2010-09-01install-webdoc: filter timestamp-only changes correctlyLibravatar Junio C Hamano1-1/+1
The timestamp that follows "Last updated " is formatted differently depending on the version of AsciiDoc. Looking at 4604fe56 on "html" branch, you can see that AsciiDoc 7.0.2 used to give "02-Jul-2008 03:02:14 UTC" but AsciiDoc 8.2.5 gave "2008-09-19 06:33:25 UTC". We haven't been correctly filtering out phantom changes that result from only the build date for some time now, it seems. Just filter lines that begin with "Last updated ".

2010-08-24Work around em-dash handling in newer AsciiDocLibravatar Junio C Hamano7-18/+19
Older versions of AsciiDoc used to literally pass double dashes when we used them in our linkgit macros and manpage titles, but newer ones (the issue was first reported with AsciiDoc 8.5.2) turn them into em dashes. Define litdd (literal double-dash) custom attribute in asciidoc.conf to work this around. While we are at it, fix a few double-dashes (e.g. the description of "project--devo--version" convention used by tla, among other things) that used to be incorrectly written as em dashes in the body text to also use this attribute.

2010-08-20Documentation: remove stray backslash in show-branch discussionLibravatar Jonathan Nieder1-4/+4

2010-08-20Documentation: remove stray backslashes in rev-parse manualLibravatar Jonathan Nieder1-4/+5

2010-08-20Documentation: remove stray backslash from "git bundle" manualLibravatar Jonathan Nieder1-4/+4
In v1.6.2.2~6^2~4 (Documentation: minor grammatical fixes and rewording in git-bundle.txt, 2009-03-22), backslashes were introduced before ~ to avoid introducing unintentional superscripts. In one paragraph there is only one ~, though, making that not a candidate for quoting, and asciidoc 8.5.8 passes the backslash through so the man page says "\~10..master". Maybe there is an asciidoc behavior change involved. In any case, we should replace tildes with a {tilde} entity which means the same thing regardless of where it is found.

2010-08-20Documentation/technical: avoid stray backslash in parse-options API docsLibravatar Jonathan Nieder1-4/+4
Due to some unpleasant interaction between the `quote', 'italics', and `monospace` rules, a certain paragraph ends up rendered like so: ‘short` is a character for the short option (e.g. <tt>'e\’</tt> for <tt>-e</tt>, use <tt>0</tt> to omit), Use the {apostrophe} to avoid this. While at it, escape "->" strings: they are meant as a literal two-character C operator, not a right-pointing arrow.

2010-08-20Documentation: remove backslashes in manpage synopsesLibravatar Jonathan Nieder7-10/+10
For some reason, various manual pages have an asterisk escaped with \ in the synopsis. Since there is no other asterisk to pair it with, Asciidoc does not consider this asterisk escapable, so it passes the backslash through. Each page either uses [verse] or has only one asterisk, so it is safe to drop the backslashes (checked with asciidoc 8.5.2).

2010-08-20Documentation: clarify quoting in gitignore docsLibravatar Jonathan Nieder1-2/+2
An asterisk in "Documentation/*.txt" quoted with \ to avoid bold text is being output as \* because asciidoc does not consider it a candidate for escaping (there is no matching * to pair it with). So the manual looks like it is saying that one should write "Documentation/\*.txt" in the .gitignore file.

2010-08-20Documentation: clarify quoting in "git rm" exampleLibravatar Jonathan Nieder1-3/+3
Intended output: git rm Documentation/\*.txt Removes all *.txt files from the index that are under the Documentation directory and any of its subdirectories. Note that the asterisk * is quoted from the shell in this example; this lets git, and not the shell, expand the pathnames of files and subdirectories under the Documentation/ directory. Without this change, there are too many backslashes output. Tested with asciidoc 8.5.2.

2010-08-20Documentation: add missing quotes to "git grep" examplesLibravatar Jonathan Nieder1-2/+2
Without an indication to the contrary, Asciidoc puts 'quoted text' in italics, making the output look like this: git grep time_t -- *.[ch] Looks for time_t in all tracked .c and .h files in the working directory and its subdirectories. git grep -e '#define\' --and \( -e MAX_PATH -e PATH_MAX \) Looks for a line that has #define and either MAX_PATH or PATH_MAX. In the first example, the *.[ch] argument needs to be protected from the shell, or else it will only match files in the current directory. The second example has a stray backslash.

The intended text looks like this: · Adds content from all *.txt files under Documentation directory and its subdirectories: $ git add Documentation/\*.txt Note that the asterisk * is quoted from the shell in this example; this lets the command include the files from subdirectories of Documentation/ directory. The current asciidoc 8.5.2 output has a backslash before _every_ asterisk, which is more confusing than it needs to be.

2010-08-20Documentation: unbreak regex in show-ref manualLibravatar Jonathan Nieder2-2/+3
I am not sure why, but the regular expression "(?:\^\{\})" gets rendered by asciidoc as "(?:\{})". The intent seems to be a regex matching the literal string "^{}", so this rewrites the markup to produce "(?:\^{})" as output.

2010-08-20Documentation: quoting trouble in "git rm" discussionLibravatar Jonathan Nieder2-1/+3
The current output (with Asciidoc 8.5.2) seems a bit broken: given two directories ‘d` and d2, there is a difference between using git rm 'd*’ and ‘git rm 'd/\*\’`, as the former will also remove all of directory d2. In other words, the markup parses as given two directories << d` and _d2_, there is a difference between using _git rm 'd* >>_ and << git rm 'd/\*\ >> `. I suspect there is an asciidoc bug involved (why is ' a candidate closing-quote mark when it is preceded by a backslash?) but with all the meanings of ` and ' involved I do not want to track it down. Better to use unambiguous {asterisk} and {apostrophe} entities. Signed-off-by: Jonathan Nieder <jrnieder@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
