This patch series aims to make the documentation fully compliant to the
CodingGuidelines regarding monospace font. After it, new contributors
who just want to change a little portion of the documention could just
look around how it has been done without being confused by the
inconsistency between the documentation and the CodingGuidelines.
Concretely: unquoted, single-quoted or double-quoted entities detailed
below in the summary are wrapped or converted in backticks.
Except some easy cases, the methodology consists of using simple regex
to find relevant files, then interactively substitute targeted entities
with progressively smarter regex to exclude false positives. As the
review process could be very tedious, I have been very cautious and have
reviewed myself a couple of times every changes. Consequently, mistakes,
if there are any, are not due to the regex, but my personal
misinterpretation of the context.
Below is some changes I plan to make in v2 which request
comments/approvals of the community.
* Placeholders and option values should be in italic. (Cf. man man)
- e.g. `--date`='<format>', `--notes`[='<ref>'], `branch.`'<name>'`.remote`
- e.g. `--date`='rfc2822'
- Compare gcc and git-add
- man gcc vs. man git-add
- https://linux.die.net/man/1/gcc vs. https://linux.die.net/man/1/git-add
* The Synopsis section should be formatted based on the current
CodingGuidelines plus the above suggestion. IOW, for instance, options should
be wrapped in backticks. Again, to have an idea, compare gcc and git-add.
Best,
Firmin
