From f0e8640755569ba7da803f7c8f4589953939fad0 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Ed Santiago Date: Tue, 16 Aug 2022 07:35:18 -0600 Subject: Man pages: refactor common options: authfile Refactor the --authfile option. My suggestion for review: 1) run hack/markdown-preprocess-review and immediately Ctrl-Q to quit out of diffuse, which is completely unusable for this many files; then 2) cd /tmp/markdown-preprocess-review.diffs/authfile - this is the directory created by the review script 3) rm podman-image-sign* podman-log* podman-search.1.md.in - because they're essentially identical to podman-create 4) rm podman-manifest-* podman-push.* - because they're 100% identical to podman-kube-play 5) rm podman-kube-play* - because it's apart-from-whitespace identical to podman-build (use "wdiff" to confirm) 6) rm podman-auto-update* - because that's the one I chose (hence == zzz-chosen.md) (You should obviously run your own diff/cmp before rm, to confirm my assertions about which files are identical). After all that, you have a manageable number of files which you can scan, read, diff against zzz-chosen.md, even run diffuse. This option is IMHO the poster child for why we need this kind of man page refactoring.
