I also think this sounds sensible A hurdle is that while Unix man pages are well established and I'm not aware of a standard or convention around HTML documentation. On windows, you can install the HTML pages into /mingw64/share/doc/git-doc/ the problem is "git for windows" default installs in program files so admin rights are required. You can supply a custom path for HTML pages git -c help.htmlPath=`realpath.exe ~/doc/git/html/` help git-filter-repo so an option is for user/admins to move/copy all the help documentation to a different path. An idea is that if HTML documentation is not found at help.htmlPath to look for HTML documentation at the path of the command before failing I don't know if that's a good idea but it sounds simple On Tue, Dec 21, 2021 at 12:06 AM Junio C Hamano <gitster@xxxxxxxxx> wrote: > > "brian m. carlson" <sandals@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> writes: > > > I should point out that in most cases on Unix, it _is_ expected that you > > install your manual pages into the same place as everyone else, so in > > this case, installing the HTML documentation alongside Git's may be the > > best solution. > > Yup, that sounds like the most sensible way to do things.
