From f28ef96d7b04a76575a020a9da4f92358abe68c6 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Quentin Monnet <quentin@isovalent.com> Date: Wed, 9 Sep 2020 17:24:59 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] tools: bpftool: Include common options from separate file Nearly all man pages for bpftool have the same common set of option flags (--help, --version, --json, --pretty, --debug). The description is duplicated across all the pages, which is more difficult to maintain if the description of an option changes. It may also be confusing to sort out what options are not "common" and should not be copied when creating new manual pages. Let's move the description for those common options to a separate file, which is included with a RST directive when generating the man pages.
