[PATCH] Documentation: update sparse.txt to list actual location

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



The information on where to get sparse is outdated. It is now maintained 
in a git tree and I was unable to find anywhere to download tarballs. This 
patch updates Documentation/sparse.txt to match current reality.
