| * Fix unmatched emphasis tag in git-tutorialAndrew Ruder2007-04-181-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | In asciidoc 7.1.2 and prior there is no obvious way to get: 'add'ing to emphasize only the "add", instead it treats the first apostrophe as the beginning of an emphasis, and the second apostrophe as a regular apostrophe and makes the rest of the line an emphasis since there is no closing apostrophe. In the newer asciidoc you can do it pretty easily with __add__ing but I'm not sure it would be best to make that a prereq for something as silly as this.

| * git-shortlog: Fix two formatting errors in asciidoc documentationFrank Lichtenheld2007-04-181-1/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | First use [verse] in the SYNOPSIS so that the line break actually shows. Secondly drop the quotes around '.mailmap' since this exposes a bug in our toolchain (didn't bother enough yet to find out wether it is asciidoc's fault or that of the XSL templates) that leads to the dot not getting escaped correctly in the roff output and thereby swallowing the line.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | git only tracks the histories of full directories, not that of individual files. Sometimes, SVN users will place[1] a regular file in the directory designated for subdirectories of branches or tags. Thanks to jrockway on #git for pointing this out.

| * | cvsserver: Document the GIT branches -> CVS modules mapping more prominentlyFrank Lichtenheld2007-04-121-0/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Add a note about the branches -> modules mapping to LIMITATIONS because I really think it should be noted there and not just at the end of the installation step-by-step HOWTO. I used "git branches" there and changed "heads" to "branches" in my section about database configuration. I'm reluctant to replace all occourences of "head" with "branch" though because you always have to say "git branch" because CVS also has the concept of branches. You can say "head" though, because there is no such concept in CVS. In all the existing occourences of head other than the one I changed I think "head" flows better in the text.
