Thank you for the steps.
The current project.config clearly reflects the documentation.
Excellent work!

I would like to know more about binutils-gdb style checker; the rest
of config is well
documented. Can you share some pointers and eventually style checker
sources/config?

I am not very familiar with git hooks administration.
I assume Mark has obtained the old config by running 'git config' or
some other way; but the new config
is applied when "hooks" directory is linked to
/sourceware/projects/src-home/git-hooks/hooks.
Is that correct? If yes, then why to keep the old config around? If
not, do these two coexist somehow?

And thank you for your response. It was really helpful!
