+## System-level config

+The system-level config, added in PR [#26118](https://github.com/ggml-org/llama.cpp/pull/26118), allows sharing the same set of options among multiple tools and examples. Unlike the sections above, it is not limited to the server.

+1. System-wide: `/etc/llama.cpp/config.ini` (or `%PROGRAMDATA%\llama.cpp\config.ini` on Windows)
+2. User-level: `$XDG_CONFIG_HOME/llama.cpp/config.ini`, `~/.config/llama.cpp/config.ini` by default (or `%APPDATA%\llama.cpp\config.ini` on Windows)

+
+Note:
+- Only the `[*]` and default sections are used; options written before any section header belong to "default. Named sections are ignored
+- Tool-specific options can be specified, but will be ignored (with a warning) if the example doesn't support it<br/>Example: if you specify `port = 1234`, only `llama-server` will use it, other examples will ignore it
+- `model` or `hf-repo` are not recommended to be configured system-level, because it may introduce conflicts<br/>Example: a `hf-repo` in the config file still takes effect when you pass `-m` on the command line, so you may load a different model than expected

+# Release process
+
+llama.cpp uses [semantic versioning](https://semver.org) (`MAJOR.MINOR.PATCH`).
+
+## Version bump guidelines
+
+| Change type | Version component |
+|---|---|
+| Breaking change to the public C API (`include/llama.h`)         | `MAJOR` |
+| Backward-compatible features, model support, or API addition    | `MINOR` |
+| Bug fix with no API change                                      | `PATCH` |
+
+The version is set in the three variables at the top of the root `CMakeLists.txt`:
+
+```cmake
+set(LLAMA_VERSION_MAJOR 0)
+set(LLAMA_VERSION_MINOR 1)
+set(LLAMA_VERSION_PATCH 0)
+```
+
+_A version bump should be included in the PR that introduces the change, or in a
+dedicated bump commit merged before the release is cut._
+
+_TODO: add PR labels (`semver: patch`, `semver: minor`, `semver: major`) to help
+identify which PRs require a version bump before cutting a release._
+
+## Making a release
+
+Releases are created by running the [make-release](.github/workflows/make-release.yml)
+which is a manual workflow.
+
+The workflow creates an annotated git tag (e.g. `v0.1.0`) and pushes it to the
+remote. No GitHub Release object is created, the tag is the release artifact.
+
+## Building a release
+
+By default, `LLAMA_BUILD_IS_DEV=ON` which appends a `-dev` suffix to `LLAMA_VERSION`,
+marking the build as a nightly/development build. Distributors building from a
+release tag must pass `-DLLAMA_BUILD_IS_DEV=OFF` to produce a clean version string
+(e.g. `0.1.0` instead of `0.1.0-dev`).
+
+## How releases reach users
+Currently releases are not published to github releases, only nightly/development
+builds are available there. The way users can access releases are using the following
+channels:
+
+- **llama-install.sh**  — downloads pre-built binaries built from the release tag.
+- **Package managers**  — consume the git tag directly.
+- **Build from source** — users clone the repo and check out the tag.

+## cmake-test
+
+This is just for manually testing/developing of a llama.cpp installation to
+enable troubleshooting issues and exploration. The idea is that this can be used
+after making changes to llama.cpp installation cmake configuration and then
+verify it locally.
+
+### Usage
+The following will configure, build, and install llama.cpp
+
+Configuring/build/install:
+```console
+./build-install.sh
+```
+The above command will create a directory named `install` in the current directory
+which will have the follwing files in its lib directory:
+```console
+(venv) $ ls install/lib/
+cmake                   libggml.so          libllama-common.so.0      libllama.so.0.1.0  llama.cpp
+libggml-base.so         libggml.so.0        libllama-common.so.0.1.0  libmtmd.so         pkgconfig
+libggml-base.so.0       libggml.so.0.19.0   libllama.so               libmtmd.so.0
+libggml-base.so.0.19.0  libllama-common.so  libllama.so.0             libmtmd.so.0.1.0
+```
+
+Build/run this project using the installation created above:
+```console
+(venv) $ ./build.sh
+-- Configuring done (0.0s)
+-- Generating done (0.0s)
+-- Build files have been written to: /home/danbev/work/ai/llama.cpp/examples/test-cmake/build
