Subject: [PATCH v2 0/3] bitmap-format.txt: fix some formatting issues and include checksum info
Date: Tue, 07 Jun 2022 17:43:31 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <pull.1246.v2.git.1654623814.gitgitgadget@gmail.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <pull.1246.git.1654177966.gitgitgadget@gmail.com>
There are some issues in the bitmap-format html page. For example, some
nested lists are shown as top-level lists (e.g. [1]- Here
BITMAP_OPT_FULL_DAG (0x1) and BITMAP_OPT_HASH_CACHE (0x4) are shown as
top-level list). There is also a need of adding info about trailing checksum
in the docs.
Changes since v1:
* a new commit addressing bitmap-format.txt html page generation is added
* Remove extra indentation from the previous change
* elaborate more about the trailing checksum (as suggested by Kaartic)
initial version:
* first commit fixes some formatting issues
* information about trailing checksum in the bitmap file is added in the
bitmap-format doc.
