Documentation: be consistent about "git-" versus "git "
Since the git-* commands are not installed in $(bindir), using "git-command <parameters>" in examples in the documentation is not a good idea. On the other hand, it is nice to be able to refer to each command using one hyphenated word. (There is no escaping it, anyway: man page names cannot have spaces in them.) This patch retains the dash in naming an operation, command, program, process, or action. Complete command lines that can be entered at a shell (i.e., without options omitted) are made to use the dashless form. The changes consist only of replacing some spaces with hyphens and vice versa. After a "s/ /-/g", the unpatched and patched versions are identical. Signed-off-by: Jonathan Nieder <jrnieder@uchicago.edu> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

If you're only interested in differences in a subset of files, for
example some architecture-specific files, you might do:
- git-diff-tree -r <tree-ish> <tree-ish> arch/ia64 include/asm-ia64
+ git diff-tree -r <tree-ish> <tree-ish> arch/ia64 include/asm-ia64
and it will only show you what changed in those two directories.
Or if you are searching for what changed in just `kernel/sched.c`, just do
- git-diff-tree -r <tree-ish> <tree-ish> kernel/sched.c
+ git diff-tree -r <tree-ish> <tree-ish> kernel/sched.c
