* Documentation: the name of the system is 'Git', not 'git'Thomas Ackermann2013-02-011-1/+1

* 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 $PATH.
* Allow push and fetch urls to be differentMichael J Gruber2009-06-091-0/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | This introduces a config setting remote.$remotename.pushurl which is used for pushes only. If absent remote.$remotename.url is used for pushes and fetches as before. This is useful, for example, in order to do passwordless fetches (remote update) over the git transport but pushes over ssh.

* git push: Interpret $GIT_DIR/branches in a Cogito compatible wayMartin Koegler2008-11-111-5/+14
| | | | | | | | | | | | Current git versions ignore everything after # (called <head> in the following) when pushing. Older versions (before cf818348f1ab57), interpret #<head> as part of the URL, which make git bail out. As branches origin from Cogito, it is the best to correct this by using the behaviour of cg-push, that is to push HEAD to remote refs/heads/<head>.

* manpages: italicize git command names (which were in teletype font)Jonathan Nieder2008-07-051-2/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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 .

* Clarify description of <repository> argument to pull/fetch for naming remotes.John J. Franey2008-05-311-33/+60
| | | | | | | | | | Alter the description of <repository> in OPTIONS section to explicitly state that a 'remote name' is accepted. Rewrite REMOTES section to more directly identify the different kinds of remote-name permitted. Signed-off-by: John J. Franey <jjfraney@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
* Add urls.txt to git-clone man pageAndrew Ruder2007-07-051-0/+55
Since git-clone is one of the many commands taking URLs to remote repositories as an argument, it should include the URL-types list from urls.txt. Split up urls.txt into urls.txt and urls-remotes.txt. The latter should be used by anything besides git-clone where a discussion of using .git/config and .git/remotes/ to name URLs just doesn't make as much sense.
