* docs: default to more modern toolsetJeff King2010-11-241-15/+8
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | When the ASCIIDOC8 and ASCIIDOC_NO_ROFF knobs were built, many people were still on asciidoc 7 and using older versions of docbook-xsl. These days, even the almost 2-year-old Debian stable needs these knobs turned. So let's turn them by default. The new knobs ASCIIDOC7 and ASCIIDOC_ROFF can be used to get the old behavior if people are on older systems.

* Documentation/Makefile: fix interrupted builds of user-manual.xmlJonathan Nieder2010-04-211-2/+6
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Unlike gcc, asciidoc does not atomically write its output file or delete it when interrupted. If it is interrupted in the middle of writing an XML file, the result will be truncated input for xsltproc.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Providing multiple targets to force a rebuild is unnecessary complication.

| * Documentation: xmlto 0.0.18 does not know --stringparamJunio C Hamano2009-12-031-0/+7
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Newer DocBook stylesheets want man.base.url.for.relative.links parameter set when formatting manpages with external references to turn them into full URLs, and leave a helpful "you should set this parameter" message in the output. Earlier we added the MAN_BASE_URL make variable to specify the value for it. When MAN_BASE_URL is not given, it ought to be safe to set the parameter to empty; it would result in an empty leading path for older stylesheets that ignore the parameter, and newer ones would produce the same "relative URL" without the message. Unfortunately, older xmlto (at least version 0.0.18 released in early 2004 that comes with RHEL/CentOS 5) does not understand the --stringparam command line option, so we cannot add the parameter definition unconditionally to the command line. Work it around by passing the parameter only when set. If you do not have a suitable URL prefix, you can pass a quoted empty string to it, like so: $ make MAN_BASE_URL='""' Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

This paper might be interesting to people who want to learn as much as possible about "git bisect" from a single document. The slides of the related presentation are available at: http://www.linux-kongress.org/2009/slides/fighting_regressions_with_git_bisect_christian_couder.pdf But the Linux Kongress people will not publish this paper online because they print the papers on their UpTimes magazine (http://www.lob.de/isbn/978-3-86541-358-1).

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The docbook/xmlto toolchain insists on quoting ' as \'. This does achieve the quoting goal, but modern 'man' implementations turn the apostrophe into a unicode "proper" apostrophe (given the right circumstances), breaking code examples in many of our manpages. Quote them as \(aq instead, which is an "apostrophe quote" as per the groff_char manpage. Unfortunately, as Anders Kaseorg kindly pointed out, this is not portable beyond groff, so we add an extra Makefile variable GNU_ROFF which you need to enable to get the new quoting.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | With this change, the "spurious .sp" suppression XSLT code is disabled by default. It can be enabled by defining DOCBOOK_SUPPRESS_SP. The "spurious .sp" XSLT fragment was used to work around a bug first released in docbook-xsl 1.69.1. Modern versions of docbook-xsl are negatively affected by the code (some empty lines are omitted from manpage output; see <http://article.gmane.org/gmane.comp.version-control.git/115302>). The key revisions in the docbook SVN repo seem to be 5144 (before docbook-xsl 1.69.1) and 6359 (before docbook-xsl 1.71.1). Testing done with asciidoc 8.3.1 and docbook-xsl 1.74.0.

The initial implementation (pre-mailing-list) of this patch included a conditional variant of the XSLT code in manpage-base.xsl and use xmlto's --stringparam option to optionally enable the functionality. It turns out that --stringparam is broken in all versions of xmlto except for the pre-release, SVN version. Since xmlto is a shell script the patch to fix it is simple enough, but I instead opted to use xmlto's "module" functionality. Testing done with asciidoc 8.3.1 and docbook-xsl 1.74.0.

Unlike the 1.72.0-specific XSLT problem, this behavior was not reverted in later releases. This patch aims to make it clear that the affected asciidoc attribute (flag) can be reasonably used with docbook-xsl versions other than 1.72.0. Also, document which make variables should be set for various versions of asciidoc and docbook-xsl. Testing done with asciidoc 8.3.1 and docbook-xsl 1.74.0.

An Info document should contain unique node names. This patch creates a simple (read: ugly) work-around by suppressing the validation of the final Info file. Jumping to nodes in the Info document still works but they are not very useful. Common man-page headings like DESCRIPTION and OPTIONS appear in the Info node list and they point to the man page where they appear first (that is git-add currently). Also, this patch adds directory-entry information for Info document to make the document appear in the top-level Info directory.

I was able to solve this problem with this patch, which adds a XSL file used specifically for DOCBOOK_XSL_172=YesPlease and where dots and backslashes are escaped properly so they won't be substituted to the wrong thing further down the "DocBook XSL pipeline". Doing the escaping in the existing callout.xsl breaks v1.70.1. Hopefully v1.73 will end this part of the manpage nightmare. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
