From 79c461d5b1139afa3d3997c7ef9ee521562b2a1a Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Jeff King Date: Fri, 19 Nov 2010 12:54:24 -0500 Subject: docs: default to more modern toolset When the ASCIIDOC8 and ASCIIDOC_NO_ROFF knobs were built, many people were still on asciidoc 7 and using older versions of docbook-xsl. These days, even the almost 2-year-old Debian stable needs these knobs turned. So let's turn them by default. The new knobs ASCIIDOC7 and ASCIIDOC_ROFF can be used to get the old behavior if people are on older systems.
