README.rst:
Remove note on installing the initcpio scripts as they now reside in a separate project.
Fix codeblock describing how to boot into the ISO from grub.
README.rst:
Add openssl as another dependency.
Mention the export of netboot artifacts in the project introduction.
Mention that archiso may be used on other operating systems as well.
README.rst:
Mention bootstrap images in the opening words of the project documentation.
Add awk, erofs-utils, findutils, gzip, libarchive, pacman and sed to dependencies.
* Don't nest code blocks inside quote blocks.
* Replace bash with sh, as there's nothing bash-specific in the examples.
* There is no syntax highlighting for grub, use sh.
* Use sentence case for headings.
* Use monospace for paths.
README.rst:
Add a "Releases" section that specifies who is creating releases and which PGP key ID is used to sign tags.

added.
Fixes#114
To date the iso version was used for iso volume information and iso file name.
In my custom builds I do use it a lot more:
* Inside the root fs: The system knows about its own version. I use this to:
-> report the version to a server (poor man's inventory)
-> let the system update itself
* On the iso fs: The files are served via rsync, running systems transfer
version file first to check for available update.
* A grub environment file on the iso fs: Booting the iso from grub allows
to create cow directory per version:
loopback loop archlinux.iso
load_env -f (loop)/arch/grubenv
linux (loop)/arch/boot/x86_64/vmlinuz-linux ... \
cow_directory=archlinux/${VERSION} ...
So let's just create these files.
README.profile.rst:
Add information on all necessary components of a profile:
* profiledef.sh
* packages.arch
* airootfs/
* efiboot/
* isolinux/
* syslinux/
Fix wording for pacman.conf documentation
README.rst:
Add a link to README.profile.rst.
Fixes#38
README.rst:
Add Contribute section to README to provide information about code of conduct, contributing guide and contact
information (mailing list and IRC).
Fixes#72
- mtools supports SOURCE_DATE_EPOCH.
- The image file is operated on directly instead of mounting the file system. This is a prerequisite to limit the commands that run with root privileges. Related to https://gitlab.archlinux.org/archlinux/archiso/-/issues/40 .
- Add a reminder comment to not get rid of the dosfstools dependency, since a mformat made FAT image can fail to boot on some systems.
**archiso/mkarchiso**:
Change all override option parameters (i.e. `-A`, `-C`, `-D`, `-L`, `-P` and `-g`) to not directly override the global
variable they are tied to, but instead using an `override_` prefixed variable.
Add `_set_overrides()` to use `override_` prefixed variables (if set) to override those without a prefix.
Remove `-B` (a profile directory) from the list of parameters. The profile directory is now provided as separate
non-option parameter.
Add a call to `_read_profile()`, `_set_overrides()` and `command_build_profile()` to the fallthrough option of the
switch-case checking `command_name` - a non-option parameter to mkarchiso. This effectively provides the possibility to
set the profile directory using a non-option parameter, while still maintaining compatibility to legacy named arguments
used in the configs' `build.sh` scripts.
Extend the warning in regards to legacy `build.sh` based commands to mkarchiso by providing an EOL with archiso v49.
Change the help output to reflect the changes and further elaborate on the legacy commands used by `build.sh` scripts.
Change help output to be ordered alphabetically.
Add help output for `-r` and `-g` options.
Call `_set_overrides()` for legacy commands that accept one or more of the overriden options (i.e. `command_init`,
`command_install`, `command_prepare` and `command_iso`).
Various style fixes.
**configs/{baseline,releng}/build.sh**:
Change call to mkarchiso to use the profile's directory as a named argument instead of an option-argument.
**README.rst**:
Fix documentation on how to call mkarchiso with a profile directory.
Fix wording and ordering of option arguments for run_archiso documentation.
Fixes#52
