Subject: Re: [PATCH 1/2] git help: group common commands by theme
Date: Fri, 01 May 2015 17:04:34 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <55439602.6000906@gmail.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <554392E2.8000206@gmail.com>

(My mistake, the patch was in 3 parts, not 4)

     generate-cmdlist.sh - Add command group information for common commands

     extract the $grp shell variable from command-list.txt (eg: 
'common-3_worktree') and add
     this value to the output:

     before/after:
     {"add", N_("Add file contents to the index")}
     {"add", N_("Add file contents to the index"), "3_worktree"}

     So that when 'git' is called, we can display common commands grouped by
     theme instead of a less useful alphabetical order.
