* Documentation: spell 'git cmd' without dash throughoutThomas Rast2010-01-101-2/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The documentation was quite inconsistent when spelling 'git cmd' if it only refers to the program, not to some specific invocation syntax: both 'git-cmd' and 'git cmd' spellings exist. The current trend goes towards dashless forms, and there is precedent in 647ac70 (git-svn.txt: stop using dash-form of commands., 2009-07-07) to actively eliminate the dashed variants. Replace 'git-cmd' with 'git cmd' throughout, except where git-shell, git-cvsserver, git-upload-pack, git-receive-pack, and git-upload-archive are concerned, because those really live in the $PATH.
* Fix example in git-name-rev documentationJunio C Hamano2008-08-301-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | Since 59d3f54 (name-rev: avoid "^0" when unneeded, 2007-02-20), name-rev stopped showing an unnecessary "^0" to dereference a tag down to a commit. The patch should have made a matching update to the documentation, but we forgot. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

* | manpages: italicize git command names (which were in teletype font)Jonathan Nieder2008-07-051-3/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The names of git commands are not meant to be entered at the commandline; they are just names. So we render them in italics, as is usual for command names in manpages. Using doit () { perl -e 'for (<>) { s/\`(git-[^\`.]*)\`/'\''\1'\''/g; print }' } for i in git*.txt config.txt diff*.txt blame*.txt fetch*.txt i18n.txt \ merge*.txt pretty*.txt pull*.txt rev*.txt urls*.txt do doit <"$i" >"$i+" && mv "$i+" "$i" done git diff .

* | Documentation formatting and cleanupJonathan Nieder2008-07-011-3/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Following what appears to be the predominant style, format names of commands and commandlines both as `teletype text`. While we're at it, add articles ("a" and "the") in some places, italicize the name of the command in the manual page synopsis line, and add a comma or two where it seems appropriate.

* | Documentation: be consistent about "git-" versus "git "Jonathan Nieder2008-07-011-1/+1
|/ | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Since the git-* commands are not installed in $(bindir), using "git-command <parameters>" in examples in the documentation is not a good idea. On the other hand, it is nice to be able to refer to each command using one hyphenated word. (There is no escaping it, anyway: man page names cannot have spaces in them.) This patch retains the dash in naming an operation, command, program, process, or action. Complete command lines that can be entered at a shell (i.e., without options omitted) are made to use the dashless form. The changes consist only of replacing some spaces with hyphens and vice versa. After a "s/ /-/g", the unpatched and patched versions are identical. Signed-off-by: Jonathan Nieder <jrnieder@uchicago.edu> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

| | | | | | | | | This uses "git-apply --whitespace=strip" to fix whitespace errors that have crept in to our source files over time. There are a few files that need to have trailing whitespaces (most notably, test vectors). The results still passes the test, and build result in Documentation/ area is unchanged.

* Teach git-describe how to run name-revShawn O. Pearce2007-05-211-0/+7
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Often users want to know not which tagged version a commit came after, but which tagged version a commit is contained within. This latter task is the job of git-name-rev, but most users are looking to git-describe to do the job. Junio suggested we make `git describe --contains` run the correct tool, `git name-rev`, and that's exactly what we do here. The output of name-rev was adjusted slightly through the new --name-only option, allowing describe to execv into name-rev and maintain its current output format. Signed-off-by: Shawn O.

* Add git-name-revJohannes Schindelin2005-10-261-0/+66
git-name-rev tries to find nice symbolic names for commits. It does so by walking the commits from the refs. When the symbolic name is ambiguous, the following heuristic is applied: Try to avoid too many ~'s, and if two ambiguous names have the same count of ~'s, take the one whose last number is smaller. With "--tags", the names are derived only from tags. With "--stdin", the stdin is parsed, and after every sha1 for which a name could be found, the name is appended. (Try "git log | git name-rev --stdin".) Signed-off-by: Johannes Schindelin <Johannes.Schindelin@gmx.de> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>
