Details

Description: Using MAN_BOLD_LITERAL will typeset AsciiDoc literals in bold text[1]. Git uses AsciiDoc literals for commands and command options in its man pages[1][2][3], so this would make reading the man pages much, much easier.

I already rebuilt for 1.8.5.2, but I'll stick this in the PKGBUILD for the next run.

Hmm, this isn't quite this easy, take a look at the PKGBUILD. We don't actually build the manpages, we use the pre-built ones.

This PKGBUILD successfully builds Git and the man pages. I've tested it in urxvt, and it works well.

The above PKGBUILD is missing "asciidoc" as a make dependency.

A PKGBUILD with the fixed makedepends is below:
