# [PATCH] repack: Sync list of options between synopsis and description in the documentation 2 messages from 2022-03-09 to 2022-03-09. Participants: Bagas Sanjaya, Shaoxuan Yuan. Thread: https://gitlist.dev/t/57524 ## Bagas Sanjaya, 2022-03-09 12:34 Subject: [PATCH] repack: Sync list of options between synopsis and description in the documentation Message-ID: <20220309123447.852883-1-bagasdotme@gmail.com> URL: https://gitlist.dev/e/20220309123447.852883-1-bagasdotme%40gmail.com ``` Options list in the synopsis and description section of git-repack(1) are out of sync. The latest addition was in commit 1d89d88d37 (builtin/repack.c: support writing a MIDX while repacking, 2021-09-28), which only adds -m/--write-midx option. Add missing options to the synopsis. Additionaly, sort according to the order they appear in the description.

"git repack []" As Junio mentioned here [1], this could be a more "modern" style? Since the OPTIONS chunk below gives a more detailed usage, I think we can get rid of the redundancy in the SYNOPSIS. And it also helps with the aesthetic and clarity. [1]: https://lore.kernel.org/git/xmqq1r0awse5.fsf@gitster.g/ -- Thanks & Regards, Shaoxuan ```
