It turns out that the earlier effort to update the heuristics may want to use a bit more time to mature. Turn it off by default. * jk/diff-compact-heuristic: diff: disable compaction heuristic for now
2016-06-10diff: disable compaction heuristic for nowLibravatar Junio C Hamano2-0/+12
http://lkml.kernel.org/g/20160610075043.GA13411@sigill.intra.peff.net reports that a change to add a new "function" with common ending with the existing one at the end of the file is shown like this: def foo do_foo_stuff() + common_ending() +end + +def bar + do_bar_stuff() + common_ending() end when the new heuristic is in use. In reality, the change is to add the blank line before "def bar" and everything below, which is what the code without the new heuristic shows. Disable the heuristics by default, and resurrect the documentation for the option and the configuration variables, while clearly marking the feature as still experimental.

2016-05-31Merge branch 'sb/submodule-deinit-all' into maintLibravatar Junio C Hamano1-6/+13
Correct faulty recommendation to use "git submodule deinit ." when de-initialising all submodules, which would result in a strange error message in a pathological corner case. * sb/submodule-deinit-all: submodule deinit: require '--all' instead of '.' for all submodules

2016-05-31Documentation: bold literals in manLibravatar Erwan Mathoniere1-1/+1
Backticks are emphasized through monospaced styling in the HTML version of Git documentation. But they were left unstyled in the manual pages. To make the man pages more comfortably read, `MAN_BOLD_LITERAL` was added by 5121a6d (Documentation: option to render literal text as bold for manpages, 2009-03-27). It allowed the user to build the manpages with literals in bold style. For precaution it was not set by default back then. Since 79c461d (docs: default to more modern toolset, 2010-11-19), it is assumed ASCIIDOC 8 and at least docbook-xsl 1.73 are used, so the need for compatibility concern is much lessor now. Remove `MAN_BOLD_LITERAL`, and typeset literals as bold by default . Add `NO_MAN_BOLD_LITERAL`, a new Makefile option, disabling this feature when defined.

Find common mistakes when writing gitlink: in our documentation and drive the check from "make check-docs".
