gitcli(7) recommends the *stuck form*. `--ref` is the only one which
does not use it.

46538012d94 (notes remove: --stdin reads from the standard input,
2011-05-18) added `--stdin` for the `remove` subcommand, documenting it
in the “Options” section. But `copy --stdin` was added before that, in
160baa0d9cb (notes: implement 'git notes copy --stdin', 2010-03-12).
Treat this option equally between the two subcommands:
• remove: mention `--stdin` on the subcommand as well, like for `copy`
• copy: mention it as well under the option documentation

Unlike `remove --stdin`, this option cannot be combined with object
names given via the command line.

Clearly state when which of the regular and negated form of the
option take effect.[1]
Also mention the subtle behavior that occurs when you mix options like
`-m` and `-C`, including a note that it might be fixed in the future.
The topic was brought up on v8 of the `--separator` series.[2][3]

Cleaning up whitespace in metadata is typical porcelain behavior and
this default does not need to be pointed out.[1] Only speak up when
the default `--stripspace` is not used.
Also remove all misleading mentions of comment lines in the process;
see the previous commit.
Also remove the period that trails the parenthetical here.
† 1: See `-F` in git-commit(1) which has nothing to say about whitespace
cleanup. The cleanup discussion is on `--cleanup`.

Document this option by copying the bullet list from git-stripspace(1).
A bullet list is cleaner when there are this many points to consider.
We also get a more standardized description of the multiple-blank-lines
behavior. Compare the repeating (git-notes(1)):
empty lines other than a single line between paragraphs
With (git-stripspace(1)):
multiple consecutive empty lines
And:
leading [...] whitespace
With:
empty lines from the beginning
Leading whitespace in the form of spaces (indentation) are not removed.
However, empty lines at the start of the message are removed.
Note that we drop the mentions of comment line handling because they are
wrong; this option does not control how lines which can be recognized as
comment lines are handled. Only interactivity controls that:
• Comment lines are stripped after editing interactively
• Lines which could be recognized as comment lines are left alone when
the message is given non-interactively
So it is misleading to document the comment line behavior on
this option.
Further, the text is wrong:
Lines starting with `#` will be stripped out in non-editor cases
like `-m`, [...]
Comment lines are still indirectly discussed on other options. We will
deal with them in the next commit.

Split these out so that they are easier to search for.[1]

All the documentation .txt files have been renamed to .adoc to help
content aware editors.
* bc/doc-adoc-not-txt:
Remove obsolete ".txt" extensions for AsciiDoc files
doc: use .adoc extension for AsciiDoc files
gitattributes: mark AsciiDoc files as LF-only
editorconfig: add .adoc extension
doc: update gitignore for .adoc extension
|
|
We presently use the ".txt" extension for our AsciiDoc files. While not
wrong, most editors do not associate this extension with AsciiDoc,
meaning that contributors don't get automatic editor functionality that
could be useful, such as syntax highlighting and prose linting.
It is much more common to use the ".adoc" extension for AsciiDoc files,
since this helps editors automatically detect files and also allows
various forges to provide rich (HTML-like) rendering. Let's do that
here, renaming all of the files and updating the includes where
relevant. Adjust the various build scripts and makefiles to use the new
extension as well.
Note that this should not result in any user-visible changes to the
documentation.
