Change "it's" to "its" where a possessive is intended. Also add two missing "the" that were noticed by Ben Walton. Signed-off-by: David Waitzman <djw@bbn.com>
2012-03-08rerere: Document 'rerere remaining'Libravatar Phil Hord1-7/+12
This adds the 'remaining' command to the documentation of 'git rerere'. This command was added in ac49f5ca (Feb 16 2011; Martin von Zweigbergk <martin.von.zweigbergk@gmail.com>) but it was never documented. Touch up the other rerere commands to reduce noise. First noticed by Vincent van Ravesteijn. Signed-off-by: Phil Hord <phil.hord@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

2012-02-28Documentation: use {asterisk} in rev-list-options.txt when neededLibravatar Carlos Martín Nieto1-6/+6
Text between two '*' is emphasized in AsciiDoc and makes explanations in rev-list-options.txt on glob-related options very confusing, as the rendered text would be missing two asterisks and the text between them would be emphasized instead. Use '{asterisk}' where needed to make them show up as asterisks in the rendered text.

2012-01-10Documentation: rerere's rr-cache auto-creation and rerere.enabledLibravatar Junio C Hamano1-1/+2

* maint-1.7.6: Documentation: rerere.enabled is the primary way to configure rerere
2012-01-06Documentation: rerere.enabled is the primary way to configure rerereLibravatar Thomas Rast1-4/+4
The wording seems to suggest that creating the directory is needed and the setting of rerere.enabled is only for disabling the feature by setting it to 'false'. But the configuration is meant to be the primary control and setting it to 'true' will enable it; the rr-cache directory will be created as necessary and the user does not have to create it.

2012-01-03docs: describe behavior of relative submodule URLsLibravatar Jens Lehmann1-1/+6
Since the relative submodule URLs have been introduced in f31a522a2d, they do not conform to the rules for resolving relative URIs but rather to those of relative directories. Document that behavior. Signed-off-by: Jens Lehmann <Jens.Lehmann@web.de> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

92c62a3 (Porcelain scripts: Rewrite cryptic "needs update" error message, 2010-10-19) refactored git's own checking to a function in git-sh-setup.

2011-12-18advice: Document that they all default to trueLibravatar Junio C Hamano1-11/+8
By definition, the default value of "advice.*" variables must be true and they all control various additional help messages that are designed to aid new users. Setting one to false is to tell Git that the user understands the nature of the error and does not need the additional verbose help message. Also fix the asciidoc markup for linkgit:git-checkout[1] in the description of the detachedHead advice by removing an excess colon. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2011-12-16docs: brush up obsolete bits of git-fsck manpageLibravatar Jeff King1-18/+8
After the description and options, the fsck manpage contains some discussion about what it does. Over time, this discussion has become somewhat obsolete, both in content and formatting. In particular: 1. There are many options now, so starting the discussion with "It tests..." makes it unclear whether we are talking about the last option, or about the tool in general. Let's start a new "discussion" section and make our antecedent more clear. 2. It gave an example for --unreachable using for-each-ref to mention all of the heads, saying that it will do "a _lot_ of verification". This is hopelessly out-of-date, as giving no arguments will check much more (reflogs, the index, non-head refs). 3. It goes on to mention tests "to be added" (like tree object sorting). We now have these tests. Signed-off-by: Jeff King <peff@peff.net> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
