| Rocket2DMn | Hey mdke , when you merged my branch, does the branch go away? | 15:49 |
| Rocket2DMn | I dont see it listed anymore on https://code.launchpad.net/ubuntu-doc | 15:50 |
| Rocket2DMn | Basically what I'm getting at is that I had to upload all 90-something MB of the docs to that branch and I'd prefer not to need to do that every time I have a branch merged | 15:50 |
| gartral | i found an out of place comma on https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AutomaticallyMountPartitions first paragraph, section 2.3 | 19:39 |
| Rocket2DMn | lol ok... | 20:20 |
| nhandler | Would anyone here be willing to give me a hand with a section of documentation? | 22:08 |
| DougieRichardson | which section | 22:08 |
| nhandler | DougieRichardson: https://code.edge.launchpad.net/~nhandler/ubuntu-doc/ppa | 22:09 |
| nhandler | I'm working on a ppa section, but I have a few questions | 22:09 |
| DougieRichardson | OK | 22:09 |
| DougieRichardson | Jut grabbing your branch | 22:10 |
| nhandler | First, if you look in there, you will see that I use italicized text to denote parts of commands that need to be replaced, what is the propper way to do that? | 22:10 |
| nhandler | DougieRichardson: I would just use the web interface. It is only a small portion of one file | 22:10 |
| DougieRichardson | OK | 22:11 |
| DougieRichardson | which file | 22:12 |
| nhandler | DougieRichardson: Open up the diff for the most recent revision | 22:12 |
| nhandler | add-applications/C/add-applications.xml | 22:12 |
| DougieRichardson | I see what you mean. I'm not aware of a convention in this respect | 22:13 |
| DougieRichardson | as long as it is clear that something needs to be substituted | 22:14 |
| nhandler | Also, most of the content is straight from the old section about adding a repository to /etc/apt/sources.list. Should I merge the two together? | 22:15 |
| DougieRichardson | where was the original section? | 22:17 |
| DougieRichardson | Ah I see, no - I'd leave them seperate so that you can link to adding a source from other sections. | 22:17 |
| nhandler | DougieRichardson: Is there a way to use includes to avoid the duplication of content? | 22:20 |
| DougieRichardson | We try to structure things in such a way that we can link to them, so in this case you're saying add a source (click here if you need to know how to do it) sort of thing | 22:21 |
| DougieRichardson | For your emphasis problem, mark the section as needing help and we'll raise it on the mailing list - I think we need to add something to the styleguide. | 22:22 |
| DougieRichardson | I'm proposing to use the <emphasis> tag to wrap the part to be entered within the <filename> tag in this case. | 22:25 |
| DougieRichardson | nhandler:does that help at all? | 22:28 |
