<h3 id="_man_viewer">man.viewer</h3>
<div class="paragraph"><p>The <em>man.viewer</em> config variable will be checked if the <em>man</em> format
is chosen. The following values are currently supported:</p></div>
<div class="ulist"><ul>
<li>
<p>
"man": use the <em>man</em> program as usual,
</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>
"woman": use <em>emacsclient</em> to launch the "woman" mode in emacs
(this only works starting with emacsclient versions 22),
</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>
"konqueror": use <em>kfmclient</em> to open the man page in a new konqueror
tab (see <em>Note about konqueror</em> below).
</p>
</li>
</ul></div>
<div class="paragraph"><p>Values for other tools can be used if there is a corresponding
<em>man.&lt;tool&gt;.cmd</em> configuration entry (see below).</p></div>
<div class="paragraph"><p>Multiple values may be given to the <em>man.viewer</em> configuration
variable. Their corresponding programs will be tried in the order
listed in the configuration file.</p></div>
<div class="paragraph"><p>For example, this configuration:</p></div>
<div class="listingblock">
<div class="content">
<pre><code>        [man]
                viewer = konqueror
                viewer = woman</code></pre>
</div></div>
<div class="paragraph"><p>will try to use konqueror first. But this may fail (for example if
DISPLAY is not set) and in that case emacs' woman mode will be tried.</p></div>
<div class="paragraph"><p>If everything fails, or if no viewer is configured, the viewer specified
in the GIT_MAN_VIEWER environment variable will be tried.  If that
fails too, the <em>man</em> program will be tried anyway.</p></div>
</div>
<div class="sect2">
<h3 id="_man_lt_tool_gt_path">man.&lt;tool&gt;.path</h3>
<div class="paragraph"><p>You can explicitly provide a full path to your preferred man viewer by
setting the configuration variable <em>man.&lt;tool&gt;.path</em>. For example, you
can configure the absolute path to konqueror by setting
<em>man.konqueror.path</em>. Otherwise, <em>git help</em> assumes the tool is
available in PATH.</p></div>
</div>
<div class="sect2">
<h3 id="_man_lt_tool_gt_cmd">man.&lt;tool&gt;.cmd</h3>
<div class="paragraph"><p>When the man viewer, specified by the <em>man.viewer</em> configuration
variables, is not among the supported ones, then the corresponding
<em>man.&lt;tool&gt;.cmd</em> configuration variable will be looked up. If this
variable exists then the specified tool will be treated as a custom
command and a shell eval will be used to run the command with the man
page passed as arguments.</p></div>
</div>
<div class="sect2">
<h3 id="_note_about_konqueror">Note about konqueror</h3>
<div class="paragraph"><p>When <em>konqueror</em> is specified in the <em>man.viewer</em> configuration
variable, we launch <em>kfmclient</em> to try to open the man page on an
already opened konqueror in a new tab if possible.</p></div>
<div class="paragraph"><p>For consistency, we also try such a trick if <em>man.konqueror.path</em> is
set to something like <em>A_PATH_TO/konqueror</em>. That means we will try to
launch <em>A_PATH_TO/kfmclient</em> instead.</p></div>
<div class="paragraph"><p>If you really want to use <em>konqueror</em>, then you can use something like
the following:</p></div>
<div class="listingblock">
<div class="content">
<pre><code>        [man]
                viewer = konq

[man "konq"]
                cmd = A_PATH_TO/konqueror</code></pre>
</div></div>
</div>
<div class="sect2">
<h3 id="_note_about_git_config_global">Note about git config --global</h3>
<div class="paragraph"><p>Note that all these configuration variables should probably be set
using the <em>--global</em> flag, for example like this:</p></div>
<div class="listingblock">
<div class="content">
<pre><code>$ git config --global help.format web
$ git config --global web.browser firefox</code></pre>
</div></div>
<div class="paragraph"><p>as they are probably more user specific than repository specific.
See <a href="git-config.html">git-config(1)</a> for more information about this.</p></div>
