Jeff King	d7e522cffb	rename git-browse--help to git-help--browse The convention for helper scripts has been git-$TOOL--$HELPER. Since this is a "browse" helper for the "help" tool, git-help--browse is a more sensible name. Signed-off-by: Jeff King <peff@peff.net> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>	17 years ago

Christian Couder	70087cdbd3	git-help: add "help.format" config variable. This config variable makes it possible to choose the default format used to display help. This format will be used only if no option like -a\|--all\|-i\|--info\|-m\|--man\|-w\|--web is passed to "git-help". The following values are possible for this variable: - "man" --> "man" program is used - "info" --> "info" program is used - "web" --> "git-browse-help" is used By default we still show help using "man". This patch also adds -m\|--man command line option to use "man" to allow overriding the "help.format" configuration variable. Note that this patch also revert some recent changes in "git-browse-help" because they prevented to look for config variables in the global configuration file.

Junio C Hamano	22c9071728	git-help -w: do not require to be in git repository The users used to be able to say "git help cat-file" from anywhere, but the browse-help script insisted to be in a git repository, which caused "git help -w cat-file" to barf outside. Correct it. While at it, remove leftover debugging "echo". Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>	17 years ago
Christian Couder	d3a866bc8b	Use {web,instaweb,help}.browser config options. Now "git-instaweb" will try to use the browser configured as "web.browser", if "instaweb.browser" is not set. "git-browse-help" will check first "help.browser" and then "web.browser". Signed-off-by: Christian Couder <chriscool@tuxfamily.org> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>	17 years ago
Christian Couder	5d6491c7c7	git-help: add -w\|--web option to display html man page in a browser. Now when using "git help -w cmd", we will try to show the HTML man page "git-cmd.html" in your prefered web browser. To do that "help.c" code will call a new shell script "git-browse-help". This currently works only if the HTML versions of the man page have been installed in $(htmldir) (typically "/usr/share/doc/git-doc"), so new target to do that is added to "Documentation/Makefile". The browser to use can be configured using the "web.browser" config variable. We try to open a new tab in an existing web browser, if possible. The code in "git-browse-help" is heavily stolen from "git-mergetool" by Theodore Y. Ts'o. Thanks.
