* git-primer: Update how to rebase a vender branch mergeWarner Losh2023-03-311-36/+63
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Update the vendor branch merge section to include the missing commands and hopefully to make it more clear. Switch to using bogus branch names that will stand out on purpose. This rework 'play' tested on the lua branch merge, which needed dozens of rebasing... Also, indent by one space the conflict section so as to not confuse automated tools (or me) that it's a real conflict that needs to be resolved. Sponsored by: Netflix

* git primer: Fix two errorsWarner Losh2023-01-291-8/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | Recommend pushing HEAD:main in the vendor branch docs, since that's always going to be right. Stop recommending people set push.default to 'freebsd'. It's an enumerated value that's not a branch name. Most likely correct value here is 'upstream'. However, there's enough people with asymetrical setups that I'm just removing the setup rather than describe all the special cases. Sponsored by: Netflix
* git primer: Fix push commandWarner Losh2023-01-281-1/+1

* license: Create a license guideline documentWarner Losh2022-11-051-0/+327
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Create a license guideline document for the project. This pulls together all the disparate docs into one location. This does not (yet) remove the content from the other locations. Also, introduce a new policy to allow SPDX identifiers to completely specify a license and specify the mechanics of how to construe the license for such files. This policy should be viewed as nearly complete in spirit, but not yet finalized in wording. Ongoing legal review will result in at least editorial changes. Note 1: This changes the wording of our default license slightly in a way that the SPDX legal team has deemed to be not legally different as a practical matter in jurisdictions where Linux is relevant. Note 2: This changes the default preferred license to detached, though still allows the non-detached version. Note 3: Text of the licenses is not (yet) in the src tree. That will happend on the road to final approval. I have one IP lawyer setup to review this, and invitations out to a few more that specialize in the unique considerations that "open source IP" and "open source projects" present (turns out they are hard to find and often quite busy). Together, all these people should provide world-wide coverage and may result in tweaks to account for variation in IP legal regulatory regimes. Once this review is complete, I'll remove the 'other' copies of this information and pending final core approval it will become the policy of the project. Getting it committed will elevate its visibility and help me to get legal reviews more easily. Prior core teams have approved this in spirit. The current core team will have final approval once I've worked out the final rounds of feedback. Approved in theory: core.10 and core.11 Discussed with: emaste, brooks, jhb, gnn Sponsored by: Netflix Differential Revision: https://reviews.freebsd.org/D29543
