2011-05-30Documentation: do not misinterpret refspecs as bold textLibravatar Jonathan Nieder1-3/+3
In v1.7.3.3~2 (Documentation: do not misinterpret pull refspec as bold text, 2010-12-03) many uses of asterisks in expressions like "refs/heads/*:refs/svn/origin/branches/*" were escaped as {asterisk} to avoid being treated as delimiters for bold text, but these two were missed.

2011-05-26docs: fix some antique example outputLibravatar Jeff King2-4/+4
These diff-index and diff-tree sample outputs date back to the first month of git's existence. The output format has changed slightly since then, so let's have it match the current output. Signed-off-by: Jeff King <peff@peff.net> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2011-05-26docs: make sure literal "->" isn't converted to arrowLibravatar Jeff King2-5/+5
Recent versions of asciidoc will treat "->" as a single-glyph arrow symbol, unless it is inside a literal code block. This is a problem if we are discussing literal output and want to show the ASCII characters. Our usage falls into three categories: 1. Inside a code block. These can be left as-is. 2. Discussing literal output or code, but inside a paragraph. This patch escapes these as "\->". 3. Using the arrow as a symbolic element, such as "use the Edit->Account Settings menu". In this case, the arrow symbol is preferable, so we leave it as-is. Signed-off-by: Jeff King <peff@peff.net> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2011-05-26docs: update status --porcelain formatLibravatar Jeff King1-4/+23
The --porcelain format was originally identical to the --short format, but designed to be stable as the short format changed. Since this was written, the short format picked up a few incompatible niceties, but this description was never changed. Let's mention the differences. While we're at it, let's add some sub-section headings to make the "output" section a little easier to navigate.
