2021-10-25gitweb.txt: change "folder" to "directory"Martin Ågren1-1/+1
We prefer "directory" over "folder" when discussing the file system concept. Change this instance for consistency. After this, the only hits for '\<folder\>' in Documentation/ relate to IMAP folders.

2016-06-08doc: change environment variables formatTom Russello1-2/+2
This change GIT_* variables that where in italic style to monospaced font according to the guideline. It was obtained with perl -pi -e "s/\'(GIT_.*?)\'/\`\1\`/g" *.txt One of the main purposes is to stick to the CodingGuidelines as possible so that people writting new documentation by mimicking the existing are more likely to have it right (even if they didn't read the CodingGuidelines).

2014-02-20Documentation: fix documentation AsciiDoc links for external urlsRoberto Tyley1-1/+1
Turns out that putting 'link:' before the 'http' is actually superfluous in AsciiDoc, as there's already a predefined macro to handle it. "http, https, [etc] URLs are rendered using predefined inline macros." http://www.methods.co.nz/asciidoc/userguide.html#_urls "Hypertext links to files on the local file system are specified using the link inline macro." http://www.methods.co.nz/asciidoc/userguide.html#_linking_to_local_documents Despite being superfluous, the reference implementation of AsciiDoc tolerates the extra 'link:' and silently removes it, giving a functioning link in the generated HTML. However, AsciiDoctor (the Ruby implementation of AsciiDoc used to render the http://git-scm.com/ site) does /not/ have this behaviour, and so generates broken links, as can be seen here: http://git-scm.com/docs/git-cvsimport (links to cvs2git & parsecvs) http://git-scm.com/docs/git-filter-branch (link to The BFG) It's worth noting that after this change, the html generated by 'make html' in the git project is identical, and all links still work.

2013-02-01Documentation: avoid poor-man's small caps GITThomas Ackermann1-1/+1
In the earlier days, we used to spell the name of the system as GIT, to simulate as if it were typeset with capital G and IT in small caps. Later we stopped doing so at around 1.6.5 days. Let's stop doing so throughout the documentation. The name to refer to the whole system (and the concept it embodies) is "Git"; the command end-users type is "git". And document this in the coding guideline. Signed-off-by: Thomas Ackermann <th.acker@arcor.de> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

2011-10-16gitweb: Add gitweb(1) manpage for gitweb itselfJakub Narebski1-0/+704
Most of what is in gitweb.txt it has been pulled directly from the README and INSTALL files of gitweb. Current version is somewhat based on structure of SVN::Web manpage (one of web interfaces for Subversion). gitweb.conf(5) i.e. gitweb configuration manpage now refers to appropriate sections in gitweb(1). gitweb/README now refers to gitweb/INSTALL and gitweb(1) manpage. gitweb/INSTALL now refers to gitweb.conf(5) and gitweb(1).
