2025-01-21doc: use .adoc extension for AsciiDoc filesbrian m. carlson
We presently use the ".txt" extension for our AsciiDoc files. While not wrong, most editors do not associate this extension with AsciiDoc, meaning that contributors don't get automatic editor functionality that could be useful, such as syntax highlighting and prose linting. It is much more common to use the ".adoc" extension for AsciiDoc files, since this helps editors automatically detect files and also allows various forges to provide rich (HTML-like) rendering. Let's do that here, renaming all of the files and updating the includes where relevant. Adjust the various build scripts and makefiles to use the new extension as well. Note that this should not result in any user-visible changes to the documentation. Signed-off-by: brian m. carlson <sandals@crustytoothpaste.net> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2022-10-13doc txt & -h consistency: add missing options and labelsÆvar Arnfjörð Bjarmason
Fix various issues of SYNOPSIS and -h output syntax where: * Options such as --force were missing entirely * ...or the short option, such as -f * We said "opts" or "options", but could instead enumerate the (small) set of supported options * Options that were missing entirely (ls-remote's --sort=<key>) As we can specify "--sort" multiple times (it's backed by a string-list" it should really be "[(--sort=<key>)...]", which is what "git for-each-ref" lists it as, but let's leave that issue for a subsequent cleanup, and stop at making these consistent. Other "ref-filter.h" users share the same issue, e.g. "git-branch.txt". * For "verify-tag" and "verify-commit" we were missing the "--raw" option.

2016-06-27Merge branch 'dn/gpg-doc'Junio C Hamano
The documentation tries to consistently spell "GPG"; when referring to the specific program name, "gpg" is used. * dn/gpg-doc: Documentation: GPG capitalization
2016-06-16Documentation: GPG capitalizationDave Nicolson
When "GPG" is used in a sentence it is now consistently capitalized. When referring to the binary it is left as "gpg". Signed-off-by: David Nicolson <david.nicolson@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2015-06-22verify-commit: add option to print raw gpg status informationbrian m. carlson
verify-commit by default displays human-readable output on standard error. However, it can also be useful to get access to the raw gpg status information, which is machine-readable, allowing automated implementation of signing policy. Add a --raw option to make verify-commit produce the gpg status information on standard error instead of the human-readable format.

2014-06-23verify-commit: scriptable commit signature verificationMichael J Gruber
Commit signatures can be verified using "git show -s --show-signature" or the "%G?" pretty format and parsing the output, which is well suited for user inspection, but not for scripting. Provide a command "verify-commit" which is analogous to "verify-tag": It returns 0 for good signatures and non-zero otherwise, has the gpg output on stderr and (optionally) the commit object on stdout, sans the signature, just like "verify-tag" does.
