[PATCH] treewide: fix uImage.FIT document paths

Daniel Golle daniel at makrotopia.org
Fri Feb 27 01:03:29 CET 2026


Commit 488445cefa1 ("doc: Move FIT into its own directory") moved the
documentation in doc/uImage.FIT to doc/usage/fit, subsequently all
documents and example sources have been converted to reStructuredText.

Fix (almost) all of the remaining occurrences of the old path and
filenames across the tree.

The exception is doc/uImage.FIT/command_syntax_extensions.txt which
apparently has been removed entirely, or at least I was unable to
locate where that document is now.
