Asciidoc renders `--` as em-dash. This is not appropriate for command
names. It also breaks linkgit links to these commands.
Fix git-credential-cache--daemon and git-fsmonitor--daemon. The latter
was added 3248486920 (fsmonitor: document builtin fsmonitor, 2022-03-25)
and included several links. A check for broken links in the HTML docs
turned this up.
Manually inspecting the other Documentation/git-*--*.txt files turned up
the issue in git-credential-cache--daemon.
While here, quote `git credential-cache--daemon` in the synopsis to
match the vast majority of our other documentation.

NAME
|
|
----
|
|
git-fsmonitor--daemon - A Built-in File System Monitor
|
|
|
|
SYNOPSIS
|
|
--------
|
|
[verse]
|
|
'git fsmonitor{litdd}daemon' start
|
|
'git fsmonitor{litdd}daemon' run
|
|
'git fsmonitor{litdd}daemon' stop
|
|
'git fsmonitor{litdd}daemon' status
|
|
|
|
DESCRIPTION
|
|
-----------
|
|
|
|
A daemon to watch the working directory for file and directory
|
|
changes using platform-specific file system notification facilities.
|
|
|
|
This daemon communicates directly with commands like `git status`
|
|
using the link:technical/api-simple-ipc.html[simple IPC] interface
|
|
instead of the slower linkgit:githooks[5] interface.
|
|
|
|
This daemon is built into Git so that no third-party tools are
|
|
required.
|
|
|
|
OPTIONS
|
|
-------
|
|
|
|
start::
|
|
Starts a daemon in the background.
|
|
|
|
run::
|
|
Runs a daemon in the foreground.
|
|
|
|
stop::
|
|
Stops the daemon running in the current working
|
|
directory, if present.
|
|
|
|
status::
|
|
Exits with zero status if a daemon is watching the
|
|
current working directory.
|
|
|
|
REMARKS
|
|
-------
|
|
|
|
This daemon is a long running process used to watch a single working
|
|
directory and maintain a list of the recently changed files and
|
|
directories. Performance of commands such as `git status` can be
|
|
increased if they just ask for a summary of changes to the working
|
|
directory and can avoid scanning the disk.
|
|
|
|
When `core.fsmonitor` is set to `true` (see linkgit:git-config[1])
|
|
commands, such as `git status`, will ask the daemon for changes and
|
|
automatically start it (if necessary).
|
|
|
|

|
|
linkgit:git-update-index[1].

|
CAVEATS
|
|
-------
|
|
|
|
The fsmonitor daemon does not currently know about submodules and does
|
|
not know to filter out file system events that happen within a
|
|
submodule. If fsmonitor daemon is watching a super repo and a file is
|
|
modified within the working directory of a submodule, it will report
|
|
the change (as happening against the super repo). However, the client
|
|
will properly ignore these extra events, so performance may be affected
|
|
but it will not cause an incorrect result.
