2019-09-28user-manual.txt: render ASCII art correctly under AsciidoctorLibravatar Martin Ågren1-9/+11
This commit is similar to 379805051d ("Documentation: render revisions correctly under Asciidoctor", 2018-05-06) and is a no-op with AsciiDoc. When creating a literal block from an indented block without any sort of delimiters, Asciidoctor strips off all leading whitespace, resulting in a misrendered ASCII drawing. Use an explicit literal block to indicate to Asciidoctor that we want to keep the leading whitespace. Drop the common indentation for all lines to make this a no-op with AsciiDoc.

2019-09-28asciidoctor-extensions.rb: handle "book" doctype in linkgitLibravatar Martin Ågren1-2/+5
user-manual.txt is the only file we process using the "book" doctype. When we use AsciiDoc, user-manual.conf ensures that the linkgit macro expands into something like <ulink url="git-foo.html">git-foo(1)</ulink> in user-manual.xml, which we then process into a clickable link, both in user-manual.html and user-manual.pdf. With Asciidoctor, user-manual.conf is ignored (this is expected) and our Asciidoctor-specific implementation of linkgit kicks in: <citerefentry> <refentrytitle>git-foo</refentrytitle><manvolnum>1</manvolnum> </citerefentry> This eventually renders as "git-foo(1)", which is not bad, but it doesn't turn into a link. Teach our Asciidoctor-specific implementation of the linkgit macro that if the doctype is "book", we should emit <ulink .../> just like we do with AsciiDoc. While we're doing this, future-proof by supporting a "prefix". The implementation in user-manual.conf doesn't support this, and we don't need this for now because user-manual.txt is the only file we process this way (and it's immediately in Documentation/).

2019-09-28user-manual.txt: change header notationLibravatar Martin Ågren1-236/+120
When AsciiDoc processes user-manual.txt, it generates a book containing chapters containing sections. So for example, we have chapter 6, "Advanced branch management", which contains four relatively short sections, 6.1-6.4. Asciidoctor generates a book containing *parts* containing *chapters* instead. So part 6, "Advanced branch management" contains four short chapters, 1-4. This looks a bit odd. To make AsciiDoc (8.6.10) and Asciidoctor (1.5.5) handle these the same, change from indicating chapters like so: [[foobar]] Foobar ====== to doing it like so: [[foobar]] == Foobar Same thing for sections (line of dashes to ===), subsections (line of tildes to ====) and subsubsections (line of carets to =====). Mark the appendices with "[appendix]", which both AsciiDoc and Asciidoctor understand. This means we need to drop the "Appendix X: " from their titles, or those "Appendix X: " would be included literally in the name of the appendix. This commit is a no-op for AsciiDoc: The generated user-manual.xml is identical before and after this patch. Asciidoctor now creates the same chapter-section-subsection structure as AsciiDoc. Changing the book title at the start of the document to similarly use "=" instead of a line of equal signs makes no difference with any of the engines, but let's do that change anyway for consistency.

diff, log doc: say "patch text" instead of "patches" A poster on Stackoverflow was confused that the documentation of git-log promised to generate "patches" or "patch files" with -p, but there were none to be found.

2019-09-16doc-diff: replace --cut-header-footer with --cut-footerLibravatar Martin Ågren1-9/+8
After the previous commit, AsciiDoc and Asciidoctor render the manpage headers identically, so we no longer need the "cut the header" part of our `--cut-header-footer` option. We do still need the "cut the footer" part, though. The previous commits improved the rendering of the footer in Asciidoctor by quite a bit, but the two programs still disagree on how to format the date in the footer: 01/01/1970 vs 1970-01-01. We could keep using `--cut-header-footer`, but it would be nice if we had a slightly smaller hammer `--cut-footer` that would be less likely to hide regressions. Rather than simply adding such an option, let's also drop `--cut-header-footer`, i.e., rework it to lose the "header" part of its name and functionality. `--cut-header-footer` is just a developer tool and it probably has no more than a handful of users, so we can afford to be aggressive.

