doc: convert \--option to --option

2015-05-13T05:14:46Z

Older versions of AsciiDoc would convert the "--" in "--option" into an emdash. According to 565e135 (Documentation: quote double-dash for AsciiDoc, 2011-06-29), this is fixed in AsciiDoc 8.3.0. According to bf17126, we don't support anything older than 8.4.1 anyway, so we no longer need to worry about quoting. Even though this does not change the output at all, there are a few good reasons to drop the quoting: 1. It makes the source prettier to read. 2. We don't quote consistently, which may be confusing when reading the source. 3. Asciidoctor does not like the quoting, and renders a literal backslash.

doc: fix unquoted use of "{type}"

2015-05-13T05:13:40Z

Curly braces open an "attribute" in AsciiDoc; if there's no such attribute, strange things may happen. In this case, the unquoted "{type}" causes AsciiDoc to omit an entire line of text from the output. We can fix it by putting the whole phrase inside literal backticks (which also lets us get rid of ugly backslash escaping). Signed-off-by: Jeff King Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano

In addition to fixing trivial and obvious typos, be careful about the following points: - Spell ASCII, URL and CRC in ALL CAPS; - Spell Linux as Capitalized; - Do not omit periods in "i.e." and "e.g.". Signed-off-by: Thomas Ackermann Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano

The caret (^) is used as a markup symbol in AsciiDoc. Due to the inability of AsciiDoc to parse a line containing an unmatched caret, it omitted the line from the output, resulting in the man page missing the end of a sentence. Escape this caret so that the man page ends up with the complete text. Signed-off-by: brian m. carlson Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano

rev-parse: add --shared-index-path to get shared index path

2014-06-13T18:49:41Z

Normally scripts do not have to be aware about split indexes because all shared indexes are in $GIT_DIR. A simple "mv $tmp_index $GIT_DIR/somewhere" is enough. Scripts that generate temporary indexes and move them across repos must be aware about split index and copy the shared file as well. This option enables that.
