[Proposed] Externalize man/html ref for quick-install-man and quick-install-html

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

 



I am proposing the following trivial change to allow the external
specification of the reference used for quick-install-man. The justification
is that I cannot have my production team modifying scripts when non-master
versions of git are installed in production (that violates so many rules
that I would have trouble enumerating). This does add any requirements for
changes to the automation for building either git-manpages or  git-htmldocs.
What it does is allow the top level make to pass GIT_MAN_REF down to the
underlying shell script with a default of master if unspecific. Where I am
uncertain is what else would be required for this change (documentation,
unit tests).

I humbly submit this for consideration.
Sincerely,
Randall
