Dear diary, on Tue, Apr 19, 2005 at 07:35:15PM CEST, I got a letter
where Steven Cole <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> told me that...
I've been working on git.pl and getting help working nicely
things to try:
git.pl help
git.pl add
git.pl add --help
git.pl add --man
git.pl help add
The main objectives:
* get a reasonable perl code base in git.pl
* provide some way to document WTF is going on :)
* keep the docs near the developer
* allow variations in verbosity
* modularise
* don't use modules outside the base perl set
* allow a gentle migration (so start by calling the .sh's)
I don't like the pod2usage calling convention but I use them for now.
I don't love the 'require gitadd.pl' but it's a gradual start...
Cogito.pm seems to be a good place for the library stuff.
git.pl
passes everything to scripts except gitadd.pl
works when called from somewhere other than the git dir
I don't feel 100% about the fixup ports
gitadd.pl
I thought I'd ask for comments before I spent too much time on this...

I only did my version which spits out the comments at the top of the
shell script as a quick hack.
This looks good to me. Keeping the docs near the developer is essential,
I think. Speaking of "I think", the name "cogito" was suggested for the
SCM layer, but IIRC Linus suggested staying with just plain git. Petr
suggested tig, perhaps because it looks at git from another point of view.
If we ever do decide to name the SCM layer (the git-pasky stuff) something
with "git inside", other choices are:
agitato Beethoven's "Moonlight Sonata" 3rd movment is "Presto agitato"
legit Since git is GPLv2, but perhaps a little too French.
regurgitate No comment neccessary.
