2007-06-07War on whitespaceLibravatar Junio C Hamano1-2/+1
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.

2005-10-03[PATCH] Random documentation fixesLibravatar Jonas Fonseca1-6/+6
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.

2005-09-11[PATCH] Escape asciidoc's built-in em-dash replacementLibravatar Yasushi SHOJI1-7/+7
AsciiDoc replace '--' with em-dash (&#8212) by default. em-dash looks a lot like a single long dash and it's very confusing when we are talking about command options. Section 21.2.8 'Replacements' of AsciiDoc's User Guide says that a backslash in front of double dash prevent the replacement. This patch does just that.

2005-09-07Big tool rename.Libravatar Junio C Hamano1-2/+2
As promised, this is the "big tool rename" patch. The primary differences since 0.99.6 are: (1) git-*-script are no more. The commands installed do not have any such suffix so users do not have to remember if something is implemented as a shell script or not. (2) Many command names with 'cache' in them are renamed with 'index' if that is what they mean. There are backward compatibility symblic links so that you and Porcelains can keep using the old names, but the backward compatibility support is expected to be removed in the near future.

2005-06-19[PATCH] Rework -B output.Libravatar Junio C Hamano1-0/+9
Patch for a completely rewritten file detected by the -B flag was shown as a pair of creation followed by deletion in earlier versions. This was an misguided attempt to make reviewing such a complete rewrite easier, and unnecessarily ended up confusing git-apply. Instead, show the entire contents of old version prefixed with '-', followed by the entire contents of new version prefixed with '+'. This gives the same easy-to-review for human consumer while keeping it a single, regular modification patch for machine consumption, something that even GNU patch can grok.

2005-06-05[PATCH] Documentation: describe diff tweaking.Libravatar Junio C Hamano1-0/+241
This adds documentation for the diffcore mechanism and explains how numeric parameters to -B/-C/-M options affect the output, which was left "black magic" so far. The documentation is not connected to any of the other asciidoc nodes yet. Awaiting for suggestions, fixes and help from other people.
