Hear, hear. I've now committed all of Larry's patch emails to git bar one; it was adding a trivial example to the start of mh-alias(5). I've then gone back through the git history of every man page looking for the recent commit that was a significant change and altered `.TH's date to that. This removes probably all of Larry's date changes, but isn't as simple as restoring the date before his because I thought they were wrong in a few cases. The date has also changed from reverse-podium /^mmm dd?, yyyy$/ to yyyy-mm-dd format as man(7) here refers to man-pages(7) for .TH and that dictactes the sane modern format. mh-chart.man hasn't been touched. I think it's built, but not automatically? The man pages still need much work, but now the backlog from Larry is processed, incremental changes can occur without causing merge problems. I still need to add more conventions to docs/README.manpages. -- Cheers, Ralph. https://plus.google.com/+RalphCorderoy _______________________________________________ Nmh-workers mailing list [email protected] https://lists.nongnu.org/mailman/listinfo/nmh-workers
