7c7781a120 docs: Reword --exec option in watch.1
The manual page for watch for the exec option was confusing and
backwards. Hopefully this one makes more sense.

47100a8125 docs: fix manual page warnings
All warnings where about unnecessary quoting.  The scriptlet
below will tell what was wrong.

for I in ./top/top.1 ./ps/ps.1 ./*.[0-9]; do
    echo "== $I warnings =="
    man --warnings=all $I > /dev/null
done

This should probably be turned to 'make check' script.

81f64657ba watch: exit when command output changes.
Add new flags to watch (-g/--chgexit) so that it exits when the
output changes.  This is useful in builds and shell scripts, for
example when deploying webapps to block the remainder of the
deployment steps until after the webapp starts.

e.g. watch --chgexit curl http://foo/bar
