* maint: git-rm.txt: Fix quoting
2010-12-07git-rm.txt: Fix quotingLibravatar Michael J Gruber1-6/+6
Literal " produces typographically incorrect quotations, but "works" in most circumstances. In the subheadings of git-rm.txt, it "works" for the html backend but not for the docbook conversion to nroff: double "" and spurious double spaces appear in the output. Replace "incorrect" quotations by ``correct'' ones, and fix other "quotations" which are really `code fragments`. This should make git-rm.txt "-clean.

2010-12-03Documentation: do not misinterpret pull refspec as bold textLibravatar Jonathan Nieder1-2/+2
Use the {asterisk} entity to avoid mistreating the asterisks in "(e.g., refs/heads/*:refs/remotes/origin/*)" as delimiters for bold text. From a quick search with 'git grep -e "\*.*\*"', this seems to be the last example of this particular formatting problem.

2010-12-03web--browse: better support for chromiumLibravatar Giuseppe Bilotta1-2/+2
On Debian-based distributions, Chromium the browser is available under the name chromium-browser rather than chromium, to prevent conflicts with the Chromium B.S.U. game. Look for chromium-browser first when setting the path for chromium, and also add chromium-browser as a supported browser name. Document the dual-name support, and mention the dual-name support for (google-)chrome too.

2010-12-02Documentation: Fix mark-up of lines with more than one tildeLibravatar Junio C Hamano2-2/+2
The manual pages of cherry-pick and revert had examples with two revisions on the same line in the examples section, that looked like this: git cherry-pick master~4 master~2:: Unfortunately, this is taken as a mark-up to make the part between two tildes, "4 master", subscript. Use {tilde} to make it explicit that we do want ~ characters in these places (backslash does not help).

2010-12-01Make the tab width used for whitespace checks configurableLibravatar Johannes Sixt2-2/+7
A new whitespace "rule" is added that sets the tab width to use for whitespace checks and fix-ups and replaces the hard-coded constant 8. Since the setting is part of the rules, it can be set per file using .gitattributes. The new configuration is backwards compatible because older git versions simply ignore unknown whitespace rules.

2010-12-01add: introduce add.ignoreerrors synonym for add.ignore-errorsLibravatar Jonathan Nieder1-1/+5
The "[add] ignore-errors" tweakable introduced by v1.5.6-rc0~30^2 (Add a config option to ignore errors for git-add, 2008-05-12) does not follow the usual convention for naming values in the git configuration file. What convention? Glad you asked. The section name indicates the affected subsystem. The subsection name, if any, indicates which of an unbound set of things to set the value for. The variable name describes the effect of tweaking this knob. The section and variable names can be broken into words using bumpyCaps in documentation as a hint to the reader. These word breaks are not significant at the level of code, since the section and variable names are not case sensitive. The name "add.ignore-errors" includes a dash, meaning a naive configuration file like [add] ignoreErrors does not have any effect. Avoid such confusion by renaming to the more consistent add.ignoreErrors, but keep the old version for backwards compatibility.

2010-11-24docs: default to more modern toolsetLibravatar Jeff King2-15/+12
When the ASCIIDOC8 and ASCIIDOC_NO_ROFF knobs were built, many people were still on asciidoc 7 and using older versions of docbook-xsl. These days, even the almost 2-year-old Debian stable needs these knobs turned. So let's turn them by default. The new knobs ASCIIDOC7 and ASCIIDOC_ROFF can be used to get the old behavior if people are on older systems. Signed-off-by: Jeff King <peff@peff.net> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
