The old link to source code cross reference does not work now. Though the link has updated by commit 1d12554f0abbc7d17dce8d1b7b25f4e27555e6d7 ("Documentation: HOWTO: update code cross reference link"), there are few obsolete links yet. This commit update them.

2015-10-11kernel-docs.txt: update kernelnewbies referenceRichard Sailer
The #kernelnewbies irc channel is no longer hosted on irc.openprojects.net but on irc.oftc.net. Removed pointer to different regional servers since oftc already uses geo-IP load balancing. The "description" quoted from the website no longer exists, therefore removed the reference, quotes and carets. The paragraph also contains a pointer to the kernelnewbies.org website. Therefore changing the title to: "Kernel Newbies IRC Channel and Website." Signed-off-by: Richard Sailer <richard@weltraumpflege.org> Signed-off-by: Jonathan Corbet <corbet@lwn.net>
2011-09-27doc: fix broken referencesPaul Bolle
There are numerous broken references to Documentation files (in other Documentation files, in comments, etc.). These broken references are caused by typo's in the references, and by renames or removals of the Documentation files. Some broken references are simply odd. Fix these broken references, sometimes by dropping the irrelevant text they were part of. Signed-off-by: Paul Bolle <pebolle@tiscali.nl> Signed-off-by: Jiri Kosina <jkosina@suse.cz>

2010-08-04Documentation: update broken web addresses.Justin P. Mattock
Below you will find an updated version from the original series bunching all patches into one big patch updating broken web addresses that are located in Documentation/* Some of the addresses date as far far back as 1995 etc... so searching became a bit difficult, the best way to deal with these is to use web.archive.org to locate these addresses that are outdated. Now there are also some addresses pointing to .spec files some are located, but some(after searching on the companies site)where still no where to be found. In this case I just changed the address to the company site this way the users can contact the company and they can locate them for the users. Signed-off-by: Justin P.

2007-10-20typo fixesMatt LaPlante
Most of these fixes were already submitted for old kernel versions, and were approved, but for some reason they never made it into the releases. Because this is a consolidation of a couple old missed patches, it touches both Kconfigs and documentation texts.

2005-04-16Linux-2.6.12-rc2Linus Torvalds
Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history, even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about 3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good infrastructure for it. Let it rip!
