The 'git gui' has a number of options that can be specified using the options dialog. Sometimes it is convenient to be able to specify these from the command line, therefor document these options. Signed-off-by: Gustaf Hendeby <redacted> Acked-by: Shawn O. Pearce <redacted> --- This patch differs from the previous one in two ways: 1. Since Shawn has fixed the problem with the spell checking already (thanks!) and it will make its way into git soon, I removed the comment about how gui.spellingdictionary="no can used to have git gui start with older versions of aspell. I think it just confuse people if it doesn't apply any more. 2. Some of the language looked a bit strange when I read it through this time, so I changed some wordings. A pair of native English eyes would probably not be a bad idea. /Gustaf Documentation/config.txt | 30 ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ 1 files changed, 30 insertions(+), 0 deletions(-)
