2016-11-11doc: fix location of 'info/' with $GIT_COMMON_DIRPatrick Steinhardt
With the introduction of the $GIT_COMMON_DIR variable, the repository layout manual was changed to reflect the location for many files in case the variable is set. While adding the new locations, one typo snuck in regarding the location of the 'info/' folder, which is falsely claimed to reside at "$GIT_COMMON_DIR/index". Fix the typo to point to "$GIT_COMMON_DIR/info/" instead. Signed-off-by: Patrick Steinhardt <ps@pks.im> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2016-10-30doc: fix missing "::" in config listJeff King

2016-10-24doc: fix the 'revert a faulty merge' ASCII art tab spacingPhilip Oakley
The asciidoctor doc-tool stack does not always respect the 'tab = 8 spaces' rule expectation, particularly for the Git-for-Windows generated html pages. This follows on from the 'doc: fix merge-base ASCII art tab spacing' fix. Use just spaces within the block of the ascii art. All other *.txt ascii art containing three dashes has been checked. Asciidoctor correctly formats the other art blocks that do contain tabs. Signed-off-by: Philip Oakley <philipoakley@iee.org Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

2016-10-11documentation: improve submodule.<name>.{url, path} descriptionStefan Beller
Unlike the url variable a user cannot override the the path variable, as it is part of the content together with the gitlink at the given path. To avoid confusion do not mention the .path variable in the config section and rely on the documentation provided in gitmodules[5]. Enhance the description of submodule.<name>.url and mention its two use cases separately. Signed-off-by: Stefan Beller <sbeller@google.com> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2016-10-05git-commit.txt: clarify --patch mode with pathspecDuy Nguyen
How pathspec is used, with and without --interactive/--patch, is different. But this is not clear from the document. These changes hint the user to keep reading (to option #5) instead of stopping at #2 and assuming --patch/--interactive behaves the same way. And since all the options listed here always mention how the index is involved (or not) in the final commit, add that bit for #5 as well. This "on top of the index" is implied when you head over git-add(1), but if you just go straight to the "Interactive mode" and not read what git-add is for, you may miss it.

2016-09-29Merge branch 'nd/checkout-disambiguation' into maintJunio C Hamano
"git checkout <word>" does not follow the usual disambiguation rules when the <word> can be both a rev and a path, to allow checking out a branch 'foo' in a project that happens to have a file 'foo' in the working tree without having to disambiguate. This was poorly documented and the check was incorrect when the command was run from a subdirectory. * nd/checkout-disambiguation: checkout: fix ambiguity check in subdir checkout.txt: document a common case that ignores ambiguation rules checkout: add some spaces between code and comment
