2018-06-01remote.txt: update documentation for 'update' commandLibravatar Duy Nguyen1-2/+2
Commit b344e1614b (git remote update: Fallback to remote if group does not exist - 2009-04-06) lets "git remote update" accept individual remotes as well. Previously this command only accepted remote groups. The commit updates the command syntax but not the actual document of this subcommand. Update it.

2018-02-22Documentation/gitsubmodules.txt: avoid non-ASCII apostrophesLibravatar Motoki Seki1-7/+7
In gitsubmodules.txt, a few non-ASCII apostrophes are used to spell possessive, e.g. "submodule's". These unfortunately are not rendered at https://git-scm.com/docs/gitsubmodules correctly by the renderer used there. Use ASCII apostrophes instead to work around the problem. It also is good to be consistent, as there are possessives spelled with ASCII apostrophes.

2018-02-16git-worktree.txt: fix indentation of example and text of 'add' commandLibravatar Eric Sunshine1-0/+1
When 4e85333197 (worktree: make add <path> <branch> dwim, 2017-11-26) added an example command in a literal code block, it neglected to insert a mandatory "+" line before the block. This omission resulted in both the literal code block and the (existing) paragraph following the block to be outdented, even though they should be indented under the 'add' sub-command along with the rest of the text pertaining to that command. Furthermore, the mandatory "+" line separating the code block from the following text got rendered as a leading character on the line ("+ If <commit-ish>...") rather than being treated as a formatting directive. Fix these problems by adding the missing "+" line before the example code block. Signed-off-by: Eric Sunshine <sunshine@sunshineco.com> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

2018-02-15Documentation/git-status: clarify status table for porcelain modeLibravatar Stefan Beller1-2/+2
It is possible to have the output ' A' from 'git status --porcelain' by adding a file using the '--intend-to-add' flag. Make this clear by adding the pattern in the table of the documentation. However the mode 'DM' (deleted in the index, modified in the working tree) is not possible in the non-merge case in which the file only shows as 'D ' (and adding it back to the worktree would show an additional line of an '??' untracked file). It is also not possible in the merge case as then the mode involves a 'U' on one side of the merge. Remove that pattern.

2018-02-02gitignore.txt: elaborate shell glob syntaxLibravatar Duy Nguyen1-6/+5
`fnmatch(3)` is a great mention if the intended audience is programmers. For normal users it's probably better to spell out what a shell glob is. This paragraph is updated to roughly tell (or remind) what the main wildcards are supposed to do. All the details are still hidden away behind the `fnmatch(3)` wall because bringing the whole specification here may be too much.

2018-01-30doc: mention 'git show' defaults to HEADLibravatar Todd Zullinger1-2/+2
When 'git show' is called without any object it defaults to HEAD. This has been true since d4ed9793fd ("Simplify common default options setup for built-in log family.", 2006-04-16). The SYNOPSIS suggests that the object argument is required. Clarify that it is not required and note the default.

2018-01-19http: support omitting data from tracesLibravatar Jonathan Tan1-0/+4
GIT_TRACE_CURL provides a way to debug what is being sent and received over HTTP, with automatic redaction of sensitive information. But it also logs data transmissions, which significantly increases the log file size, sometimes unnecessarily. Add an option "GIT_TRACE_CURL_NO_DATA" to allow the user to omit such data transmissions. Signed-off-by: Jonathan Tan <jonathantanmy@google.com> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
