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>

NAME
|
|
----
|
|
git-web--browse - Git helper script to launch a web browser
|
|
|
|
SYNOPSIS
|
|
--------
|
|
[verse]
|
|
'git web{litdd}browse' [<options>] (<URL>|<file>)...
|
|
|
|
DESCRIPTION
|
|
-----------
|
|
|
|
This script tries, as much as possible, to display the URLs and FILEs
|
|
that are passed as arguments, as HTML pages in new tabs on an already
|
|
opened web browser.
|
|
|
|
The following browsers (or commands) are currently supported:
|
|
|
|
* firefox (this is the default under X Window when not using KDE)
|
|
* iceweasel
|
|
* seamonkey
|
|
* iceape
|
|
* chromium (also supported as chromium-browser)
|
|
* google-chrome (also supported as chrome)
|
|
* konqueror (this is the default under KDE, see 'Note about konqueror' below)
|
|
* opera
|
|
* w3m (this is the default outside graphical environments)
|
|
* elinks
|
|
* links
|
|
* lynx
|
|
* dillo
|
|
* open (this is the default under Mac OS X GUI)
|
|
* start (this is the default under MinGW)
|
|
* cygstart (this is the default under Cygwin)
|
|
* xdg-open
|
|
|
|
Custom commands may also be specified.
|
|
|
|
OPTIONS
|
|
-------
|
|
-b <browser>::
|
|
--browser=<browser>::
|
|
Use the specified browser. It must be in the list of supported
|
|
browsers.
|
|
|
|
-t <browser>::
|
|
--tool=<browser>::
|
|
Same as above.
|
|
|
|
-c <conf.var>::
|
|
--config=<conf.var>::
|
|
CONF.VAR is looked up in the Git config files. If it's set,
|
|
then its value specifies the browser that should be used.
|
|
|
|
CONFIGURATION VARIABLES
|
|
-----------------------
|
|
|
|
CONF.VAR (from -c option) and web.browser
|
|
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
|
|
|
|
The web browser can be specified using a configuration variable passed
|
|
with the -c (or --config) command-line option, or the `web.browser`
|
|
configuration variable if the former is not used.
|
|
|
|
browser.<tool>.path
|
|
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
|
|
|
|
You can explicitly provide a full path to your preferred browser by
|
|
setting the configuration variable `browser.<tool>.path`. For example,
|
|
you can configure the absolute path to firefox by setting
|
|
'browser.firefox.path'. Otherwise, 'git web{litdd}browse' assumes the tool
|
|
is available in PATH.
|
|
|
|
browser.<tool>.cmd
|
|
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
|
|
|
|
When the browser, specified by options or configuration variables, is
|
|
not among the supported ones, then the corresponding
|
|
`browser.<tool>.cmd` configuration variable will be looked up. If this
|
|
variable exists then 'git web{litdd}browse' will treat the specified tool
|
|
as a custom command and will use a shell eval to run the command with
|
|
the URLs passed as arguments.
|
|
|
|
NOTE ABOUT KONQUEROR
|
|
--------------------
|
|
|
|
When 'konqueror' is specified by a command-line option or a
|
|
configuration variable, we launch 'kfmclient' to try to open the HTML
|
|
man page on an already opened konqueror in a new tab if possible.
|
|
|
|
For consistency, we also try such a trick if 'browser.konqueror.path' is
|
|
set to something like `A_PATH_TO/konqueror`. That means we will try to
|
|
launch `A_PATH_TO/kfmclient` instead.
|
|
|
|
If you really want to use 'konqueror', then you can use something like
|
|
the following:
|
|
|
|
------------------------------------------------
|
|
[web]
|
|
browser = konq
|
|
|
|
[browser "konq"]
|
|
cmd = A_PATH_TO/konqueror
|
|
------------------------------------------------
|
|
|
|
Note about git-config --global
|
|
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
|
|
|
|
Note that these configuration variables should probably be set using
|
|
the `--global` flag, for example like this:
|
|
|
|
------------------------------------------------
|
|
$ git config --global web.browser firefox
|
|
------------------------------------------------
|
|
|
|
as they are probably more user specific than repository specific.
