Hmmm.  I've also had some problems as well getting a correct man page  
build although it's the non-web version.  In my case I use the git- 
config.1 man page to detect the problem.  Uninteresting lines have  
been replaced with "[...]" for brevity in the following samples.   
Using 'MANWIDTH=65 man -c ./git-config.1' the bad man page has a  
section that looks like this:


http..*
   Any of the http.* options above can be applied
   selectively to some urls. For a config key to
   match a URL, each element of the config key is
   compared to that of the URL, in the following
   order:

1. Scheme (e.g., https in
   https://example.com/). This field must
   match exactly between the config key and
   the URL.
   [...]
5. User name (e.g., user in
   https://u...@example.com/repo.git). If the
   [...]
   precedence than a config key with a user
   name.
   The list above is ordered by decreasing
   precedence; a URL that matches a config
   [...]
   be preferred over a config key match of
   https://u...@example.com.

   All URLs are normalized before attempting
   any matching (the password part, if
   [...]
   any URLs visited as a result of a
   redirection do not participate in matching.

   i18n.commitEncoding
   Character encoding the commit messages are
   stored in; Git itself does not care per se,

The rest of the man page continues to be incorrectly indented too far,  
but I've omitted it for brevity.


The good output for the same section looks like this:

   selectively to some urls. For a config key to

I have two different systems to build these pages on:

System A:
  OS X + Mac Ports
  asciidoc --version
asciidoc 8.6.6
  xmlto --version
xmlto version 0.0.24
  docbook-xsl is 1.75.2_0
  produces bad git-config.1

System B:
  Ubuntu
  asciidoc --version
asciidoc 8.5.2
  xmlto --version
xmlto version 0.0.23
  docbook-xsl is 1.75.2+dfsg-3
  produces good git-config.1

The git-config.1 file is built like so:

1. asciidoc produces git-config.xml from git-config.txt

2. xmlto produces git-config.1 from git-config.xml

System A:
  git-config.txt: md5=c63cbafddb1bc3d6c38b6b2941f8cbce
  git-config.xml: md5=99c0caa45ec02e8712c346e8842a7ce6
  git-config.1:   md5=812f8d180ec82c2786b95e986219a5d0

System B:
  git-config.txt: md5=c63cbafddb1bc3d6c38b6b2941f8cbce
  git-config.xml: md5=99c0caa45ec02e8712c346e8842a7ce6
  git-config.1:   md5=7298467bedd0225d5edefa8700bc9b2a

So actually the problem here is not the asciidoc step, it's actually  
the xmlto step.


And, if I make the following changes to the git-config.1 file produced  
on system A:

This does seem to be an issue with git-scm.com only, so this is
probably an issue with the AsciiDoc formatter they use.

What AsciiDoc formatter (and version) do you use?

Sorry for the long delay in replying!

That looks funnily formatted, out of place and redundant.

Hmph. https://git-htmldocs.googlecode.com/git/git.html has HTML
documentation pages I preformat, but as far as I can see, the bugs
section of git-rebase(1) does not have such a "carnage".

Perhaps git-scm.com uses some buggy formatter?

Thanks for explaining.  Can you point me to which part of
SubmittingPatches said to include that kind of thing?

Thanks for checking.  You have a few choices.

 a) Check if asciidoctor reproduces the problem, and if so, report it
as a compatibility bug.  Ask the gitscm-next maintainers to get
their copy of asciidoctor up to date.

 b) Come up with a simple rule about how these "" blocks should be
formatted, and apply it consistently to the documentation in
Documentation/, with a commit message explaining the story so
future contributors know to continue to follow it.

 c) Resend the same patch that just fixes git-rebase.txt.  Include a
Reported-by line to credit the person who originally caught the
error.  Explain what's going on in the commit message and that
there are other instances of the problem that this patch doesn't
yet fix.

I prefer (b), since it would solve the problem more completely and
means future readers wouldn't be confused about which style to use,
but other possibilities (e.g., some combination of the options listed
above, or something else entirely) could work as well.

Thanks again for tracking this down, and hope that helps,
Jonathan

I regrettably must admit that I didn't test this before submitting, so
I had presumed that it was AsciiDoc itself.

All of the files you referenced appear to render okay except for
git-svn.txt and gitweb.txt.

Documentation/git-svn.txt:
* Commands | fetch | --ignore-paths
* Commands | dcommit | --commit-url
* Commands | dcommit | --mergeinfo
* Commands | reset | --parent
* Caveats (third paragraph)
See http://git-scm.com/docs/git-svn#_commands and
http://git-scm.com/docs/git-svn#_caveats

Documentation/gitweb.txt:
* This cascades from the virtual host config file example until the
Bugs section.
See: 
http://git-scm.com/docs/gitweb#_webserver_configuration_with_multiple_projects'_root

Based on this and the source files, I suspect the problem lies with,
for example, the predecessor of asciidoctor in gitscm-next.

How do you recommend I proceed? Should I resubmit with just a revised
commit message? Should I incorporate this into a larger patch set that
should fix all of the errors in git-rebase.txt, git-svn.txt, and
gitweb.txt?

Thanks,
Jason

I'd leave out the above two description lines, since they're redundant
next to the patch text.

Interesting.  Alas, I can't reproduce this.

Are you sure it is AsciiDoc that misinterprets the document, and not,
e.g., the predecessor of asciidoctor in gitscm-next?

Do

  Documentation/git-check-attr.txt
  Documentation/git-commit.txt
  Documentation/git-cvsserver.txt
  Documentation/git-p4.txt
  Documentation/git-svn.txt
  Documentation/gitcli.txt
  Documentation/gitweb.txt
  Documentation/mailmap.txt
  
avoid this problem?
