Under is better than in because of the nested nature of the .git directory. "also using" sounds a little odd, plus we say combined with later on so just use that. Signed-off-by: Stephen Boyd <bebarino@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

2009-06-13git-rerere.txt: grammatical fixups and cleanupsStephen Boyd
Rewrite the gc section using unresolved and resolved instead of "not recorded". Add plurals and missing articles. Make some sentences have consistent tense. Try and be more active by removing "that" and simplifying sentences. The terms "hand-resolve" and "hand resolve" were used, so just use "hand resolve" to be more consistent.

2009-06-12Documentation: git-send-mail can take rev-list arg to drive format-patchPaolo Bonzini
The git-send-email docs do not mention except in the usage lines the combined patch formatting/sending ability of git-send-email. This patch expands on the possible arguments to git-send-email and explains the meaning of the rev-list argument.

Recent discussion on the list showed some comments in favour of a stash/pop workflow: http://marc.info/?l=git&m=124234911423358&w=2 http://marc.info/?l=git&m=124235348327711&w=2 Change the stash documentation and examples to document pop in its own right (and apply in terms of pop), and use stash/pop in the examples.

2009-05-25fix cat-file usage message and documentationJeff King
cat-file with an object on the command line requires an option to tell it what to output (type, size, pretty-print, etc). However, the square brackets in the usage imply that those options are not required. This patch switches them to parentheses to indicate "required but grouped-OR" (curly braces might also work, but this follows the convention used already by "git stash"). While we're at it, let's change the <sha1> specifier in the usage to <object>. That's what the documentation uses, and it does actually use the regular object lookup.
