From 3f36cbbaaf87b67abafa851e2808735553f92b06 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Carlos Rica Date: Wed, 9 Apr 2008 13:07:14 +0200 Subject: Fix documentation syntax of optional arguments in short options. When an argument for an option is optional, like in -n from git-tag, puting a space between the option and the argument is interpreted as a missing argument for the option plus an isolated argument. Documentation now reflects the need to write the parameter following the option -n, as in "git tag -nARG", for instance.
