampheleire <patrickdepinguin+buildroot at gmail.com>:
> In analogy to build targets uclibc-update and busybox-update, add linux-update
> that copies the current configuration to the custom configuration file set in
> buildroot.
> This facilitates the work of developers adding support for a specific board
> to buildroot.
