2009-03-27Documentation: move quieting params into manpage-base.xslChris Johnsen
Move a couple of XSL parameters that act to silence informational/warning messages generated when running xmlto from manpage-1.72.xsl to manpage-base.xsl. Since unused parameters are silently ignored, there is no problem if some version of docbook-xsl does not know about these parameters. The only problem might be if a version of docbook-xsl uses the parameters for alternate functionality. Since both parameters have fairly specific names such a situation is unlikely. Testing done with asciidoc 8.3.1 and docbook-xsl 1.74.0. Signed-off-by: Chris Johnsen <chris_johnsen@pobox.com> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

I was able to solve this problem with this patch, which adds a XSL file used specifically for DOCBOOK_XSL_172=YesPlease and where dots and backslashes are escaped properly so they won't be substituted to the wrong thing further down the "DocBook XSL pipeline". Doing the escaping in the existing callout.xsl breaks v1.70.1. Hopefully v1.73 will end this part of the manpage nightmare. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
