An internal release procedure document was created separately from the documentation hosted in this repository. That
internal document became significantly more comprehensive and up to date than the unmaintained documentation in this
repository.
In order to avoid either the burden of maintaining two copies of the same information, or more likely the out of sync
state between the information in the two resulting from lack of such maintenance, a single document will be maintained
here in this repository.
The superior version of the information from the internal document is hereby migrated to the repository where it will be
maintained from here on.
Previously, the procedure for creating a new release of the project was included in the development documentation.
This information is distinct from the rest of the contents of that file in that it is not of any value or interest to
most contributors from the community since only project maintainers will ever create a release. This meant that it make
the document less readable and approachable without adding significant value in return.
The information is still essential to the project maintainers, so it must not be removed, but it can be moved to a
dedicated file under the existing `docs/internal/` folder that is specifically intended for storing such information.
Although the Arduino IDE's primary preferences interface provides all required configuration capabilities, advanced
users may wish to fine tune the behavior of the application or temporarily enable additional log output to use for
troubleshooting problems with the IDE.
The IDE provides such settings in a separate interface.
Previously, the existence and access procedure for these settings was undocumented.
Since this is an advanced capability, the documentation is not appropriate for inclusion with the standard user
documentation on arduino.cc. A file here in the Arduino IDE is used instead. This file will serve as a container for all
such user-targeted documentation.
The original location of the project repository was `bcmi-labs/arduino-editor` and some of the internal development
documentation for the project contains references to the repository.
This documentation was not updated at the time the repository was moved to the current home in `arduino/arduino-ide`.
