2014-02-14man: use spaces instead of tabsJason St. John
Several sections of the man pages included intermixed tabs and spaces; this commit replaces all tabs with spaces.
2014-02-14man: replace STDOUT with standard output, etc.Zbigniew Jędrzejewski-Szmek
Actually 'STDOUT' is something that doesn't appear anywhere: in the stdlib we have 'stdin', and there's only the constant STDOUT_FILENO, so there's no reason to use capitals. When refering to code, STDOUT/STDOUT/STDERR are replaced with stdin/stdout/stderr, and in other places they are replaced with normal phrases like standard output, etc.
2014-02-14man: fix grammatical errors and other formatting issuesJason St. John
* standardize capitalization of STDIN, STDOUT, and STDERR * reword some sentences for clarity * reflow some very long lines to be shorter than ~80 characters * add some missing <literal>, <constant>, <varname>, <option>, and <filename> tags
2014-02-14man: always place <programlisting> and </programlisting> in a line with ↵Lennart Poettering
actual sources, so that we don't get spurious newlines in the man page output
2014-02-14man: systemd.service(5): clarify behavior of SuccessExitStatusDave Reisner
The behavior of this is a little cryptic in that $MAINPID must exit as a direct result of receiving a signal in order for a listed signal to be considered a success condition.
2014-01-09man: mention which variables will be expanded in ExecStartZbigniew Jędrzejewski-Szmek
2013-12-27man: add a note about propagating signalsZbigniew Jędrzejewski-Szmek
2013-12-27man: fix Type= reference v2Zbigniew Jędrzejewski-Szmek
grawity: It looks like the old version _was_ correct – the default value will be "Type=dbus" if the service has a BusName set. Suggested change: "if neither Type= nor BusName= is specified"
2013-12-26man: fix Type= referenceMarcos Felipe Rasia de Mello
Simple man page fix attached. -- Marcos From 268d10a2f8769fd1dcb9440670af15ac02c5df89 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Marcos Mello <marcosfrm@gmail.com> Date: Thu, 26 Dec 2013 17:19:04 -0200 Subject: [PATCH 1/1] man: fix Type= reference
2013-12-25man: grammar and wording improvementsJan Engelhardt
This is a recurring submission and includes corrections to: - missing words, preposition choice. - change of /lib to /usr/lib, because that is what most distros are using as the system-wide location for systemd/udev files.
2013-12-25man: improvements to comma placementJan Engelhardt
This is a recurring submission and includes corrections to: comma placement.
2013-12-25man: resolve word omissionsJan Engelhardt
This is a recurring submission and includes corrections to: word omissions and word class choice.
2013-12-14man: remove advice to avoid setting the same var more than onceZbigniew Jędrzejewski-Szmek
So far the compatibility with .desktop settings hasn't been imporant at all, and we do not want people to write convoluted unit files.
2013-12-14man: beef up ExecStart descriptionZbigniew Jędrzejewski-Szmek
We have lots of questions from people who assume that shell syntax works here, so let's be very explicit what is allowed and what is not. A few examples should also help. http://bugs.debian.org/732156

