2011-07-06Documentation: use [verse] for SYNOPSIS sectionsMartin von Zweigbergk
The SYNOPSIS sections of most commands that span several lines already use [verse] to retain line breaks. Most commands that don't span several lines seem not to use [verse]. In the HTML output, [verse] does not only preserve line breaks, but also makes the section indented, which causes a slight inconsistency between commands that use [verse] and those that don't. Use [verse] in all SYNOPSIS sections for consistency. Also remove the blank lines from git-fetch.txt and git-rebase.txt to align with the other man pages. In the case of git-rebase.txt, which already uses [verse], the blank line makes the [verse] not apply to the last line, so removing the blank line also makes the formatting within the document more consistent. While at it, add single quotes to 'git cvsimport' for consistency with other commands.

2011-02-11svn-fe: warn about experimental statusJonathan Nieder
svn-fe is young and some coming cleanups might involve backward incompatible UI changes. Add some words of warning to the manual so early adopters that are not following the project closely don't get burned.

2010-08-15svn-fe manual: Clarify warning about deltas in dump filesJonathan Nieder
Those in the know would notice that dump file format version 2 means "svnadmin dump --no-deltas", but for the rest of us, an explicit reminder is useful. Signed-off-by: Jonathan Nieder <jrnieder@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2010-08-15Update svn-fe manualJonathan Nieder
The svn-fe example does not litter the working directory with .bin files any more (hoorah!). The permissive error handling implies a known bug. We should be flagging iffy input and, even if we continue, reporting it on exit.

2010-07-16Add a sample user for the svndump libraryJonathan Nieder
The svn-fe tool takes a Subversion dump file as input and produces a fast-import stream as output. This can be useful as a low-level tool in building other importers, or for debugging the vcs-svn library. make svn-fe make svn-fe.1 to test.
