* Document gitk --argscmd flag.Yann Dirson2008-08-29
| | | | | | | This was part of my original patch, but appears to have been lost. Signed-off-by: Yann Dirson <ydirson@altern.org> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
* Make the DESCRIPTION match <x>... items in the SYNOPSISAbhijit Menon-Sen2008-07-30
| | | | | | | | | When the SYNOPSIS says e.g. "<path>...", it is nice if the DESCRIPTION also mentions "<path>..." and says the specified "paths" (note plural) are used for $whatever. This fixes the obvious mismatches. Signed-off-by: Abhijit Menon-Sen <ams@toroid.org> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
* manpages: italicize git command names (which were in teletype font)Jonathan Nieder2008-07-05
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The names of git commands are not meant to be entered at the commandline; they are just names. So we render them in italics, as is usual for command names in manpages. Using doit () { perl -e 'for (<>) { s/\`(git-[^\`.]*)\`/'\''\1'\''/g; print }' } for i in git*.txt config.txt diff*.txt blame*.txt fetch*.txt i18n.txt \ merge*.txt pretty*.txt pull*.txt rev*.txt urls*.txt do doit <"$i" >"$i+" && mv "$i+" "$i" done git diff .

* Documentation formatting and cleanupJonathan Nieder2008-07-01
| | | | | | | | | | | | Following what appears to be the predominant style, format names of commands and commandlines both as `teletype text`. While we're at it, add articles ("a" and "the") in some places, italicize the name of the command in the manual page synopsis line, and add a comma or two where it seems appropriate.

* Docs: Use "-l::\n--long\n" format in OPTIONS sectionsStephan Beyer2008-06-08
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The OPTIONS section of a documentation file contains a list of the options a git command accepts. Currently there are several variants to describe the case that different options (almost) do the same in the OPTIONS section. Some are: -f, --foo:: -f|--foo:: -f | --foo:: But AsciiDoc has the special form: -f:: --foo:: This patch applies this form to the documentation of the whole git suite, and removes useless em-dash prevention, so \--foo becomes --foo.

* documentation: move git(7) to git(1)Christian Couder2008-06-06
| | | | | | | | As the "git" man page describes the "git" command at the end-user level, it seems better to move it to man section 1. Signed-off-by: Christian Couder <chriscool@tuxfamily.org> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

* Documentation: rename gitlink macro to linkgitDan McGee2008-01-06
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Between AsciiDoc 8.2.2 and 8.2.3, the following change was made to the stock Asciidoc configuration: @@ -149,7 +153,10 @@ # Inline macros. # Backslash prefix required for escape processing. # (?s) re flag for line spanning. -(?su)[\\]?(?P<name>\w(\w|-)*?):(?P<target>\S*?)(\[(?P<attrlist>.*?)\])= + +# Explicit so they can be nested. +(?su)[\\]?(?P<name>(http|https|ftp|file|mailto|callto|image|link)):(?P<target>\S*?)(\[(?P<attrlist>.*?)\])= + # Anchor: [[[id]]]. Bibliographic anchor. (?su)[\\]?\[\[\[(?P<attrlist>[\w][\w-]*?)\]\]\]=anchor3 # Anchor: [[id,xreflabel]] This default regex now matches explicit values, and unfortunately in this case gitlink was being matched by just 'link', causing the wrong inline macro template to be applied. By renaming the macro, we can avoid being matched by the wrong regex. Signed-off-by: Dan McGee <dpmcgee@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

* War on whitespaceJunio C Hamano2007-06-07
| | | | | | | | | This uses "git-apply --whitespace=strip" to fix whitespace errors that have crept in to our source files over time. There are a few files that need to have trailing whitespaces (most notably, test vectors). The results still passes the test, and build result in Documentation/ area is unchanged.

* Refer users to git-rev-parse for revision specification syntax.Shawn O. Pearce2007-01-17
| | | | | | | | | | The revision specification syntax (sometimes referred to as SHA1-expressions) is accepted almost everywhere in Git by almost every tool. Unfortunately it is only documented in git-rev-parse.txt, and most users don't know to look there. Signed-off-by: Shawn O. Pearce <spearce@spearce.org> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>

| | | | | | | | | Add a short description and document a few selected options additionally to the different "entities" in the standard calling convention. Advertise other git repository browsers.

* Fix up docs where "--" isn't displayed correctly.sean2006-05-05
| | | | | | | | | | A bare "--" doesn't show up in man or html pages correctly as two individual dashes unless backslashed as \-- in the asciidoc source. Note, no backslash is needed inside a literal block. Signed-off-by: Sean Estabrooks <seanlkml@sympatico.ca> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>
* Add examples for git-log documentation and others.Linus Torvalds2005-10-30
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | I don't think people really follow the links or think very abstractly at all in the first place. So I was thinking more of some explicit examples. I actually think every command should have an example in the man-page, and hey, here's a patch to start things off. Of course, I'm not exactly "Mr Documentation", and I don't know that this is the prettiest way to do this, but I checked that the resulting html and man-page seems at least reasonable. And hey, if the examples look like each other, that's just because I'm also not "Mr Imagination". Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>
