From: Jonas Fonseca Date: Fri, 25 Aug 2006 01:07:46 +0000 (+0200) Subject: git-svn(1): improve asciidoc markup X-Git-Tag: v1.4.3-rc1~195 X-Git-Url: https://git.tokkee.org/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=0ea4d4c94b7662c9668d30d8441c1a9a3376d772;p=git.git git-svn(1): improve asciidoc markup Use list continuation to have better wrapping. This accounts for most of the changes because it reindents a lot of text without applying other changes. Use cross-referencing for interlinking and the gitlink macro for pointing to other tools in the git suite.
