| * asciidoc markup fixesJunio C Hamano2008-08-07
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | I see quite a few pages on k.org site, e.g. http://www.kernel.org/pub/software/scm/git/docs/git-rerere.html (scroll down to find "After this test merge") are misformatted to lose teletype text '+' that is followed by a comma, and turns the following paragraph all typeset in teletype. This patch seems to fix the issue at the site (meaning, with the particular vintage of asciidoc and docbook toolchain), without breaking things with the version I have at my primary development machine, but wider testing is very much appreciated. After this patch, git grep '`+`,' -- Documentation should report noting. 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 .

* Clarify description of <repository> argument to pull/fetch for naming remotes.John J. Franey2008-05-31
| | | | | | | | | | Alter the description of <repository> in OPTIONS section to explicitly state that a 'remote name' is accepted. Rewrite REMOTES section to more directly identify the different kinds of remote-name permitted. Signed-off-by: John J. Franey <jjfraney@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.

* Docs: move git url and remotes text to separate sectionsJ. Bruce Fields2006-02-06
| | | | | | | | | The sections on git urls and remotes files in the git-fetch, git-pull, and git-push manpages seem long enough to be worth a manpage section of their own. Signed-off-by: J. Bruce Fields <bfields@citi.umich.edu> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>
* Docs: split up pull-fetch-param.txtJ. Bruce Fields2006-02-06
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The push and pull man pages include a bunch of shared text from pull-fetch-param.txt. This simplifies maintenance somewhat, but there's actually quite a bit of text that applies only to one or the other. So, separate out the push- and pull/fetch-specific text into pull-fetch-param.txt and git-push.txt, then include the largest chunk of common stuff (the description of protocols and url's) from urls.txt. That cuts some irrelevant stuff from the man pages without making us duplicate too much. Signed-off-by: J. Bruce Fields <bfields@citi.umich.edu> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>

* git-daemon support for user-relative paths.Andreas Ericsson2005-11-21
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | Dropped a fair amount of reundant code in favour of the library code in path.c Added option --strict-paths with documentation, with backwards compatibility for whitelist entries with symlinks. Everything that worked earlier still works insofar as I have remembered testing it. Signed-off-by: Andreas Ericsson <ae@op5.se> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>

* Documentation: "host:path/to/repo" is git native over ssh.Junio C Hamano2005-11-11
| | | | | | | | | | You could also spell it ssh://host:/path/to/repo (or git+ssh, ssh+git), but without method:// is shorter to type, so mention only that one in the short and sweet list. Noticed by Pasky. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>
* Documentation: pull/clone ref mapping clarification.Junio C Hamano2005-11-06
| | | | | | | | | Josef Weidendorfer points out that git-clone documentation does not mention the initial copying of remote branch heads into corresponding local branches. Also clarify the purpose of the ref mappings description in the "remotes" file and recommended workflow. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>
* Documentation: git-fetch/pull updates.Junio C Hamano2005-11-05
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | We do not accept multiple <refspecs> on one Pull:/Push: line right now (we could lift this tentative workaround for the broken refnames), but we have always accepted multiple such lines, so use that form in the examples and discussion. Also explicitly mention that Octopus is made only with an explicit command line request and never from Pull: lines. Add a couple of cross references. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>
* Added a few examples to git-pull man page.Jon Loeliger2005-11-04
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | Clarified and added notes for pull/push refspecs. Converted to back-ticks for literal text examples. [jc: Also fixed git-pull description that still talked about its calling git-resolve or git-octopus (we do not anymore; instead we just call git-merge). BTW, I am reasonably impressed by how well "git-am -3" applied this patch, which had some conflicts because I've updated the documentation somewhat.] Signed-off-by: Jon Loeliger <jdl@freescale.com> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>
* git-fetch/push/pull: documentation.Junio C Hamano2005-10-19
| | | | | | | | | The documentation was lazily sharing the argument description across these commands. Lazy may be a way of life, but that does not justify confusing others ;-). Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>

* [PATCH] Random documentation fixesJonas Fonseca2005-10-03
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The fixes focuses on improving the HTML output. Most noteworthy: - Fix the Makefile to also make various *.html files depend on included files. - Consistently use 'NOTE: ...' instead of '[ ... ]' for additional info. - Fix ending '::' for description lists in OPTION section etc. - Fix paragraphs in description lists ending up as preformated text. - Always use listingblocks (preformatted text wrapped in lines with -----) for examples that span empty lines, so they are put in only one HTML block. - Use '1.' instead of '(1)' for numbered lists. - Fix linking to other GIT docs. - git-rev-list.txt: put option descriptions in an OPTION section.
