2010-04-09fetch/push: fix usage stringsLibravatar Tay Ray Chuan2-5/+5
- use "<options>" instead of just "options". - use "[<repository> [<refspec>...]]" to indicate that <repository> and <refspec> are optional, and that <refspec> cannot be specified without specifying <repository>. Note that when called without specifying <repository> (eg. "git fetch -f"), it is accurate to say that the "git fetch [<options>] [<repository> ...]" case takes precedence over "git fetch [<options>] <group>".

2010-03-24imap-send: Remove limitation on message bodyLibravatar Ramkumar Ramachandra1-7/+3
There is a documented limitation on the body of any email not being able to contain lines starting with "From ". This patch removes that limitation by improving the parser to search for "From", "Date", and "Subject" fields in the email before considering it to be an email.

2010-03-21Documentation/git-clone: Transform description list into item listLibravatar Michael J Gruber1-5/+5
so that the list of examples is formatted in the same way as for git-fetch, and, more importantly, the different identation for the code blocks in the examples (compared to the immediately preceding code blocks from url.txt) doesn't look like misformatted, but is clarified by the items' bullets.

2010-03-21Documentation/urls: Remove spurious example markersLibravatar Michael J Gruber1-6/+0
In urls.txt (which is included from git-{clone,fetch,push}.txt) several item lists are surrounded by example block markers. This is problematic for two reasons: - None of these lists are example lists, so they should not be marked as such semantically. - The html output looks weird (bulleted list with left sidebar). Therefore, remove the example block markers. Output by the man backend is unaffected. Signed-off-by: Michael J Gruber <git@drmicha.warpmail.net> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2010-03-21Documentation/gitdiffcore: Remove misleading date in headingLibravatar Michael J Gruber1-1/+1
