Changing the folder that holds the YP Reference Manual to be "ref-manual". This will help with confustion over the manual's intended purpose.

The <a class="ulink" href="source-directory" target="_self">Source Directory</a>
|
||
includes a copy of BitBake for ease of use.
|
||
The copy usually matches the current stable BitBake release from the BitBake project.
|
||
BitBake, a metadata interpreter, reads the Yocto Project metadata and runs the tasks
|
||
defined by that data.
|
||
Failures are usually from the metadata and not from BitBake itself.
|
||
Consequently, most users do not need to worry about BitBake.
|
||
</p>
|
||
<p>
|
||
When you run the <code class="filename">bitbake</code> command, the wrapper script in
|
||
<code class="filename">scripts/</code> is executed to run the main BitBake executable,
|
||
which resides in the <code class="filename">bitbake/bin/</code> directory.
|
||
Sourcing the <a class="link" href="structure-core-script.html" title="5.1.10. oe-init-build-env">oe-init-build-env</a>
|
||
script places the <code class="filename">scripts</code> and <code class="filename">bitbake/bin</code>
|
||
directories (in that order) into the shell's <code class="filename">PATH</code> environment
|
||
variable.

|
||
inculded in the <code class="filename">bitbake/doc/manual</code> directory of the
