2008-05-26Documentation: fix graph in git-rev-parse.txtLibravatar Michele Ballabio1-10/+12
Preformatted html and man pages show a mangled graph, caused by a backslash. Commit f1ec6b22a8c1ab1cca0f1875f85aea5d2434e5a6 fixed this same issue, but it seems that new versions of the Asciidoc toolchain changed their behaviour.

2008-05-25log --graph --left-right: show left/right information in place of '*'Libravatar Adam Simpkins1-1/+1
With the --graph option, the graph already outputs 'o' instead of '*' for boundary commits. Make it emit '<' or '>' when --left-right is specified. (This change also disables the '^' prefix for UNINTERESTING commits. The graph code currently doesn't print anything special for these commits, since it assumes no UNINTERESTING, non-BOUNDARY commits are displayed. This is potentially a bug if UNINTERESTING non-BOUNDARY commits can actually be displayed via some code path.)

2008-05-24diff-files: do not play --no-index gamesLibravatar Junio C Hamano1-4/+1
Being able to say "git diff A B" outside a git repository and getting a colourful version of "diff -u A B" may be nice, but such a cute hack should not give bogus results to scripts that want to give two paths, either or both of which happen to have been removed from the work tree, to "git diff-files".

2008-05-22Clarify repack -n documentationLibravatar Shawn O. Pearce1-2/+5
While repacking a local repository a coworker thought the -n option was necessary to git-repack to keep it from updating some unknown file on the central server we all share. Explaining further what the option is (not) doing helps to make it clear the option does not impact any remote repositories the user may have configured. Signed-off-by: Shawn O.

2008-05-21Documentation: Fix skipped section levelLibravatar Gustaf Hendeby1-1/+1
With xmlto 0.0.18 it seems to demand that no section levels are skipped. The commit 'implement gitcvs.usecrlfattr' (8a06a632976ead) one such skip, which here is removed by increasing the level of the offender.
