Hi Gentoo-users, I noticed one thing so I want to ask if it is a coincidence or intentional behaviour. It concerns "installation" of kernel sources (more exactly gentoo-sources).
When I installed Gentoo on new computer I followed oficial guide. So I emerged gentoo-sources, went through "make menuconfig", configured everything I needed, compiled kernel, installed, etc. Now the funny thing: When I update sources (like now, 3.7.9) and go through "make menuconfig" again (this time in new tree), there is nearly nothing to do, except a few new features. It looks like they are "pre-configured" exactly for me! :-) So my question is: how is this possible? Is maybe ".config" file from the old sources-tree copied to new sources-tree? Or is the actual configuration of running kernel somehow detected and ".config" file generated? Just curious, because I think it was not always this way.
