Subject: [PUSHED] doc: switch to perlpod (from pandoc-flavored Markdown)
Date: Sun, 14 Feb 2016 11:28:56 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20160214112856.GA17497@dcvr.yhbt.net> (raw)

pod2man(1) and pod2text(1) are already installed on most modern
GNU/Linix systems including Debian and RedHat-based systems;
pandoc(1) and Haskell are not, and we do not wish to waste
precious bandwidth and disk space of potential packagers.

perlpod(1) is also better standardized than any Markdown flavor,
especially when it comes to generating manpages.

Finally, I'm mildly proficient at Perl (it is similar to Ruby)
and can poke around at the source if I encounter breakage.

<snip>  Big indentation changes necessary, so it breaks
rename detection.  Full patch here:
