This moves the git manpage to man7, since "git" isn't a direct command
per se. It also does two other things:
* Sort of works around the asciidoc 6.0.3 bug where the manpages all
get called "git.1". It just renames them to what they should have
been called.
* Fixes a cut-n-paste bug in git-diff-helper.txt that was making
asciidoc choke.

|
|
|
|
|
|
SYNOPSIS
|
|
--------
|
|
'git-diff-helper' [-z] [-R] [-M]
|
|
|
|
DESCRIPTION
|
|
-----------
|
|
Reads output from "git-diff-cache", "git-diff-tree" and "git-diff-files" and
|
|
generates patch format output.
|
|
|
|
OPTIONS
|
|
-------
|
|
-z::
|
|
\0 line termination on input
|
|
|
|
-R::
|
|
Output diff in reverse. This is useful for displaying output from
|
|
"git-diff-cache" which always compares tree with cache or working
|
|
file. E.g.
|
|
|
|
git-diff-cache <tree> | git-diff-helper -R file.c
|
|
|
|
would show a diff to bring the working file back to what
|
|
is in the <tree>.
|
|
|
|
-M::
|
|
Detect renames.
