Thread: https://gitlist.dev/t/32584 ## Tim Chase, 2013-01-11 00:33 Subject: [PATCH] minor diff between gitweb docs and actual template for $GIT/description Message-ID: <50EF5DC8.1000500@tim.thechases.com> URL: https://gitlist.dev/e/50EF5DC8.1000500%40tim.thechases.com ``` The documentation for gitweb gives one description of the default content for the $GIT/description, the description template has other text. One of these two patches should be applied to bring them into order (applying both would just reverse the problem). Or, both could be changed to the same new text. -tkc (not subscribed to the actual git ML, just git-users@googlegroups.com) diff --git a/Documentation/gitweb.txt b/Documentation/gitweb.txt index 168e8bf..7c4cb69 100644 --- a/Documentation/gitweb.txt +++ b/Documentation/gitweb.txt @@ -227,7 +227,7 @@ description (or `gitweb.description`):: repository).

Hahahahah...a one liner doc-fix copy/pasting code from one place in the codebase to another? If you need it, you've got it: For my one line diff: Signed-off-by: Tim Chase Otherwise, consider my contribution CC0 or public domain or whatever suits you best. Or take my patch as a bug report and "make" the fix yourself. :-) The patches should have been based off the master branch of github.com/git/git, FWIW. -tkc @gumnos ```