2019-09-16asciidoctor-extensions: provide `<refmiscinfo/>`Libravatar Martin Ågren1-0/+17
As can be seen from the previous commit, there are three attributes that we provide to AsciiDoc through asciidoc.conf. Asciidoctor ignores that file. After that patch, newer versions of Asciidoctor pick up the `manmanual` and `mansource` attributes as we invoke `asciidoctor`, but they don't pick up `manversion`. ([1] says: "Not used by Asciidoctor.") Older versions (<1.5.7) don't handle these attributes at all. As a result, we are missing one or three `<refmiscinfo/>` tags in each xml-file produced when we build with Asciidoctor. Because of this, xmlto doesn't include the Git version number in the rendered manpages. And in particular, with versions <1.5.7, the manpage footers instead contain the fairly ugly "[FIXME: source]". That Asciidoctor ignores asciidoc.conf is nothing new. This is why we implement the `linkgit:` macro in asciidoc.conf *and* in asciidoctor-extensions.rb. Follow suit and provide these tags in asciidoctor-extensions.rb, using a "postprocessor" extension where we just search and replace in the XML, treated as text. We may consider a few alternatives: * Inject these lines into the xml-files from the *Makefile*, e.g., using `sed`. That would reduce repetition, but it feels wrong to impose another step and another risk on the AsciiDoc-processing only to benefit the Asciidoctor-one. * I tried providing a "docinfo processor" to inject these tags, but could not figure out how to "merge" the two <refmeta/> sections that resulted. To avoid xmlto barfing on the result, I needed to use `xmlto --skip-validation ...`, which seems unfortunate. Let's instead inject the missing tags using a postprocessor. We'll make it fairly obvious that we aim to inject the exact same three lines of `<refmiscinfo/>` that asciidoc.conf provides. We inject them in *post*-processing so we need to do the variable expansion ourselves. We do introduce the bug that asciidoc.conf already has in that we won't do any escaping, e.g., of funky versions like "some v <2.25, >2.20". The postprocessor we add here works on the XML as raw text and doesn't really use the full potential of XML to do a more structured injection. This is actually precisely what the Asciidoctor User Manual does in its postprocessor example [2]. I looked into two other approaches: 1. The nokogiri library is apparently the "modern" way of doing XML in ruby. I got it working fairly easily: require 'nokogiri' doc = Nokogiri::XML(output) doc.search("refmeta").each { |n| n.add_child(new_tags) } output = doc.to_xml However, this adds another dependency (e.g., the "ruby-nokogiri" package on Ubuntu). Using Asciidoctor is not our default, but it will probably need to become so soon. Let's avoid adding a dependency just so that we can say "search...add_child" rather than "sub(regex...)". 2. The older REXML is apparently always(?) bundled with ruby, but I couldn't even parse the original document: require 'rexml/document' doc = REXML::Document.new(output) ... The error was "no implicit conversion of nil into String" and I stopped there. I don't think it's unlikely that doing a plain old search-and-replace will work just as fine or better compared to parsing XML and worrying about libraries and library versions.

2019-09-16Doc/Makefile: give mansource/-version/-manual attributesLibravatar Martin Ågren2-4/+5
Rather than hardcoding "Git Manual" and "Git" as the manual and source in asciidoc.conf, provide them as attributes `manmanual` and `mansource`. Rename the `git_version` attribute to `manversion`. These new attribute names are not arbitrary, see, e.g., [1]. For AsciiDoc (8.6.10) and Asciidoctor <1.5.7, this is a no-op. Starting with Asciidoctor 1.5.7, `manmanual` and `mansource` actually end up in the xml-files and eventually in the rendered manpages. In particular, the manpage headers now render just as with AsciiDoc. No versions of Asciidoctor pick up the `manversion` [2], and older versions don't pick up any of these attributes. -- We'll fix that with a bit of a hack in the next commit.

