The section "Modifying Temporary Source Code" that was in the chapter
for "Common Tasks" was moved to the "Common Development Models" chapter.
After discussion with Darren Hart, modifying temporary source code
is a valid develop model. So, rather than isolate it in the common
tasks chapter it has been placed in the development model chapter,
which now has four types of development.
Changes were made to update the introductory text of all the concerned
areas of the manual.

Throughout the documentation set I have refered to the YP build
system generically in order to avoid use of the "Poky" term. Richard
has suggested that we refer to the actual thing that does the building.
So I have added BitBake to this particular sentence to refer to the
tool.

dev-manual/dev-manual-model.xml: The Bare Clone and Copy of the Bare
Clone figures are out of date for denzil. These needed to be
re-done so they use "linux-yocto-3.2.git" and "my-linux-yocto-3.0-work"
as the root names. This presents a Makefile issue when making the
denzil and pre-denzil versions of the manuals. Whenever you use a
different figure for a different release, you need to involve the
BRANCH variable in the Makefile. This is necessary because you are
using different figures in the generated tarballs. The set of figures
could be unique to the release. The outdated figure is
"kernel-overview-3.png" and will eventually be removed (later commit).
I created a new figure named "kernel-overview-3-denzil.png" and used
that in the dev-manual-model.xml file.
documentation/Makefile: I updated the Makefile to test for a
"denzil" release build and if so include the new file in the
generated tarball. This commit adds the new .PNG file as well.
Fixed the Makefile so that if you don't supply a BRANCH value, it
uses the latest figures (denzil).

There are many references to YP documentation throughout the
YP manual set. They used to have hard-coded links to the
current release (e.g. yoctoproject.org/docs/1.1 for Edison).
This created a situation where if you went to a document on
the website and clicked on a external reference to another
manual, you would redirect to the current manual on the website.
Really, you would want to go to the latest manual, which is
one that is under development. Changing the links to
"yoctoproject.org/docs/latest" makes the tip of master, which
is used for devloping the next release, always have references
to the manuals being developed and not back to the stable
released set of manuals.
This "latest" and "current" scheme for the links is not perfect.
What has to happen when the latest set of the manuals freezes
and becomes the next stable release, all the links in the docs
will need to be changed from "latest" in the URL to the new
release number. So for example, all the "latest" occurences
would need to be changed to "1.2". Then for the next cycle
as development begins again, the links need to be infused with
"latest" again.

Complete re-write of this section based on feedback from Dave Stewart.
Dave's comments centered around not being able to understand the overall
concepts of the Git repositories, the source areas on the host, etc.
I have added several illustrations and written around them to try and
better explain the kernel storage system in Git used by YP and how
that tranlates into host-resident code that the developer ultimately
uses and the Poky build system uses for the build.

much that was wrong in this overview. The overview attempts to generalize
all the situations for kernel modification. These include code changes,
configuration changes, and the addition of new recipes. It also includes
the situation where a developer wants to gather all the changes into a
separate layer for distribution and for when they want to push them up
the tree.
