I fixed it by updating to 1.71 from fink. I don't know if 1.71 is the minimum supported version so thought this might be worth a note. ~~ Brian ``` ## Junio C Hamano, 2007-08-10 17:17 Subject: Re: [PATCH 2/2] tweak manpage formatting Message-ID: <7v3ayrtil5.fsf@assigned-by-dhcp.cox.net> URL: https://gitlist.dev/e/7v3ayrtil5.fsf%40assigned-by-dhcp.cox.net In-Reply-To: <0F764326-63E8-447D-A2D4-E56E999775D7@silverinsanity.com> ``` Thanks, I'll revert that one. ``` ## Carlos Rica, 2007-08-10 19:16 Subject: Re: [PATCH 2/2] tweak manpage formatting Message-ID: <1b46aba20708101216s7660741ds5ef4c4c0fd13b45c@mail.gmail.com> URL: https://gitlist.dev/e/1b46aba20708101216s7660741ds5ef4c4c0fd13b45c%40mail.gmail.com In-Reply-To: <7v3ayrtil5.fsf@assigned-by-dhcp.cox.net> ``` I think this was because the end-of-line backslash "\" in the ASCII art diagram in the Documentation/git-rev-parse.txt. I think it should be an interesting feature for asciidoc to have long \ lines broken in text version, if only would be a way to disable it. Tried someone to escape that backslash with another backslash before (as in "\\")? 2007/8/10, Junio C Hamano : > Thanks, I'll revert that one. > > ``` ## Brian Gernhardt, 2007-08-10 19:32 Subject: Re: [PATCH 2/2] tweak manpage formatting Message-ID: <3BCFD157-64CE-408E-BFE8-C720A9FAE080@silverinsanity.com> URL: https://gitlist.dev/e/3BCFD157-64CE-408E-BFE8-C720A9FAE080%40silverinsanity.com In-Reply-To: <1b46aba20708101216s7660741ds5ef4c4c0fd13b45c@mail.gmail.com> ``` On Aug 10, 2007, at 3:16 PM, Carlos Rica wrote: > I think this was because the end-of-line backslash "\" in the ASCII > art diagram in the Documentation/git-rev-parse.txt. No, it was complaining about unknown "man.indent.width" in callout.xsl. Apparently docbook-xsl 1.69 doesn't like that. Updating it to 1.71 made it work again. I lost the original error while updating before sending the first mail, unfortunately. If it's truly needed, I probably still have the 1.69 deb file on my computer somewhere. ~~ Brian ```
