-Bitbake
-=======
-
-BitBake is a generic task execution engine that allows shell and Python tasks to be run
-efficiently and in parallel while working within complex inter-task dependency constraints.
-One of BitBake's main users, OpenEmbedded, takes this core and builds embedded Linux software
-stacks using a task-oriented approach.
-
-For information about Bitbake, see the OpenEmbedded website:
-    https://www.openembedded.org/
-
-Bitbake plain documentation can be found under the doc directory or its integrated
-html version at the Yocto Project website:
-    https://docs.yoctoproject.org

-Contributing
-------------
-
-Please refer to
-https://www.openembedded.org/wiki/How_to_submit_a_patch_to_OpenEmbedded
-for guidelines on how to submit patches, just note that the latter documentation is intended
-for OpenEmbedded (and its core) not bitbake patches (bitbake-devel@lists.openembedded.org)
-but in general main guidelines apply. Once the commit(s) have been created, the way to send
-the patch is through git-send-email. For example, to send the last commit (HEAD) on current
-branch, type:
-
-    git send-email -M -1 --to bitbake-devel@lists.openembedded.org
-
-If you're sending a patch related to the BitBake manual, make sure you copy
-the Yocto Project documentation mailing list:
-
-    git send-email -M -1 --to bitbake-devel@lists.openembedded.org --cc docs@lists.yoctoproject.org
-
-Mailing list:

-Testing:
-
-Bitbake has a testsuite located in lib/bb/tests/ whichs aim to try and prevent regressions.
-You can run this with "bitbake-selftest". In particular the fetcher is well covered since
-it has so many corner cases. The datastore has many tests too. Testing with the testsuite is
-recommended before submitting patches, particularly to the fetcher and datastore. We also
-appreciate new test cases and may require them for more obscure issues.
