[PATCH] provide a Git user-manual man page

2014-02-15 Thread Philip Oakley 
This is a resend of my original patch ($gman/240486), which disappeared
without comment. I've cc'd those who have touched the User-Manual in
the last year for comment on the provision of this access mechanism.

The Git User Manual is formatted as a doc book, rather than as
a man page so isn't directly accessible via the usual 'git help
guide' command.

This patch provides a simple man page with onward links to the true
User-Manual. 

The man page is based directly on a very cut down version of the git(1)
page.

This patch is based on 1.9.0 master.

[PATCH] provide a Git user-manual man page

2014-01-15 Thread Philip Oakley 
The Git User Manual is formatted as a doc book, rather than as
a man page so isn't directly accessible via the 'hit help guide'
command.

This patch provides a simple man page with onward links to the true
User-Manual. 

The man page is based directly on a very cut down version of the git(1)
page.

This patch is based on master, so the update to the help.c list of
guides may need a simple merge resolution with the 'git help everyday'
patch currently in pu.
