2025-05-06man/, CREDITS: Move in-source contribution records to CREDITSAlejandro Colomar4-11/+2
This information is better placed in the git logs, not in the source code itself. For people interested in the old history of pages, before we used git, they will probably look at old versions of these pages, like for example man-pages-1.70, or the 'prehistory' branch, and there they'll find these notes. Keep the names and emails of contributors in a new CREDITS file.

2024-05-08elf.5, ld.so.8: Undeprecate DT_RPATH; explain DT_RPATH vs DT_RUNPATHJoachim Wuttke1-1/+0
In elf.5 and ld.so.8, remove deprecation of DT_RPATH In elf.5, amend the description of DT_RUNPATH and DT_RPATH. Rationale: There is no credible path towards removal of DT_RPATH. Lots of software depend on DT_RPATH as is. It is used e.g. for testing and in binary installers.

2022-09-05src.mk, All pages: Move man* to man/Alejandro Colomar11-0/+2363
The root of the repository is becoming a bit overpopulated and unorganized, due to the recent addition of more mandirs, and more informative and configuration files too. Let's create a specific mandir <man/> that contains the mandirs <man[1-8]*>. Signed-off-by: Alejandro Colomar <alx.manpages@gmail.com>
