[RFC/PATCH 0/2] Improve rebase documenation

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Recent discussions have shown that rebase isn't as well understood as
as perhaps it should be for the basic user. 

Add a softer introductory paragraph to the man page description, and
in the second patch, add a second paragraph explaining the build up of
the command so that users have a historical context in which to
rationalise the command structure.

The second patch/paragraph will probably need the quoting checking as
to which are quoting the generic command and which are the same text
as a command example.

Basic wording is borrowed from on-list clarifications.
