Documentation: spell 'git cmd' without dash throughout

2010-01-10T12:01:28Z

The documentation was quite inconsistent when spelling 'git cmd' if it only refers to the program, not to some specific invocation syntax: both 'git-cmd' and 'git cmd' spellings exist. The current trend goes towards dashless forms, and there is precedent in 647ac70 (git-svn.txt: stop using dash-form of commands., 2009-07-07) to actively eliminate the dashed variants. Replace 'git-cmd' with 'git cmd' throughout, except where git-shell, git-cvsserver, git-upload-pack, git-receive-pack, and git-upload-archive are concerned, because those really live in the $PATH.

Makes some cleanup/review in gittutorial

2009-06-30T18:17:55Z

There are some different but little cleanup changes to fix some missing quotes, to fix what seemed to be an unended sentence, to reident a little paragraph with too large a sentence and fix a branch name that was referred to twice later by another name.

Documentation: refer to gitworkflows(7) from tutorial and git(1)

2009-06-06T20:30:41Z

Add references to the gitworkflows(7) manpage added in f948dd8 (Documentation: add manpage about workflows, 2008-10-19) to both gittutorial(1) and git(1), so that new users might actually discover and read it. Noticed by Randal L. Schwartz. Signed-off-by: Thomas Rast Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano

gittutorial: remove misleading note

2009-01-26T02:57:26Z

In the tutorial Alice initializes the repository, and Bob clones it. So Bob can just do a 'git pull', but Alice will need 'git pull '. The note suggested that the branch parameter is not necessary, which is no longer true these days. Signed-off-by: Miklos Vajna Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano

Use capitalized names where appropriate

The Linux kernel and Emacs are both spelled capitalized Signed-off-by: Henrik Austad Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano

Documentation: tutorial: add information about "git help" at the beginning

2008-11-17T16:21:34Z

Talking about "git help" is useful because it has a few more features (like when using it without arguments or with "-a") and it may work on non unix like platforms. Also add a few links to git-help(1) in "See also" sections. Signed-off-by: Christian Couder Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano

tutorial: gentler illustration of Alice/Bob workflow using gitk

2008-08-29T07:14:30Z

Update to gitutorial as discussedin the git mailing list: http://marc.info/?t=121969390900002&r=1&w=2 Signed-off-by: Paolo Ciarrocchi Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano

tutorial: clarify "pull" is "fetch + merge"

2008-07-15T06:35:31Z

The document says that a fetch with a configured remote stores what are fetched in the remote tracking branches "Unlike the longhand form", but there is no longhand form "fetch" demonstrated earlier. This adds a missing demonstration of the longhand form, and a new paragraph to explain why some people might want to fetch before pull. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano

tutorial: use prompt with user names in example, to clarify who is doing what

manpages: italicize gitk's name (where it was in teletype font)

2008-07-05T18:24:40Z

The name `gitk` is sometimes meant to be entered at the command prompt, but most uses are just referring to the program with that name (not the incantation to start it). Signed-off-by: Jonathan Nieder Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano
