This is particularly important for Windows guests, because these
only have os='windows' and distro is not set.

virt-top is 'top' for virtual machines. Tiny program with many
powerful monitoring features, net stats, disk stats, logging, etc.

How about this [attached]?
You say in the documentation that matching happens in this order:
· os, distro, major, minor, arch
· os, distro, major, minor
· os, distro, major, arch
· os, distro, major
· os, distro
· os
but is that really true?
Also I don't think it's a good idea to include the whole default
configuration file in the man page. I think you should just tell them
where to look for it. If you agree I will prepare an updated patch.
Rich.

Looks fine.
You say in the documentation that matching happens in this order:
· os, distro, major, minor, arch
· os, distro, major, minor
· os, distro, major, arch
· os, distro, major
· os, distro
· os

I belived so when I wrote it :) If it isn't it's a bug.
Also I don't think it's a good idea to include the whole
default
configuration file in the man page. I think you should just tell them
where to look for it. If you agree I will prepare an updated patch.
You're probably right. A pointer to the default is probably sufficient.

I left this bit in, and removed the inline virt-v2v.conf (referring
instead to the external file which we bundle in %docdir).
Please ACK the attached complete patch which I propose to push.

This is particularly important for Windows guests, because these
only have os='windows' and distro is not set.
This commit also updates the virt-v2v.conf documentation.
