2020-06-25docs: adjust for the recent rename of `pu` to `seen`Libravatar Johannes Schindelin1-5/+5
As of "What's cooking in git.git (Jun 2020, #04; Mon, 22)", there is no longer any `pu` branch, but a `seen` branch. While we technically do not even need to update the manual pages, it makes sense to update them because they clearly talk about branches in git.git. Please note that in two instances, this patch not only updates the branch name, but also the description "(proposed updates)". Where appropriate, quotes have been added for readability.

2019-05-07doc: promote "git restore"Libravatar Nguyễn Thái Ngọc Duy1-3/+2
The new command "git restore" (together with "git switch") are added to avoid the confusion of one-command-do-all "git checkout" for new users. They are also helpful to avoid ambiguous context. For these reasons, promote it everywhere possible. This includes documentation, suggestions/advice from other commands. One nice thing about git-restore is the ability to restore "everything", so it can be used in "git status" advice instead of both "git checkout" and "git reset". The three commands suggested by "git status" are add, rm and restore. "git checkout" is also removed from "git help" (i.e. it's no longer considered a commonly used command) Signed-off-by: Nguyễn Thái Ngọc Duy <pclouds@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2019-04-02doc: promote "git switch"Libravatar Nguyễn Thái Ngọc Duy1-12/+12
The new command "git switch" is added to avoid the confusion of one-command-do-all "git checkout" for new users. They are also helpful to avoid ambiguation context. For these reasons, promote it everywhere possible. This includes documentation, suggestions/advice from other commands... The "Checking out files" progress line in unpack-trees.c is also updated to "Updating files" to be neutral to both git-checkout and git-switch.

2017-01-07giteveryday: unbreak rendering with AsciiDoctorLibravatar Johannes Schindelin1-8/+9
The "giteveryday" document has a callout list that contains a code block. This is not a problem for AsciiDoc, but AsciiDoctor sadly was explicitly designed *not* to render this correctly [*1*]. The symptom is an unhelpful line 322: callout list item index: expected 1 got 12 line 325: no callouts refer to list item 1 line 325: callout list item index: expected 2 got 13 line 327: no callouts refer to list item 2 In Git for Windows, we rely on the speed improvement of AsciiDoctor (on this developer's machine, `make -j15 html` takes roughly 30 seconds with AsciiDoctor, 70 seconds with AsciiDoc), therefore we need a way to render this correctly. The easiest way out is to simplify the callout list, as suggested by AsciiDoctor's author, even while one may very well disagree with him that a code block hath no place in a callout list. *1*: https://github.com/asciidoctor/asciidoctor/issues/1478 Signed-off-by: Johannes Schindelin <johannes.schindelin@gmx.de> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2015-10-22Documentation/everyday: match undefline with the textLibravatar Junio C Hamano1-1/+1
Even though AsciiDoc is more lenient when deciding if an underline is for the contents on the previous line to find section headers, we should match the length of them for other formatters to help them. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2014-10-10doc: add 'everyday' to 'git help'Libravatar Philip Oakley1-0/+455
The "Everyday GIT With 20 Commands Or So" is not accessible via the Git help system. Move everyday.txt to giteveryday.txt so that "git help everyday" works, and create a new placeholder file everyday.html to refer people who follow existing URLs to the updated location. giteveryday.txt now formats well with AsciiDoc as a man page and refreshed content to a more command modern style. Add 'everyday' to the help --guides list and update git(1) and 5 other links to giteveryday. Signed-off-by: Philip Oakley <philipoakley@iee.org> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
