# syntactic sugar
|
||
|
|
||
|
Sugar scripts help you change the perceived syntax of the conf language. The
|
||
|
base syntax of the language is as described [here][conf], so sugar scripts
|
||
|
take something *else* and convert it into that.
|
||
|
|
||
|
That way, the admin sees additional features (like allowing continuation
|
||
|
lines), while the parser in the core gitolite engine does not change.
|
||
|
|
||
|
If you want to write your own sugar scripts, please read the "your own sugar"
|
||
|
section in [dev-notes][] first then email me.
