The branch main has been updated by debdrup: URL: https://cgit.FreeBSD.org/doc/commit/?id=5476df45eb064fc3bdd7172ce9f38822eb143307 commit 5476df45eb064fc3bdd7172ce9f38822eb143307 Author: Daniel Ebdrup Jensen <debdrup@FreeBSD.org> AuthorDate: 2021-02-10 04:32:24 +0000 Commit: Daniel Ebdrup Jensen <debdrup@FreeBSD.org> CommitDate: 2021-02-11 04:18:46 +0000 13.0R/relnotes: Add entries for changes that happened in bhyve. While here, implement a template for cgit links called 'commit' for lack of a better term.
