Subject: [PATCH 0/1] Re: git silently ignores include directive with single quotes
Date: Mon, 24 Sep 2018 23:24:15 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20180924222416.5240-1-philipoakley@iee.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <29173fd8-ce72-0927-9bfe-786442dfd82c@stason.org>

Rather than attaching the problem with code, I decided to simply update
the config file documentation.

As the userbase expands the documentation will need to be more comprehensive
about exclusions and omissions, along with better highlighting for core
areas.

I would be useful if Stas could comment on whether these changes would
have assisted in debugging the faulty config file.

  config doc: highlight the name=value syntax
