Merge branch 'ab/get-short-oid'
When a short hexadecimal string is used to name an object but there are multiple objects that share the string as the prefix of their names, the code lists these ambiguous candidates in a help message. These object names are now sorted according to their types for easier eyeballing. * ab/get-short-oid: get_short_oid: sort ambiguous objects by type, then SHA-1 sha1-name.c: move around the collect_ambiguous() function git-p4: change "commitish" typo to "committish" sha1-array.h: align function arguments sha1-name.c: remove stray newline
