[GSoC][PATCH v6 1/6] doc: factor out common option

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



In preparation for adding documentation for `git refs list`, factor out
the common options from the `git-for-each-ref` man page into a
shareable file `for-each-ref-options.adoc` and update
`git-for-each-ref.adoc` to use an `include::` macro.

This change is a pure refactoring and results in no change to the
final rendered documentation for `for-each-ref`.
