# Command classification list
# ---------------------------
# All supported commands, builtin or external, must be described in
# here. This info is used to list commands in various places. Each
# command is on one line followed by one or more attributes.
#
# The first attribute group is mandatory and indicates the command
# type. This group includes:
#
# mainporcelain
# ancillarymanipulators
# ancillaryinterrogators
# foreignscminterface
# plumbingmanipulators
# plumbinginterrogators
# synchingrepositories
# synchelpers
# purehelpers
#
# The type names are self explanatory. But if you want to see what
# command belongs to what group to get a better picture, have a look
# at "git" man page, "GIT COMMANDS" section.
#
# Commands of type mainporcelain can also optionally have one of these
# attributes:
#
# init
# worktree
# info
# history
# remote
#
# These commands are considered "common" and will show up in "git
# help" output in groups. Uncommon porcelain commands must not
# specify any of these attributes.
#
# "complete" attribute is used to mark that the command should be
# completable by git-completion.bash. Note that by default,
# mainporcelain commands are completable so you don't need this
# attribute.
#
# As part of the Git man page list, the man(5/7) guides are also
# specified here, which can only have "guide" attribute and nothing
# else.
