GYB documentation

Where can I find the documentation for GYB? Literally every file in the standard library goes through it but it doesn’t seem like anyone has actually written down its syntax anywhere

Most of it is all python syntax, if not all of it. Lines starting with % are an indicator of a gyb statement. Python relies on indentation to scope, so gyb uses a keyword end to indicate the end of an if statement, a for loop, etc. Other than that, it's pretty much python from what I've used.

The ./swift/utils/gyb --help command will output a summary.
