2012-12-13git.txt: add missing info about --git-dir command-line optionLibravatar Manlio Perillo1-0/+1
Unlike other environment variables (e.g. GIT_WORK_TREE, GIT_NAMESPACE), the Documentation/git.txt file did not mention that the GIT_DIR environment variable can also be set using the --git-dir command line option.

2012-11-29git-fast-import.txt: improve documentation for quoted pathsLibravatar Matthieu Moy1-2/+6
The documentation mentioned only newlines and double quotes as characters needing escaping, but the backslash also needs it. Also, the documentation was not clearly saying that double quotes around the file name were required (double quotes in the examples could be interpreted as part of the sentence, not part of the actual string).

2012-11-27Documentation: improve phrasing in git-push.txtLibravatar Mark Szepieniec1-1/+2
The current version contains the sentence: Further suppose that the other person already pushed changes leading to A back to the original repository you two obtained the original commit X. which doesn't parse for me; I've changed it to Further suppose that the other person already pushed changes leading to A back to the original repository from which you two obtained the original commit X.

2012-10-07gitignore.txt: suggestions how to get literal # or ! at the beginningLibravatar Nguyễn Thái Ngọc Duy1-1/+5
We support backslash escape, but we hide the details behind the phrase "a shell glob suitable for consumption by fnmatch(3)". So it may not be obvious how one can get literal # or ! at the beginning of pattern. Add a few lines on how to work around the magic characters.
