[Buildroot] [git commit] config: make it possible to specify which config file to use for 'make defconfig'

From: Peter Korsgaard <jacmet@sunsite.dk>
Date: 2012-05-05 21:38:53
Subsystem: kernel build + files below scripts/ (unless maintained elsewhere), the rest · Maintainers: Nathan Chancellor, Nicolas Schier, Linus Torvalds

commit: http://git.buildroot.net/buildroot/commit/?id=33f454bbef77638a29ec24807e30740323e15b3e
branch: http://git.buildroot.net/buildroot/commit/?id=refs/heads/master

So that this works:

 % make defconfig BR2_DEFCONFIG=~/buildroot-defconfig

Right now we have to do:

 % cp ~/buildroot-defconfig configs/buildroot_defconfig
 % make buildroot_defconfig

That would dirty the buildroot tree and requires it to be writable.
