[PATCH] Documentation: convert "glossary" and "core-tutorial" to man pages

[PATCH] Documentation: convert "glossary" and "core-tutorial" to man pages

[Christian Couder]

This patch renames the following documents and at the same time converts
them to the man format:

core-tutorial.txt -> gitcore-tutorial.txt
glossary.txt      -> gitglossary.txt

But as the glossary is included in the user manual and as the new
gitglossary man page cannot be included as a whole in the user manual,
the actual glossary content is now in its own "glossary-content.txt"
new file. And this file is included by both the user manual and the
gitglossary man page.

Other documents that reference the above ones are changed accordingly
and sometimes improved a little too.

I like this, although I think that perhaps git-core-tutorial.txt would
be a better filename.

Another solution would be to use conditionals.  I'm not sure which
one is better; I guess the include one...

I would change it to just "git-tutorial".

Not possible.  There are two other git tutorials (I think they are
being slowly into "Git User's Manual", user-manual.txt), and this
is core git/plumbing tutorial.  Perhaps git-plumbing-tutorial.txt,
if at that...

BTW. what I'd like to see is to have "Git from bottom up" incorporated
(added to) core-tutorial...

[PATCH] Documentation: convert "glossary" and "core-tutorial" to man pages

[Christian Couder]

This patch renames the following documents and at the same time converts
them to the man format:

core-tutorial.txt -> gitcore-tutorial.txt
glossary.txt      -> gitglossary.txt

But as the glossary is included in the user manual and as the new
gitglossary man page cannot be included as a whole in the user manual,
the actual glossary content is now in its own "glossary-content.txt"
new file. And this file is included by both the user manual and the
gitglossary man page.

Other documents that reference the above ones are changed accordingly
and sometimes improved a little too.

Thanks for letting me know --- I think you spotted a bug in dodoc.sh
script on 'todo' branch.  Unfortunately I won't have time to look into it
right now...
