2009-06-13git-rerere.txt: grammatical fixups and cleanupsLibravatar Stephen Boyd1-33/+32
Rewrite the gc section using unresolved and resolved instead of "not recorded". Add plurals and missing articles. Make some sentences have consistent tense. Try and be more active by removing "that" and simplifying sentences. The terms "hand-resolve" and "hand resolve" were used, so just use "hand resolve" to be more consistent.

It's nice to know that 'it' is git-am or the subject line. Whitespace implies characters so just remove characters. Signed-off-by: Stephen Boyd <bebarino@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

2009-04-19Update git-add.txt according to the new possibilities of 'git add -p'.Libravatar Matthieu Moy1-1/+3
The text is merely cut-and-pasted from git-add--interactive.perl. The cut-and-paste also fixes a typo. Signed-off-by: Matthieu Moy <Matthieu.Moy@imag.fr> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2009-04-19git add -p: new "quit" command at the prompt.Libravatar Matthieu Moy1-0/+1
There's already 'd' to stop staging hunks in a file, but no explicit command to stop the interactive staging (for the current files and the remaining ones). Of course you can do 'd' and then ^C, but it would be more intuitive to allow 'quit' action. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

2009-04-17doc/gitattributes: clarify location of config textLibravatar Jeff King1-3/+6
The gitattributes documentation has a section on the "diff" attribute, with subsections for each of the things you might want to configure in your diff config section (external diff, hunk headers, etc). The first such subsection specifically notes that the definition of the diff driver should go into $GIT_DIR/config, but subsequent sections do not. This location is implied if you are reading the documentation sequentially, but it is not uncommon for a new user to jump to (or be referred to) a specific section. For a new user who does not know git well enough to recognize the config syntax, it is not clear that those directives don't also go into the gitattributes file. This patch just mentions the config file in each subsection, similar to the way it is mentioned in the first.
