willing to submit some patches to standardize the syntax of man
pages in terms of rendering "optional" and/or "replaceable" content,
and it seems like "man git-config" would be a good place to start:
SYNOPSIS
git config [<file-option>] [type] [--show-origin] [-z|--null] name
[value [value_regex]]
git config [<file-option>] [type] --add name value
git config [<file-option>] [type] --replace-all name value [value_regex]
...snip ...
can i assume the proper (uniform) syntax for the above would be
(shortening lines):
... [<type>] [--show-origin] [-z|--null] <name> [<value> [<value_regex>]]
... [<type>] --add <name> <value>
... [<type>] --replace-all <name> <value> [<value_regex>]
and so on. is that the consensus? i wouldn't try to do it all at once,
maybe just a page at a time to not be too disruptive.
