Subject: [PATCH] Document core.excludesfile for git-add
Date: Wed, 16 May 2007 23:08:50 -0600	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1179378530822-git-send-email-michael@ndrix.org> (raw)

During the discussion of core.excludesfile in the user-manual, I realized
that the configuration wasn't mentioned in the man pages.
