* Clarify doc for git-config --unset-all.Yann Dirson2007-03-14
| | | | | | | | | Previous formulation could make it appear as removing all lines matching a regexp (at least, I was looking for such a flag, and confused this flag for what I was looking for). Signed-off-by: Yann Dirson <ydirson@altern.org> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>

| * user-manual: install user manual stylesheet with other web documentsJ. Bruce Fields2007-03-10
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Install the stylesheet needed for the user manual. This should solve the problem of, e.g., http://www.kernel.org/pub/software/scm/git/docs/user-manual.html lacking a lot of formatting. Signed-off-by: "J. Bruce Fields" <bfields@citi.umich.edu>
| * user-manual: fix rendering of history diagramsJ. Bruce Fields2007-03-10
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Asciidoc appears to interpret a backslash at the end of a line as escaping the end-of-line character, which screws up the display of history diagrams like o--o--o \ o--... The obvious fix (replacing "\" by "\\") doesn't work. The only workaround I've found is to include all such diagrams in a LiteralBlock. Asciidoc claims that should be equivalent to a literal paragraph, so I don't understand why the difference--perhaps it's an asciidoc bug.

| * user-manual: fix missing colon in git-show exampleJ. Bruce Fields2007-03-10
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | There should be a colon in this git-show example. Cc: Ramsay Jones <ramsay@ramsay1.demon.co.uk> Signed-off-by: "J. Bruce Fields" <bfields@citi.umich.edu>
| * user-manual: fix inconsistent use of pull and mergeJ. Bruce Fields2007-03-10
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | I used "git pull ." instead of "git merge" here without any explanation. Stick instead to "git merge" for now (the equivalent pull syntax is still covered in a later chapter). Cc: Ramsay Jones <ramsay@ramsay1.demon.co.uk> Signed-off-by: "J. Bruce Fields" <bfields@citi.umich.edu>
| * user-manual: fix inconsistent exampleJ. Bruce Fields2007-03-10
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The configuration file fragment here is inconsistent with the text above. Thanks to Ramsay Jones for the correction. Cc: Ramsay Jones <ramsay@ramsay1.demon.co.uk> Signed-off-by: "J. Bruce Fields" <bfields@citi.umich.edu>
| * glossary: fix overoptimistic automatic linking of defined termsJ. Bruce Fields2007-03-10
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The script sort_glossary.pl turns each use of "term" into a link to the definition of "term". To avoid mangling links like gitlink:git-term[1] it doesn't replace any occurence of "term" preceded by "link:git-". This fails for gitlink:git-symbolic-ref[1] when substituting for "ref". So instead just refuse to replace anything preceded by a "-". That could result in missing some opportunities, but that's a less annoying error. Actually I find the automatic substitution a little distracting; some day maybe we should just run it once and commit the result, so it can be hand-tuned. Signed-off-by: "J. Bruce Fields" <bfields@citi.umich.edu>

* Fix diff-options references in git-diff and git-format-patchBrian Gernhardt2007-03-05
| | | | | | | | | | | | Most of the git-diff-* documentation used [<common diff options>] instead of [--diff-options], so make that change in git-diff and git-format-patch. In addition, git-format-patch didn't include the meanings of the diff options. Signed-off-by: Brian Gernhardt <benji@silverinsanity.com> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>

* Begin SubmittingPatches with a check listJohannes Schindelin2007-03-05
| | | | | | | | | It seems that some people prefer a short list to a long text. But even for the latter group, a quick reminder list is useful. So, add a check list to Documentation/SubmittingPatches of what to do to get your patch accepted.

* user-manual: how to replace commits older than most recentJ. Bruce Fields2007-03-04
| | | | | | | | | "Modifying" an old commit by checking it out, --amend'ing it, then rebasing on top of it, is a slightly cumbersome technique, but I've found it useful frequently enough to make it seem worth documenting.

* user-manual: insert earlier of mention content-addressable architectureJ. Bruce Fields2007-03-04
| | | | | | | | The content-addressable design is too important not to be worth at least a brief mention a little earlier on. Signed-off-by: "J. Bruce Fields" <bfields@citi.umich.edu> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>
* user-manual: ensure generated manual references stylesheetJ. Bruce Fields2007-03-04
| | | | | | | | | | | | | The generated user manual is rather hard to read thanks to the lack of the css that's supposed to be included from docbook-xsl.css. I'm totally ignorant of the toolchain; grubbing through xmlto and related scripts, the easiest way I could find to ensure that the generated html links to the stylesheet is by calling xsltproc directly. Maybe there's some better way. Signed-off-by: "J. Bruce Fields" <bfields@citi.umich.edu> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>
* user-manual: reset to ORIG_HEAD not HEAD to undo mergeJ. Bruce Fields2007-03-04
| | | | | | | | | | | | As Linus pointed out recently on the mailing list, git reset --hard HEAD^ doesn't undo a merge in the case where the merge did a fast-forward. So the rcommendation here is a little dangerous. Signed-off-by: "J. Bruce Fields" <bfields@citi.umich.edu> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>

* Documentation/build-docdep.perl: Fix dependencies for included asciidoc filesSergey Vlasov2007-03-01
| | | | | | | | | | | Adding dependencies on included files to the generated man pages is wrong - includes are processed by asciidoc, therefore the intermediate Docbook XML files really depend on included files. Because of these wrong dependencies the man pages were not rebuilt properly if the intermediate XML files were left in the tree.

| | | | | | | | | | | Documentation advertises the new `--depth <n>' parameter with an equal sign, while the usage notes (shown after `git-clone --help') do not. If I understood git-clone's source code correctly, the version without the equal sign is correct, which is why this patch syncs documentation to the usage note.

* Attempt to improve git-rebase lead-in description.Shawn O. Pearce2007-02-17
| | | | | | | | | | | | | It was mentioned on #git this morning that the lead-in description of git-rebase is very confusing. Too many branch this and branch that in a very short run of text.

| | | | | | | | | | | It was unclear if the backward compatible features were disabled or the configuration variables that controls them were set to false by default from the description. Obviously we meant the former, but the problem was made worse by the fact that one configuration variable breaks compatibility when set to true and the other one breaks it when set to false.
