We presently use the ".txt" extension for our AsciiDoc files. While not wrong, most editors do not associate this extension with AsciiDoc, meaning that contributors don't get automatic editor functionality that could be useful, such as syntax highlighting and prose linting. It is much more common to use the ".adoc" extension for AsciiDoc files, since this helps editors automatically detect files and also allows various forges to provide rich (HTML-like) rendering. Let's do that here, renaming all of the files and updating the includes where relevant. Adjust the various build scripts and makefiles to use the new extension as well. Note that this should not result in any user-visible changes to the documentation. Signed-off-by: brian m. carlson <sandals@crustytoothpaste.net> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

This is adapted from Linux's suggestion in its CodingStyle document:
|
|
|
|
- To follow the rules in CodingGuidelines, it's useful to put the following in
|
|
GIT_CHECKOUT/.dir-locals.el, assuming you use cperl-mode:
|
|
----
|
|
;; note the first part is useful for C editing, too
|
|
((nil . ((indent-tabs-mode . t)
|
|
(tab-width . 8)
|
|
(fill-column . 80)))
|
|
(cperl-mode . ((cperl-indent-level . 8)
|
|
(cperl-extra-newline-before-brace . nil)
|
|
(cperl-merge-trailing-else . t))))
|
|
----
|
|
|
|
For a more complete setup, since Git's codebase uses a coding style
|
|
similar to the Linux kernel's style, tips given in Linux's CodingStyle
|
|
document can be applied here too.
