| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | format.numbered is a tri-state variable. Boolean values enable or disable numbering by default and "auto" enables number when outputting more than one patch. --no-numbered (short: -N) will disable numbering.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Junio screwed up when applying the previous round of the patch; rewording from "previous" to "old" does make the description clearer. Also revert the rewording from head to branch. The description is talking about the branch's tip commit and using the word head is clearer. Based on input from Sergei and Bruce.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | From version 1.72 it will replace all dots in roff requests with U+2302 ("house" character), and add escaping in output for all instances of dot that are not in roff requests. This caused the ".ft" hack forcing monospace font in listingblocks to end up as "\&.ft" and being visible in the resulting man page. The fix adds a DOCBOOK_XSL_172 build variable that will disable the hack. To allow this variable to be defined in config.mak it also moves build variable handling below the inclusion of config.mak.
