Subject: [PATCH v1 4/4] docs: stable-kernel-rules: remove code-labels tags
Date: Thu, 11 Apr 2024 07:25:06 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <82e9304d61a1ebebfabfae86b386d2547a8479ab.1712812895.git.linux@leemhuis.info> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <cover.1712812895.git.linux@leemhuis.info>
Remove the 'code-block:: none' labels and switch to the shorter '::' to
reduce noise.
CC: Jonathan Corbet <corbet@lwn.net>
Signed-off-by: Thorsten Leemhuis <linux@leemhuis.info>

Intentionally the last patch in the series to make it easy to skip in
case Jonathan or someone else points out there is a reason for these
tags.
