* manpages: italicize git command names (which were in teletype font)Jonathan Nieder2008-07-051-4/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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 Nieder2008-07-011-2/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | 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.

* Documentation: be consistent about "git-" versus "git "Jonathan Nieder2008-07-011-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Since the git-* commands are not installed in $(bindir), using "git-command <parameters>" in examples in the documentation is not a good idea. On the other hand, it is nice to be able to refer to each command using one hyphenated word. (There is no escaping it, anyway: man page names cannot have spaces in them.) This patch retains the dash in naming an operation, command, program, process, or action. Complete command lines that can be entered at a shell (i.e., without options omitted) are made to use the dashless form. The changes consist only of replacing some spaces with hyphens and vice versa. After a "s/ /-/g", the unpatched and patched versions are identical. Signed-off-by: Jonathan Nieder <jrnieder@uchicago.edu> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
* Docs: Use "-l::\n--long\n" format in OPTIONS sectionsStephan Beyer2008-06-081-2/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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 Couder2008-06-061-1/+1
| | | | | | | | 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 McGee2008-01-061-4/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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>
* git-blame -w: ignore whitespaceJunio C Hamano2007-06-091-1/+6
| | | | | | | | | | | When refactoring code to split one iteration of a too deeply nested loop into a separate function, it inevitably makes the indentation levels shallower (that's the sole point of such a refactoring). With "git blame -w", you can ignore such re-indentation and pass blame for such moved lines to the parent. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
* blame -s: suppress author name and time.Junio C Hamano2007-04-291-1/+4
| | | | | | | With this "git blame -b -s HEAD~n..HEAD" becomes a nicer way to review the result of recent changes in context. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>
* Update git-annotate/git-blame documentationAndrew Ruder2007-04-161-50/+14
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Moved options that pertained to both git-blame and git-annotate to a common file blame-options.txt. builtin-blame.c: Removed --compatibility, --long, --time from the short usage as they are not handled in the code. Documentation/git-blame.txt: Removed common options to git-annotate. Added documentation for --score-debug. Removed --compatibility. Adjusted usage at top to not wrap on 80 columns. Documentation/git-annotate.txt: Using common options blame-options.txt. Documentation/blame-options.txt: Added -b note about associated config option, added --root note about associated config option, added documentation for --show-stats. Removed --long, --time, --rev-file as those options do not really exist. Added documentation for -M/-C taking an optional score argument for detection of moved lines.

* git-pickaxe: retire pickaxeJunio C Hamano2006-11-081-2/+68
| | | | | | | | | Just make it take over blame's place. Documentation and command have all stopped mentioning "git-pickaxe". The built-in synonym is left in the command table, so you can still say "git pickaxe", but it probably is a good idea to retire it as well. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>
