This patch series is an updated version of a patch I sent this morning. The purpose of the patches is to make the absence of git- commands not so jarring while reading the manual. It does this by holding fast to a distinction between programs (like git-clone) and command lines (like "git clone <repo>"). Issues: - It is a huge patch touching most of the manpages, not made by any automated process - Sometimes it is not clear whether a mention of git-diff, say, is referring to the `git-diff` program or the command line `git diff` (without any options). So we guess. - Most non-git man pages use 'italics' for the names of programs, but I stuck to `teletype text` because that is what seems to be most common in the Git docs. If people want to change this, I can send a separate patch to that end. - There are not enough cross-references (the "see also" sections are too often absent). But at least I was able to check that patch 6/7 (which redistributes the dashes in the world) doesn't touch anything but spaces and hyphens. Hopefully that should make this easier to review. Enjoy...
