[PATCH v2 0/1] FAQ for common user questions

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

 



Git is an enormously flexible and powerful piece of software, but many
people find it confusing and hard to use.  This patch introduces a FAQ
to address some common user questions and hopefully make it easier.

I know there are some plans to add additional entries to this.  I
propose we tack them on as additional patches, and if I need to reroll
this again, I can pick them up as part of the series, unless someone
has strong opinions about doing things differently.

Changes from v1:
* Fix various indentation issues.
* Avoid using "some people", except to state that "some people find `vi`
  difficult to use", preferring to use language addressing
  misconceptions more directly.
* Add "erroneously" to "This is often suggested" to avoid users
  accidentally doing what we recommend against.
* Attempt to come up with a better way to describe a personal name,
  using Junio as an example.
