From: Mohammad Akhlaghi
Subject: [gnuastro-commits] master 333aa37: Book's acknowledgement section and --cite description updated
Date: Thu, 8 Nov 2018 14:06:29 -0500 (EST)

branch: master
commit 333aa37b72e94b9a88301c0c755fbf106d095c94
Author: Mohammad Akhlaghi <address@hidden>
Commit: Mohammad Akhlaghi <address@hidden>

    Book's acknowledgement section and --cite description updated
    
    Some further minor updates were made to the acknowledgement
    section. Afterwards, I noticed that the description of `--cite' also didn't
    mention any acknowledgement or the "Acknowledgements" section, so it was
    updated and a link to that section was added.

 Gnuastro is still new, there is no separate paper only devoted to Gnuastro
 yet. Therefore currently the paper to cite for Gnuastro is the paper for
 NoiseChisel which is the first published paper introducing Gnuastro to the
 astronomical community. Upon reaching a certain point, a paper completely
-devoted to Gnuastro will be published, see @ref{GNU Astronomy Utilities