https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=71132 Patch adds DefaultTimeoutStartSec, DefaultTimeoutStopSec, DefaultRestartSec configuration options to manager configuration file.
2013-10-19mount/service: drop FsckPassNo supportTom Gundersen
We now treat passno as boleans in the generators, and don't need this any more. fsck itself is able to sequentialize checks on the same local media, so in the common case the ordering is redundant. It is still possible to force an order by using .d fragments, in case that is desired.
2013-10-15man: wording and grammar updatesJan Engelhardt
This is a recurring submission and includes corrections to various issue spotted. I guess I can just skip over reporting ubiquitous comma placement fixes…
2013-09-27man: drop references to "cgroup" wher appropriateLennart Poettering
Since cgroups are mostly now an implementation detail of systemd lets deemphasize it a bit in the man pages. This renames systemd.cgroup(5) to systemd.resource-control(5) and uses the term "resource control" rather than "cgroup" where appropriate. This leaves the word "cgroup" in at a couple of places though, like for example systemd-cgtop and systemd-cgls where cgroup stuff is at the core of what is happening.
2013-09-19clarify $ escaping in Exec* linesAndrey Borzenkov
Explain that literal $ can be passed by doubling it.
2013-09-12man: wording and grammar updatesJan Engelhardt
This is a recurring submission and includes corrections to various issue spotted. I guess I can just skip over reporting ubiquitous comma placement fixes… Highligts in this particular commit: - the "unsigned" type qualifier is completed to form a full type "unsigned int" - alphabetic -> lexicographic (that way we automatically define how numbers get sorted)
2013-09-12service: Implement 'on-watchdog' restart optionHannes Reinecke
Services using the watchdog option might want to be restarted only if the watchdog triggers.
2013-09-11man: document that Type=notify is currently incompatible with PrivateNetwork=yesLennart Poettering
2013-09-10man: wording and grammar updatesJan Engelhardt
This includes regularly-submitted corrections to comma setting and orthographical mishaps that appeared in man/ in recent commits. In this particular commit: - the usual comma fixes - expand contractions (this is prose)
2013-07-12man: document the slice and scope units, add systemd.cgroup(5)Zbigniew Jędrzejewski-Szmek
2013-07-02man: add more formatting markupZbigniew Jędrzejewski-Szmek
2013-07-02man: improve grammar and word formatting in numerous man pagesJason St. John
Use proper grammar, word usage, adjective hyphenation, commas, capitalization, spelling, etc. To improve readability, some run-on sentences or sentence fragments were revised. [zj: remove the space from 'file name', 'host name', and 'time zone'.]
2013-06-26man: always supply quotes around literalsZbigniew Jędrzejewski-Szmek
When manpages are displayed on a terminal, <literal>s are indistinguishable from surrounding text. Add quotes everywhere, remove duplicate quotes, and tweak a few lists for consistent formatting. https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=874631

2013-03-13man: Document the actual behaviour of ExecStopPostMathieu Bridon
The documentation makes it sound like ExecStopPost is only run when stopping the service with `systemctl stop foo.service` However, that is not the case, as it also gets run when the service unexpectedly exists, crashes, or gets SIGKILLed.

2013-01-26man: extend systemd.directives(7) to all manual pagesZbigniew Jędrzejewski-Szmek
New sections are added: PAM options, crypttab options, commandline options, miscellaneous. The last category will be used for all untagged <varname> elements. Commandline options sections is meant to be a developer tool: when adding an option it is sometimes useful to be able to check if similarly named options exist elsewhere.

2012-10-26man: typo fixesThomas Hindoe Paaboel Andersen
https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=55890 Fixed typos, serial comma, and removed "either" as there were more than two options. Also did an extra rename of "system-shutdown" to "systemd-shutdown" that was forgotten in commit 8bd3b8620c80d0f2383f2fb04315411fc8077ca1

2012-10-16Reword sentences that contain psuedo-English "resp."Andrew Eikum
As you likely know, Arch Linux is in the process of moving to systemd. So I was reading through the various systemd docs and quickly became baffled by this new abbreviation "resp.", which I've never seen before in my English-mother-tongue life. Some quick Googling turned up a reference: <http://www.transblawg.eu/index.php?/archives/870-Resp.-and-other-non-existent-English-wordsNicht-existente-englische-Woerter.html> I guess it's a literal translation of the German "Beziehungsweise", but English doesn't work the same way. The word "respectively" is used exclusively to provide an ordering connection between two lists. E.g. "the prefixes k, M, and G refer to kilo-, mega-, and giga-, respectively." It is also never abbreviated to "resp." So the sentence "Sets the default output resp. error output for all services and sockets" makes no sense to a natural English speaker. This patch removes all instances of "resp." in the man pages and replaces them with sentences which are much more clear and, hopefully, grammatically valid. In almost all instances, it was simply replacing "resp." with "or," which the original author (Lennart?) could probably just do in the future. The only other instances of "resp." are in the src/ subtree, which I don't feel privileged to correct. Signed-off-by: Andrew Eikum <aeikum@codeweavers.com>

2012-08-14service: add options RestartPreventExitStatus and SuccessExitStatusLukas Nykryn
In some cases, like wrong configuration, restarting after error does not help, so administrator can specify statuses by RestartPreventExitStatus which will not cause restart of a service. Sometimes you have non-standart exit status, so this can be specified by SuccessfulExitStatus.
