Previously, the --type=<X> argument to 'git config list' was ignored and
did nothing. Now, we add the use of format_config() to the
show_all_config() function so each key-value pair is attempted to be
parsed. This is our first use of the 'gently' parameter with a nonzero
value.
When listing multiple values, our initial settings for the output format
is different. Add a new init helper to specify the fact that keys should
be shown and also add the default delimiters as they were unset in some
cases.
Our intention is that if there is an error in parsing, then the row is
not output. This is necessary to avoid the caller needing to build their
own validator to understand the difference between valid, canonicalized
types and other raw string values. The raw values will always be
available to the user if they do not specify the --type=<X> option.
The current behavior is more complicated, including error messages on
bad parsing or potentially complete failure of the command. We add
tests at this point that demonstrate the current behavior so we can
witness the fix in future changes that parse these values quietly and
gently.
This is a change in behavior! We are starting to respect an option that
was previously ignored, leading to potential user confusion. This is
probably still a good option, since the --type argument did not change
behavior at all previously, so users can get the behavior they expect by
removing the --type argument or adding the --no-type argument.
t1300-config.sh is updated with the current behavior of this formatting
logic to justify the upcoming refactoring of format_config() that will
incrementally fix some of these cases to be more user-friendly.

* ps/config-doc-get-urlmatch-fix:
Documentation/config: fix replacement for --get-urlmatch
|
|
The documentation claims that --get-urlmatch is replaced by
git config get --all --show-names --url=<URL> <name>
However, --url cannot be combined with --all, and this command
fails in practice.
Update the replacement to use only --url, which matches the
actual behavior of --get-urlmatch.

Doc mark-up fixes.
* kh/doc-continued-paragraph-fix:
doc: fix accidental literal blocks
|
|
Make sure that normal paragraphs in most user-facing docs[1] don’t
use literal blocks. This can easily happen if you try to maintain
indentation in order to continue a block; that might work in
e.g. Markdown variants, but not in AsciiDoc.
The fixes are straightforward, i.e. just deindent the block and maybe
add line continuations. The only exception is git-sparse-checkout(1)
where we also replace indentation used for *intended* literal blocks
with `----`.

For better searchability, this commit adds a check to ensure that parameters
expressed in the form of `--[no-]parameter` are not used in the
documentation. In the place of such parameters, the documentation should
list two separate parameters: `--parameter` and `--no-parameter`.

This option was introduced in a series of commits from fe3ccc7aab (Merge
branch 'ps/config-subcommands', 2024-05-15) and deprecated
`value-pattern`. But `value-pattern` is still used throughout the doc.
The deprecated modes have been quarantined in the “Deprecated Modes”
section. So let’s only use `--value=<pattern>` in the rest of the doc.

These options were introduced in a series of commits from
fe3ccc7aab (Merge branch 'ps/config-subcommands', 2024-05-15).[1]
But they were not documented here.
Document this option and the negated form according to the current
convention.[2]

This option was introduced in a series of commits from fe3ccc7aab (Merge
branch 'ps/config-subcommands', 2024-05-15). But two styles were used
for the value provided to the option:
1. Synopsis: `--value=<value>`
2. Deprecated Modes: `--value=<pattern>`
(2) is also used in the synopsis on the command.
Use (2) consistently throughout since it’s a pattern in the general
case (`value` sounds more generic).

These options were introduced in 4e513890008 (builtin/config:

Use the description from the source code.
Document this option and the negated form according to the current
convention.[1]
`--show-names` is also the default when `--get-regexp` is given. But
don’t mention it here since all the deprecated modes are quarantined in
the “Deprecated Modes” section.

Doc updates.
* jc/doc-boolean-synonyms:
doc: centrally document various ways tospell `true` and `false`

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.
