The SYNOPSIS sections of most commands that span several lines already use [verse] to retain line breaks. Most commands that don't span several lines seem not to use [verse]. In the HTML output, [verse] does not only preserve line breaks, but also makes the section indented, which causes a slight inconsistency between commands that use [verse] and those that don't. Use [verse] in all SYNOPSIS sections for consistency. Also remove the blank lines from git-fetch.txt and git-rebase.txt to align with the other man pages. In the case of git-rebase.txt, which already uses [verse], the blank line makes the [verse] not apply to the last line, so removing the blank line also makes the formatting within the document more consistent. While at it, add single quotes to 'git cvsimport' for consistency with other commands.

NAME

|
|
git-lost-found - Recover lost refs that luckily have not yet been pruned
|
|
|
|
SYNOPSIS
|
|
--------
|
|
[verse]
|
|
'git lost-found'
|
|
|
|
DESCRIPTION
|
|
-----------
|
|
|
|
*NOTE*: this command is deprecated. Use linkgit:git-fsck[1] with
|
|
the option '--lost-found' instead.
|
|
|
|
Finds dangling commits and tags from the object database, and
|
|
creates refs to them in the .git/lost-found/ directory. Commits and
|
|
tags that dereference to commits are stored in .git/lost-found/commit,
|
|
and other objects are stored in .git/lost-found/other.
|
|
|
|
|
|
OUTPUT
|
|
------
|
|
Prints to standard output the object names and one-line descriptions
|
|
of any commits or tags found.
|
|
|
|
EXAMPLE
|
|
-------
|
|
|
|
Suppose you run 'git tag -f' and mistype the tag to overwrite.
|
|
The ref to your tag is overwritten, but until you run 'git
|
|
prune', the tag itself is still there.

|
------------
|
|
|
|
Also you can use gitk to browse how any tags found relate to each
|
|
other.
|
|
|
|
------------
|
|
$ gitk $(cd .git/lost-found/commit && echo ??*)
|
|
------------
|
|
|
|
After making sure you know which the object is the tag you are looking
|
|
for, you can reconnect it to your regular .git/refs hierarchy.
