2010-11-03Change "tracking branch" to "remote-tracking branch"Libravatar Matthieu Moy1-10/+10
One more step towards consistancy. We change the documentation and the C code in a single patch, since the only instances in the C code are in comment and usage strings. Signed-off-by: Matthieu Moy <Matthieu.Moy@imag.fr> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

2009-10-09Documentation: clarify "working tree" definitionLibravatar Jonathan Nieder1-3/+3
It is not necessarily obvious to a git novice what it means for a filesystem tree to be equal to the HEAD. Spell it out. Signed-off-by: Jonathan Nieder <jrnieder@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

2009-03-17Documentation: remove extra quoting/emphasis around literal textsLibravatar Chris Johnsen1-1/+1
If literal text (asciidoc `...`) can be rendered in a differently from normal text for each output format (man, HTML), then we do not need extra quotes or other wrapping around inline literal text segments. config.txt Change '`...`' to `...`. In asciidoc, the single quotes provide emphasis, literal text should be distintive enough. Change "`...`" to `...`. These double quotes do not work if present in the described config value, so drop them. git-checkout.txt Change "`...`" to `...` or `"..."`. All instances are command line argument examples. One "`-`" becomes `-`. Two others are involve curly braces, so move the double quotes inside the literal region to indicate that they might need to be quoted on the command line of certain shells (tcsh). git-merge.txt Change "`...`" to `...`. All instances are used to describe merge conflict markers. The quotes should are not important. git-rev-parse.txt Change "`...`" to `...`. All instances are around command line arguments where no in-shell quoting should be necessary. gitcli.txt Change `"..."` to `...`. All instances are around command line examples or single command arguments. They do not semanticly belong inside the literal text, and they are not needed outside it. glossary-content.txt user-manual.txt Change "`...`" to `...`. All instances were around command lines.

Since f98f8cb (Ship sample hooks with .sample suffix, 2008-06-24) hooks are not enabled by making them executable anymore, but by removing the '.sample' suffix from the filename. Signed-off-by: Markus Heidelberg <markus.heidelberg@web.de> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

2008-06-01Documentation: convert "glossary" and "core-tutorial" to man pagesLibravatar Christian Couder1-0/+454
This patch renames the following documents and at the same time converts them to the man format: core-tutorial.txt -> gitcore-tutorial.txt glossary.txt -> gitglossary.txt But as the glossary is included in the user manual and as the new gitglossary man page cannot be included as a whole in the user manual, the actual glossary content is now in its own "glossary-content.txt" new file. And this file is included by both the user manual and the gitglossary man page. Other documents that reference the above ones are changed accordingly and sometimes improved a little too.
