2020-06-25docs: adjust the technical overview for the rename `pu` -> `seen`Libravatar Johannes Schindelin1-16/+16
This patch tries to rewrite history a bit: the mail contents that have been added to Git's source code are actually fixed, we cannot change them in hindsight. But as the `pu` branch _was_ renamed, and as the documents were added to Git's source code not so much as historical record, but to describe the status quo, let's pretend that we have a time machine and adjust the provided information accordingly. Where appropriate, quotes were added for readability. Signed-off-by: Johannes Schindelin <johannes.schindelin@gmx.de> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

2013-02-01Documentation: avoid poor-man's small caps GITLibravatar Thomas Ackermann1-3/+3
In the earlier days, we used to spell the name of the system as GIT, to simulate as if it were typeset with capital G and IT in small caps. Later we stopped doing so at around 1.6.5 days. Let's stop doing so throughout the documentation. The name to refer to the whole system (and the concept it embodies) is "Git"; the command end-users type is "git". And document this in the coding guideline. Signed-off-by: Thomas Ackermann <th.acker@arcor.de> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2012-10-18Documentation/howto: convert plain text files to asciidocLibravatar Thomas Ackermann1-5/+6
These were not originally meant for asciidoc, but they are already so close. Mark them up in asciidoc. Signed-off-by: Thomas Ackermann <th.acker@arcor.de> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2009-01-13Fix Documentation typos surrounding the word 'handful'.Libravatar Jon Loeliger1-1/+1
Some instances replaced by "handful of", others use the word "few", a couple get a slight rewording. Signed-off-by: Jon Loeliger <jdl@freescale.com> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2008-07-21Update my e-mail addressLibravatar Junio C Hamano1-1/+1
The old cox.net address is still getting mails from gitters. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2007-06-07War on whitespaceLibravatar Junio C Hamano1-7/+5
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.

2007-01-17git-format-patch: the default suffix is now .patch, not .txtLibravatar Junio C Hamano1-1/+1
Editors often give easier handling of patch files if the filename ends with .patch, so use it instead of .txt. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>

2005-11-19Documentation: rebase-from-internal minor updates.Libravatar Junio C Hamano1-5/+2
git-commit -v flag has been the default for quite some time, so do not mention it. Also a typofix. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>
2005-09-07Big tool rename.Libravatar Junio C Hamano1-1/+1
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.

2005-08-29Remove git-apply-patch-script.Libravatar Junio C Hamano1-1/+1
Now the rebase is rewritten to use git cherry-pick, there is no user for that ancient script. I've checked Cogito and StGIT to make sure they do not use it. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>
2005-08-26Add Abstract: support for howto index generator.Libravatar Junio C Hamano1-0/+5
Maybe it's time for me to really learn asciidoc. Also I should do Perl ;-). Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>
2005-08-15[PATCH] Add some simple howtos, culled from the mailing list.Libravatar Ryan Anderson1-0/+163
I think these are useful, and I think putting them in a new "howto" directory might help some users until we get to the point of splitting up the tutorial to be easier to read. Given the authorship, I think it's safe to put these in the repository. Signed-off-by: Ryan Anderson <ryan@michonline.com>
