Subject: [PATCH 2/5] for-each-ref: fix documentation argument ordering
Date: Thu, 24 Jul 2025 10:14:43 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20250724-kn-small-cleanups-v1-2-0c70f591de3e@gmail.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20250724-kn-small-cleanups-v1-0-0c70f591de3e@gmail.com>
Improve the 'git-for-each-ref(1)' documentation with two corrections:
1. Add parentheses around `--exclude=<pattern>` to indicate this option
can be repeated as a complete unit.
2. Move `--stdin | <pattern> ...` to the end, after all flags, since
`<pattern>` is a positional argument that should appear last in the
argument list.
