From 3eb5682b0b1c16c1b9232f04aff13bd189573b4d Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Markus Heidelberg Date: Sun, 5 Apr 2009 03:48:21 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] git-gui: use `git --html-path` to get the location of installed HTML docs Previously a hardcoded path $GIT_EXEC_PATH/../Documentation/ was used to search for the documentation, when the user has asked for it via menu "Help -> Online Documentation". This didn't work for the default directory structure. To find the path reliably, use the new git command line option, which returns the correct path. If the output of `git --html-path` is empty because git is not found or the option is not yet supported in the installed git, the documentation from kernel.org is launched. There is no additional guessing of the right location of the installed docs. Signed-off-by: Markus Heidelberg Signed-off-by: Shawn O.
