* maint: add-interactive: Clarify “remaining hunks in the file”
2010-06-13add-interactive: Clarify “remaining hunks in the file”Libravatar Jonathan Nieder1-3/+3
The "a" and "d" commands to ‘add --patch’ (accept/reject rest of file) interact with "j", "g", and "/" (skip some hunks) in a perhaps confusing way: after accepting or rejecting all _later_ hunks in the file, they return to the earlier, skipped hunks and prompt the user about them again. This behavior can be very useful in practice. One can still accept or reject _all_ undecided hunks in a file by using the "g" command to move to hunk #1 first.

2010-06-06commit.txt: clarify how --author argument is usedLibravatar Jay Soffian1-4/+5
commit --author was added by 146ea06 (git commit --author=$name: look $name up in existing commits), but its documentation was sorely lacking compared to its excellent commit message.

2010-06-02Documentation/pretty-{formats,options}: better reference for "format:<string>"Libravatar Nazri Ramliy2-4/+5
In "git help log" (and friends) it's not easy to find the possible placeholder for <string> for the "--pretty=format:<string>" option to git log. This patch makes the placeholder easier to find by adding a reference to the "PRETTY FORMATS" section and repeating the "format:<string>" phrase.

2010-05-08Documentation/notes: simplify treatment of default display refsLibravatar Jonathan Nieder1-17/+19
The main description of display refs for notes should be in git-log.1, where there is a chance to give a leisurely description of all the ways they can be set, what they are used for, and so on. The description in git-notes.1 is only meant to be a quick reminder of how notes are used. So simplify it. Also add an entry for GIT_NOTES_DISPLAY_REF to the environment section.

2010-05-08Documentation/notes: describe content of notes blobsLibravatar Jonathan Nieder1-1/+37
stripspace/text-based formatting kicks in when specifying the notes content with -m or -F, or when an editor is used to edit the notes. To binary-safely create notes from files, the following construct is required: git notes add -C $(git hash-object -w <file>) <object> Explain this trick (thanks, Johan!) in the manual. Add an ordinary example, too, to keep this esoteric one company.
