2025-01-21doc: use .adoc extension for AsciiDoc filesbrian m. carlson
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>

2018-06-18RelNotes 2.18: minor fix to entry about dynamically loading completionsSZEDER Gábor
It was not "newer versions of bash" but newer versions of bash-completion that made commit 085e2ee0e6 (completion: load completion file for external subcommand, 2018-04-29) both necessary and possible. Update the corresponding RelNotes entry accordingly. Signed-off-by: SZEDER Gábor <szeder.dev@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

2018-06-13RelNotes 2.18: clarify where directory rename detection appliesElijah Newren
Mention that this feature works with some commands (merge and cherry-pick, implying that it also works with commands that build on these like rebase -m and rebase -i). Explicitly mentioning two commands hopefully implies that it may not always work with other commands (am, and rebase without flags that imply either -m or -i). Also, since the directory rename detection from this cycle was specifically added in merge-recursive and not diffcore-rename, remove the 'in "diff" family" phrase from the note. (Folks have requested in the past that `git diff` detect directory renames and somehow simplify its output, so it may be helpful to avoid implying that diff has any new capability here.)

2018-06-01RelNotes: remove duplicate release noteElijah Newren
In the 2.18 cycle, directory rename detection was merged, then reverted, then reworked in such a way to fix another prominent bug in addition to the original problem causing it to be reverted. When the reworked series was merged, we ended up with two nearly duplicate release notes. Remove the second copy, but preserve the information about the extra bug fix.
