2012-01-12doc/vercmp: add note about pkgrel handlingDan McGee
This comes from the Doxygen function documentation. Also, fix two rather silly misspellings. Signed-off-by: Dan McGee <dan@archlinux.org>
2011-08-23vercmp: ensure 2.0a and 2.0.a do not compare equalDan McGee
We had this interesting set of facts conundrum, according to vercmp return values: 2.0a < 2.0 2.0 < 2.0.a 2.0a == 2.0.a This introduces a code change that ensures '2.0a < 2.0.a' as would be expected by the first two comparisons. Unfortunately this stays us a bit further from upstream RPM code, but those are the breaks (in RPM, the versions involving 'a' do in fact compare the same, but they are both greater than the bare '2.0').

2011-07-28Unify modelines in Asciidoc filesDan McGee
This gets us close to using the same modeline in all files we run through Asciidoc, as well as adding the spell and spelllang declarations, just as we had in NEWS already. The choice of 'en_us' is mainly for consistency and because the body of work already uses these spellings. Signed-off-by: Dan McGee <dan@archlinux.org>
2011-01-22doc: add a vercmp manpageDan McGee
This includes info on version comparison that is very similar to the stuff in the pacman manpage, but also a few vercmp examples, the return values, and other fun stuff. Also update the version comparison stuff in the pacman manpage. Signed-off-by: Dan McGee <dan@archlinux.org>
