Author: gjb (doc committer) Date: Wed Nov 23 12:24:29 2011 New Revision: 227881 URL: http://svn.freebsd.org/changeset/base/227881 Log: MFC r227769, 227770, 227771: - Add a note to src/Makefile that explains that 'rm' runs twice because thesecond invocation only needs to operate on files with the immutable flag set. - Fix the note in r227769 to be less specific to the immutable flag. - Replace 'chflags' with 'file flags' in a comment, since 'chflags'is a command, not a flag itself.
