#16749: git-core 1.6.0.2 - incorrect handling of html documentation -------------------------------+-------------------------------------------- Reporter: luc@honk-honk.com | Owner: macports-tickets@lists.macosforge.org Type: defect | Status: new Priority: Normal | Milestone: Port Bugs Component: ports | Version: 1.6.0 Keywords: documentation | Port: git-core -------------------------------+-------------------------------------------- Git expects its html documentation to be in a precise place, represented by the ''GIT_HTML_PATH'' environment variable in the source (builtin- help.c), set in the Makefile from the ''htmldir'' variable. The default git html path is ''$(sharedir)/doc/git-doc'' but the git-core Portfile installs all doc files including the html files in ''${prefix}/share/doc /git-core''. This makes commands like ''git help --web COMMAND'' to fail with the following error message: "fatal: '/opt/local/share/doc/git-doc': not a documentation directory". The git-core Portfile should either modify the ''htmldir'' variable in the Makefile or install the html documenation files in the correct location. -- Ticket URL: <http://trac.macports.org/ticket/16749> MacPorts <http://www.macports.org/> Ports system for Mac OS