2019-09-16git-submodule.txt: fix AsciiDoc formatting errorLibravatar Denton Liu1-1/+2
In b57e8119e6 (submodule: teach set-branch subcommand, 2019-02-08), the `set-branch` subcommand was added for submodules. When the documentation was written, the syntax for a "index term" in AsciiDoc was accidentally used. This caused the documentation to be rendered as set-branch -d|--default)|(-b|--branch <branch> [--] <path> instead of set-branch ((-d|--default)|(-b|--branch <branch>)) [--] <path> In addition to this, the original documentation was possibly confusing as it made it seem as if the `-b` option didn't accept a `<branch>` argument. Break `--default` and `--branch` into their own separate invocations to make it obvious that these options are mutually exclusive. Also, this removes the surrounding parentheses so that the "index term" syntax is not triggered. Signed-off-by: Denton Liu <liu.denton@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2019-09-16Documentation: fix build with Asciidoctor 2Libravatar brian m. carlson2-1/+6
Our documentation toolchain has traditionally been built around DocBook 4.5. This version of DocBook is the last DTD-based version of DocBook. In 2009, DocBook 5 was introduced using namespaces and its syntax is expressed in RELAX NG, which is more expressive and allows a wider variety of syntax forms. Asciidoctor, one of the alternatives for building our documentation, moved support for DocBook 4.5 out of core in its recent 2.0 release and now only supports DocBook 5 in the main release. The DocBoook 4.5 converter is still available as a separate component, but this is not available in most distro packages. This would not be a problem but for the fact that we use xmlto, which is still stuck in the DocBook 4.5 era. xmlto performs DTD validation as part of the build process. This is not problematic for DocBook 4.5, which has a valid DTD, but it clearly cannot work for DocBook 5, since no DTD can adequately express its full syntax. In addition, even if xmlto did support RELAX NG validation, that wouldn't be sufficient because it uses the libxml2-based xmllint to do so, which has known problems with validating interleaves in RELAX NG. Fortunately, there's an easy way forward: ask Asciidoctor to use its DocBook 5 backend and tell xmlto to skip validation. Asciidoctor has supported DocBook 5 since v0.1.4 in 2013 and xmlto has supported skipping validation for probably longer than that. We also need to teach xmlto how to use the namespaced DocBook XSLT stylesheets instead of the non-namespaced ones it usually uses. Normally these stylesheets are interchangeable, but the non-namespaced ones have a bug that causes them not to strip whitespace automatically from certain elements when namespaces are in use. This results in additional whitespace at the beginning of list elements, which is jarring and unsightly. We can do this by passing a custom stylesheet with the -x option that simply imports the namespaced stylesheets via a URL. Any system with support for XML catalogs will automatically look this URL up and reference a local copy instead without us having to know where this local copy is located. We know that anyone using xmlto will already have catalogs set up properly since the DocBook 4.5 DTD used during validation is also looked up via catalogs. All major Linux distributions distribute the necessary stylesheets and have built-in catalog support, and Homebrew does as well, albeit with a requirement to set an environment variable to enable catalog support. On the off chance that someone lacks support for catalogs, it is possible for xmlto (via xmllint) to download the stylesheets from the URLs in question, although this will likely perform poorly enough to attract attention. People still have the option of using the prebuilt documentation that we ship, so happily this should not be an impediment. Finally, we need to filter out some messages from other stylesheets that occur when invoking dblatex in the CI job. This tool strips namespaces much like the unnamespaced DocBook stylesheets and prints similar messages. If we permit these messages to be printed to standard error, our documentation CI job will fail because we check standard error for unexpected output. Due to dblatex's reliance on Python 2, we may need to revisit its use in the future, in which case this problem may go away, but this can be delayed until a future patch. The final message we filter is due to libxslt on modern Debian and Ubuntu. The patch which they use to implement reproducible ID generation also prints messages about the ID generation. While this doesn't affect our current CI images since they use Ubuntu 16.04 which lacks this patch, if we upgrade to Ubuntu 18.04 or a modern Debian, these messages will appear and, like the above messages, cause a CI failure.

We promoted the "indent heuristics" that decides where to split diff hunks from experimental to the default a few years ago, but some stale documentation still marked it as experimental, which has been corrected. * sg/diff-indent-heuristic-non-experimental: diff: 'diff.indentHeuristic' is no longer experimental

A mechanism to affect the default setting for a (related) group of configuration variables is introduced. * ds/feature-macros: repo-settings: create feature.experimental setting repo-settings: create feature.manyFiles setting repo-settings: parse core.untrackedCache commit-graph: turn on commit-graph by default t6501: use 'git gc' in quiet mode repo-settings: consolidate some config settings
2019-09-09Merge branch 'jk/eoo'Libravatar Junio C Hamano1-0/+6
The command line parser learned "--end-of-options" notation; the standard convention for scripters to have hardcoded set of options first on the command line, and force the command to treat end-user input as non-options, has been to use "--" as the delimiter, but that would not work for commands that use "--" as a delimiter between revs and pathspec. * jk/eoo: gitcli: document --end-of-options parse-options: allow --end-of-options as a synonym for "--" revision: allow --end-of-options to end option parsing
2019-09-09gitweb.conf.txt: switch pluses to backticks to help AsciidoctorLibravatar Martin Ågren1-3/+3
This paragraph uses a lot of +pluses+ to render text as monospace. That works fine with AsciiDoc (8.6.10), and almost fine with Asciidoctor (1.5.5), which renders the third of these literally ("+$projname+"). The reason seems to be that Asciidoctor trips on the lone plus a bit earlier, even though it is escaped. Switch +$projname+ to `$projname`, and change the next, similar instance too (+$projname/+), because otherwise, we'd trip on /that one/ instead. If we would stop there, we would now start falling over on the escaped plus ('\+') mentioned earlier, rendering /it/ literally. So change that too... In other words, unescape the lone '+' and change all the pluses that follow it to backticks. AsciiDoc renders this paragraph identically before and after this commit, and Asciidoctor now renders this the same as AsciiDoc. I did try to switch the whole paragraph to using backticks rather than pluses. That worked great with Asciidoctor, but confused AsciiDoc... Let's go with this rather surgical change instead.

2019-09-09git-merge-index.txt: wrap shell listing in "----"Libravatar Martin Ågren1-11/+15
The example output of `git merge-index` has been enriched by a second "column" of helpful comments. When Asciidoctor renders this, the cells in that second column aren't aligned. Fix this by marking the example shell session as a code listing by wrapping it in "----". Also drop some of the horizontal space between the two columns so that we fit into 80 columns. This changes the rendering with both AsciiDoc and Asciidoctor. They now render this identically, nicely aligned, and within 80 columns.
