Subject: [ptxdist] [PATCH v2 1/4] u-boot: Bump default version and tweak help texts
Date: Tue,  5 Feb 2019 19:56:07 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20190205185610.15346-2-ada@thorsis.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20190205185610.15346-1-ada@thorsis.com>

The default U-Boot version to be built was from 2007, maybe it's time to
bump that?

The help text better explains the make config target option now, and how
U-Boot is written in the help texts was unified.

Signed-off-by: Alexander Dahl <ada@thorsis.com>

Notes:
    v1 -> v2:
