a03ca62042 Development.lyx: restore \origin tag
Kornel, it seems that something is incorrect in your system because every change you make to the docs files removes the \origin tag

867ecaad4f Update docs for \output_changes move
Since \output_changes is written again at the original position, we need to
fix those files that have been updated using the intermediate version.
The update was done by running development/tools/updatedocs.py <lyxexe> where
<lyxexe> was the path to an up to date LyX binary. All files that did contain
additional changes were reverted:

lib/doc/LFUNs.lyx
lib/doc/UserGuide.lyx
lib/doc/Shortcuts.lyx
lib/examples/de/beamer.lyx

The \SpecialChar changes are fine, these files have never been saved by LyX
after the update to 483.

0529b40cc9 Set default output format for manuals to PDF (pdflatex).
Pdflatex is the recommended export tool for the manuals.
Pdflatex brings the best results for hyperlinking.
Some features (e.g. rotated text) are not available in DVI or PS (dvips).

This does not affect export from command line or autotests
(where this setting is ignored and the format must aways be given explicitely).

1405f9efb1 Explain why we do not update the local layout
We do not update the local layout of our .lyx files because users
would then not be able to export to older formats. For example, if a
2.2.0 user exported a template to 2.1.x format and tried to open the
file in LyX 2.1.x, there would be an error because the file would
contain a local layout whose format is too new. The root reason for
this is that we do not convert layouts to older layout formats.

0ee4dff450 Document updating file format of LyX's files
The advantage of having the author of the file format change update
the files is that the author knows best what to expect in the diff
output.

385aed9721 Fix \origin lines
These were fixed manually. I tried to add an option to updatedocs.py to
open and save a file with LyX, but that did not work, since
lyx -x 'command-sequence buffer-write ; lyx-quit' does not write and does
not quit.

13e1c13d2a Document various ways to run the tex2lyx tests
Each way might be preferred by a different developer and the more
ways that can be described of running the tests, the higher the
chance is that developers will find a way that works well for them.

1a4d5b3ce9 Document why tests are enabled for all formats
Explain why the export tests are enabled for formats that are not
expected to work well with certain document classes, modules, or
packages. The reason is that if a .lyx file goes from compiling
successfully for one format (even if that format is not officially
supported for the combination of features used), if that document
suddenly fails to compile, there is a significant chance that a bug
was introduced in LyX. In other words, there is a high signal/noise
ratio. If it is determined that a test is failing because an
expected incompatibility is exposed, then the test can be inverted.

7c0232e874 Document updating tex2lyx tests when using CMake
Since Kornel's commit at e2d41970, it is now possible to update the
tex2lyx tests with CMake. Note that this is a case where a make
target in the build directory can affect the source directory, which
might not be advisable.

74b538f75d Add a "Development policies" section to dev manual
Writing these policies down makes it easier for newcommers to
understand guidelines and the intuition behind them.

The two policies this commit adds were responses by Georg and Richard
to two threads on the mailing list. The policies are titled
"When to set a fixed milestone" and
"Can we add rc entries in stable branch?".

7bdc34a987 Implement forced local layouts
These should be used if any new style needs to be introduced in the stable
2.1 series: If the ForceLocal flag of the style is set, it will always be
written to the document header, so that even older 2.1 versions can read
and correctly output the document.
