Subject: [PATCH 6/7] Documentation: be consistent about "git-" versus "git "
Date: Mon, 30 Jun 2008 17:29:51 -0500 (CDT) [thread overview]
Message-ID: <Pine.GSO.4.62.0806301717320.7190@harper.uchicago.edu> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <Pine.GSO.4.62.0806301716150.7190@harper.uchicago.edu>
[Patch at <http://home.uchicago.edu/~jrnieder/20080701-git-doc-hyphens.txt>]
Since the git-* commands are not installed in $(bindir), using
"git-command <parameters>" in examples in the documentation is
not a good idea. On the other hand, it is nice to be able to
refer to each command using one hyphenated word. (There is no
escaping it, anyway: man page names cannot have spaces in them.)
This patch retains the dash in naming an operation, command,
program, process, or action. Complete command lines that can
be entered at a shell (i.e., without options omitted) are
made to use the dashless form.
The changes consist only of replacing some spaces with hyphens
and vice versa. After a "s/ /-/g", the unpatched and patched
versions are identical.
