Oh, sorry, this was just me being incompetent. I was testing with MANSECT=git man git am and of course MANSECT=git man git broke because we are no longer looking in section "1". Setting the sections properly (by adding "git" to /etc/manpath.config, or using MANSECT=1:git) and creating a linkfarm in .../man/mangit (with am.git pointing to ../man1/git-am.1) makes both "man git" and "man git am" work fine. The changes to manpath.config make it a bit outside the scope of git's regular install, but maybe this is something distro people would want to do. -Peff -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe git" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
