Subject: [PATCH 3/5] doc: convert git-rm to new documentation format
Date: Sun, 30 Mar 2025 17:16:02 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <41a01969d9394ba4997e729d58c5b566bab315b7.1743354964.git.gitgitgadget@gmail.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <pull.1896.git.1743354964.gitgitgadget@gmail.com>

From: =?UTF-8?q?Jean-No=C3=ABl=20Avila?= <jn.avila@free.fr>

- Switch the synopsis to a synopsis block which will automatically
  format placeholders in italics and keywords in monospace
- Use _<placeholder>_ instead of <placeholder> in the description
- Use `backticks` for keywords and more complex option
descriptions. The new rendering engine will apply synopsis rules to
these spans.

         Allow recursive removal when a leading directory name is
         given.

 	This option can be used to separate command-line options from

 	Exit with a zero status even if no files matched.

 	Allow updating index entries outside of the sparse-checkout cone.
