I recently started playing with the Core746I board from waveshare.
It is quite different from the stm32f746g-disco.
Seeveral IO are differently, the SDRAM is connected to bank 2, it
has a different xtal.
The stm32f746-ws looks like it could be for the waveshare board.
At least the PLL setup makes sense for the 8MHz xtal.
However there is no readme and I couldn't get details via commitlogs
either - maybe there is, but I failed to find.
I don't know the answer to your other question, but as far as the git logs,
recently (a year ago?) the boards directories were refactored. They used to
be in TOPDIR/configs, now they're in TOPDIR/boards and organized by arch,
mcu, board, and it seems that git doesn't know how to follow the
directories back in time across moves/renames. Maybe someone more
knowledgeable about git can enlighten us how to follow the logs to before
the move. I think you'll find more information there.
Try 'git log --follow'
--follow
Continue listing the history of a file beyond renames (works
only
for a single file).
It doesn't always work as expected, it depends on how good a job GIT did
of identifying the predecessor file.
