Well, I don't always word-wrap paras when re-editing them, and several
|
||
|
|
people have had their hands on the man page and may have different wrapping
|
||
|
|
settings.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
My suggestion would be, if you need to re-wrap, or generally make
|
||
|
|
whitespace changes, do it in a separate commit from other changes.
|
||
|
|
Similarly, make spelling corrections in a separate commit from any
|
||
|
|
substance changes.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Note that you can push man page commits directly to this site via git://
|
||
|
|
protocol, so it's not going to use my time as long as there's a reasonable
|
||
|
|
commit message.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Use backticks around any command name or fragment of a command line.
|
||
|
|
Use quotes around program output, or other values that are not command
|
||
|
|
names or switch names.
