Just went through the docs looking for anything inaccurate or that can
be improved.
In the '-h' text, in the man page synopsis, and in the man page
description: Normalize the ordering of the list of sub-commands: 'add',
'merge', 'split', 'pull', 'push'. This allows us to kinda separate the
lower-level add/merge/split from the higher-level pull/push.
'-h' text:
- correction: Indicate that split's arg is optional.
- clarity: Emphasize that 'pull' takes the 'add'/'merge' flags.
man page:
- correction: State that all subcommands take options (it seemed to
indicate that only 'split' takes any options other than '-P').
- correction: 'split' only guarantees that the results are identical if
the flags are identical.
- correction: The flag is named '--ignore-joins', not '--ignore-join'.
- completeness: Clarify that 'push' always operates on HEAD, and that
'split' operates on HEAD if no local commit is given.
- clarity: In the description, when listing commands, repeat what their
arguments are. This way the reader doesn't need to flip back and
forth between the command description and the synopsis and the full
description to understand what's being said.
- clarity: In the <variables> used to give command arguments, give
slightly longer, descriptive names. Like <local-commit> instead of
just <commit>.
- clarity: Emphasize that 'pull' takes the 'add'/'merge' flags.
- style: In the synopsis, list options before the subcommand. This
makes things line up and be much more readable when shown
non-monospace (such as in `make html`), and also more closely matches
other man pages (like `git-submodule.txt`).
- style: Use the correct syntax for indicating the options ([<options>]
instead of [OPTIONS]).
- style: In the synopsis, separate 'pull' and 'push' from the other
lower-level commands. I think this helps readability.
- style: Code-quote things in prose that seem like they should be
code-quoted, like '.gitmodules', flags, or full commands.
- style: Minor wording improvements, like more consistent mood (many
of the command descriptions start in the imperative mood and switch
to the indicative mode by the end). That sort of thing.
- style: Capitalize "ID".
- style: Remove the "This option is only valid for XXX command" remarks
from each option, and instead rely on the section headings.
- style: Since that line is getting edited anyway, switch "behaviour" to
American "behavior".
- style: Trim trailing whitespace.
`todo`:
- style: Trim trailing whitespace.
