+Package U-Boot
+==============
+
+U-Boot uses Flat Image Tree (FIT) as a standard file format for packaging
+images that it it reads and boots. Documentation about FIT is available at
+doc/uImage.FIT
+
+U-Boot also provides binman for cases not covered by FIT. Examples include
+initial execution (since FIT itself does not have an executable header) and
+dealing with device boundaries, such as the read-only/read-write separation in
+SPI flash.
