2021-01-20fsck doc: remove ancient out-of-date diagnosticsLibravatar Ævar Arnfjörð Bjarmason1-8/+0
Remove diagnostics that haven't been emitted by "fsck" or its predecessors for around 15 years. This documentation was added in c64b9b88605 (Reference documentation for the core git commands., 2005-05-05), but was out-of-date quickly after that. Notes on individual diagnostics: - "expect dangling commits": Added in bcee6fd8e71 (Make 'fsck' able to[...], 2005-04-13), documented in c64b9b88605. Not emitted since 1024932f019 (fsck-cache: walk the 'refs' directory[...], 2005-05-18). - "missing sha1 directory": Added in 20222118ae4 (Add first cut at "fsck-cache"[...], 2005-04-08), documented in c64b9b88605. Not emitted since 230f13225df (Create object subdirectories on demand, 2005-10-08).

2021-01-11docs: rephrase and clarify the git status --short formatLibravatar brian m. carlson1-8/+20
The table describing the porcelain format in git-status(1) is helpful, but it's not completely clear what the three sections mean, even to some contributors. As a result, users are unable to find how to detect common cases like merge conflicts programmatically. Let's improve this situation by rephrasing to be more explicit about what each of the sections in the table means, to tell users in plain language which cases are occurring, and to describe what "unmerged" means.

2021-01-09doc: remove "directory cache" from man pagesLibravatar Utku Gultopu2-6/+4

2021-01-07SubmittingPatches: tighten wording on "sign-off" procedureLibravatar Junio C Hamano1-1/+1
The text says "if you can certify DCO then you add a Signed-off-by trailer". But it does not say anything about people who cannot or do not want to certify. A natural reading may be that if you do not certify, you must not add the trailer, but it shouldn't hurt to be overly explicit. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2021-01-04pack-format.txt: document sizes at start of delta dataLibravatar Martin Ågren1-1/+16
We document the delta data as a set of instructions, but forget to document the two sizes that precede those instructions: the size of the base object and the size of the object to be reconstructed. Fix this omission. Rather than cramming all the details about the encoding into the running text, introduce a separate section detailing our "size encoding" and refer to it.

2021-01-04gitmodules.txt: fix 'GIT_WORK_TREE' variable nameLibravatar Philippe Blain1-15/+15
'gitmodules.txt' is a guide about the '.gitmodules' file that describes submodule properties, and that file must exist at the root of the repository. This was clarified in e5b5c1d2cf (Document clarification: gitmodules, gitattributes, 2008-08-31). However, that commit mistakenly uses the non-existing environment variable 'GIT_WORK_DIR' to refer to the root of the repository. Fix that by using the correct variable, 'GIT_WORK_TREE'. Take the opportunity to modernize and improve the formatting of that guide, and fix a grammar mistake.
