File Descriptions

  • document_revision.tex contains both the version history table, and a table containing information about the latest git commit.
    • The version history table defines the authors of the document and the contents of the date field. Both of these are displayed as part of the title page in front_matter.tex. To display the author's full names, they should be included in authors.tex.
    • The table containing the latest git commit requires vc.bat or vc to be run at regular intervals. Before these scripts are run for the first time, the information will all be shown as "N/A".
  • front_matter.tex contains the definitions all of the front matter displayed before the main document contents.
    • The title page is generated first.
    • The document_revision.tex is displayed underneath the title, including the latest git commit information.
    • The table of contents is generated on a new page.
    • The glossaries are generated on a new page.
