This patch puts the usage info strings that were not already in docopt- like format into docopt-like format, which will be a litle easier for end users and a lot easier for translators. Changes include: - Placing angle brackets around fill-in-the-blank parameters - Putting dashes in multiword parameter names - Adding spaces to [-f|--foobar] to make [-f | --foobar] - Replacing <foobar>* with [<foobar>...] Signed-off-by: Alex Henrie <redacted> --- Documentation/CodingGuidelines | 8 ++++++-- advice.c | 2 +- archive.c | 4 ++-- ... git.c | 2 +- 64 files changed, 109 insertions(+), 105 deletions(-)
A patch that affects this many files is bound to interfere with a few topics already in flight, but after applying it on top of 2.3-rc0 and then merging the result to 'pu', the textual conflicts are still manageable. I eyeballed it briefly and saw nothing glaringly wrong. Let's give others some time to glance it over. Thanks (and thanks to those who read the previous iteration).
