[PATCH 0/2] check-docs: fix 'diagnose' and 'version'

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

 



While locally verifying an unrelated documentation change, I noticed that
the 'check-docs' target displayed two warnings on the 'master' branch:

no link: git-diagnose
removed but documented: git-version


The first message was due to the introduction of 'git diagnose' [1] not
including a corresponding update to 'command-list.txt'; the latter was due
to 'git-version' not being built as a standalone builtin executable. This
series corrects both, adding 'git-diagnose' and 'git-version' as
"ancilliaryinterrogators" to 'command-list.txt' and building a 'git-version'
executable.

A possible future improvement to avoid this sort of thing could be to have
'check-docs' exit with an error if it encounters any issues (rather than
printing a warning that's easily lost in build logs). For now, though, this
series is restricted to fixing what's currently broken for ease of review
and minimal risk.

Maintainer's note: if this would be too much of a disruption to include in
v2.38 last-minute, I'm happy deferring it to the next release cycle.
Alternatively, the series could be split, aiming to review & merge the first
patch in this release cycle (since the 'git diagnose' error was introduced
in this version) and leave the second the next cycle.

Thanks!
