From 1d0603a990b4363ec7680bd99a249f43ad42cc21 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: =?UTF-8?q?Alex=20Benn=C3=A9e?= Date: Thu, 29 Sep 2022 12:42:17 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] docs/devel: clean-up qemu invocations in tcg-plugins MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit We currently have the final binaries in the root of the build dir so the build prefix is superfluous. Additionally add a shell prompt to be more in line with the rest of the code.
