When searching the commit graph for tag candidates, `git-describe`
will stop as soon as there is only one active branch left and
it already found an annotated tag as a candidate.
This works well as long as all branches eventually connect back
to a common root, but if the tags are found across branches
with no common ancestor

it can happen that the search on one branch terminates prematurely
because a tag was found on another, independent branch. This scenario
isn't quite as obscure as it sounds, since cloning with a limited
depth often introduces many independent "dead ends" into the commit
graph.
The help text of `git-describe` states pretty clearly that when
describing a commit D, the number appended to the emitted tag X should
correspond to the number of commits found by `git log X..D`.
Thus, this commit modifies the stopping condition to only abort
the search when only one branch is left to search *and* all current
best candidates are descendants from that branch.
For repositories with a single root, this condition is always
true: When the search is reduced to a single active branch, the
current commit must be an ancestor of *all* tag candidates. This
means that in the common case, this change will have no negative
performance impact since the same number of commits as before will
be traversed.

When developing a script, it can be painful to understand why Git thinks
something is outside the current repo, if the current repo isn't what
the user thinks it is. Since this can be tricky to diagnose, especially
in cases like submodules or nested worktrees, let's give the user a hint
about which repository is offended about that path.

The details of how credential helpers can be called or implemented were
originally covered in Documentation/technical/. Those are topics that
end users might care about (and we even referenced them in the
credentials manpage), but those docs typically don't ship as part of the
end user documentation, making them less useful.
This situation got slightly worse recently in f3b9055624 (credential:
move doc to credential.h, 2019-11-17), where we moved them into the C
header file, making them even harder to find.
So let's move put this information into the gitcredentials(7)
documentation, which is meant to describe the overall concepts of our
credential handling. This was already pointing to the API docs for these
concepts, so we can just include it inline instead.

The code to compute the commit-graph has been taught to use a more
robust way to tell if two object directories refer to the same
thing.

"git rebase -i" identifies existing commits in its todo file with
