[U-Boot] [PATCH 00/11] buildman: Make the tool friendlier for first-time users

This makes a few minor improvements to buildman to make it work more easiler
for first-time users:

- Improve progress and warning messages when fetching toolchains
- Fix a bug where toolchain paths can be overwritten when fetching
- Note at the top of the help how to get started

Also this series removes MAKEALL. Since buildman has been around for 3 years
it may be time to do this. If not, we can leave it for now.


Simon Glass (11):
  buildman: Tidy up the README a little
  buildman: Automatically create a config file if needed
  buildman: Fix the 'help' test to use the correct path
  buildman: Allow the toolchain error to be suppressed
  buildman: Improve the toolchain progress/error output
  buildman: Fix a typo in TestSettingsHasPath()
  buildman: Drop the toolchain error when downloading toolchains
  buildman: Avoid overwriting existing toolchain entries
  buildman: Add a quick-start note
  Drop the MAKEALL tool
  Drop references to MAKEALL in the documentation
