Hi all,

some time ago I created a (now outdated) device overview[0] based on
YAML meta data. This approach could simplify maintaining an device
overview and device specific pages[1].

All commits adding new devices already include most relevant information
for creating the overview. However it would be convenient if developers
would format their commit messages in a generic format, therefore I'd
propose the following:

Every commit message for newly added devices must contain a number of
hardware information and steps for an initial installation.
The hardware information should contain at least the following
information, maybe more:

SoC, flash, ram, wifi, LEDs, buttons, USB, serial, vendor, model, device
tree ID, Ethernet ports
can we automate this somehow?
the device tree files already contain most of that information.

If you have a tool to extract such data or ideas on how to create such, that'd be great.

As an alternative I could also create a shell script that extracts data on a running machine, but that might miss some details.
