Take Johannes Schindelin's suggestions for a further simplification of
the shared repository creation using git --bare init-db --shared, and
for a simplified cvsimport using an existing CVS working directory.
Also insert more man page references.

Modify cvs-migration.txt so it explains first how to develop against a
shared repository, then how to set up a shared repository, then how to
import a repository from cvs. Though this seems chronologically
backwards, it's still readable in this order, and it puts the more
commonly needed material closer to the front.
Remove the annotate/pickaxe section; perhaps it can find a place elsewhere
in the future. Remove most of the "why git is better than cvs" stuff from
the introduction.
Add some minor clarifications, including two that have come up several
times on the mailing list:
1. Recommend committing any changes before running pull.
2. Note that changes must be commited before they can be pushed.
Update the clone discussion to reflect the new --use-separate-remotes
default, and add a brief mention of git-cvsserver.

Rename the section titles to make the "how-to" content of the section
obvious. Also clarify that changes have to be commited before they can
be pushed.

It really is an important concept to grasp for people coming
from CVS. Even if it is briefly mentioned, it is not obvious
enough to sink in.

All should be clear enough, except perhaps committish / commitish.
I just kept the more-used one within the current docs.

Here's some changes to the cvs-migration.txt. As usual, in my attempt
to make things clearer someone may have found I've made them less so, or
I may have just gotten something wrong; so any review is welcomed.
I can break up this sort of thing into smaller steps if preferred, the
monolothic patch is just a bit simpler for me for this sort of
thing.
I moved the material describing shared repository management from
core-tutorial.txt to cvs-migration.txt, where it seems more appropriate,
and combined two sections to eliminate some redundancy.
I also revised the earlier sections of cvs-migration.txt, mainly trying
to make it more concise.
I've left the last section of cvs-migration.txt (on CVS annotate
alternatives) alone for now.

The fixes focuses on improving the HTML output. Most noteworthy:
- Fix the Makefile to also make various *.html files depend on
included files.
- Consistently use 'NOTE: ...' instead of '[ ... ]' for additional
info.
- Fix ending '::' for description lists in OPTION section etc.
- Fix paragraphs in description lists ending up as preformated text.
- Always use listingblocks (preformatted text wrapped in lines with -----)
for examples that span empty lines, so they are put in only one HTML
block.
- Use '1.' instead of '(1)' for numbered lists.
- Fix linking to other GIT docs.
- git-rev-list.txt: put option descriptions in an OPTION section.

AsciiDoc replace '--' with em-dash (—) by default. em-dash
looks a lot like a single long dash and it's very confusing when
we are talking about command options.
Section 21.2.8 'Replacements' of AsciiDoc's User Guide says that a
backslash in front of double dash prevent the replacement. This
patch does just that.

- Yes, push does not lock, but that does not mean it is not
meant for multi-user repository. It just ought to perform
correctly without using locks.
- Let's not pretend we know _the_ right way.

Slightly expand the cvsimport description, and make a couple of syntax
edits.
The way I figure it, telling someone why cvsimport is taking so long
will improve their overall user experience. :-)

We should add a lot more information about how you copy repositories,
pulling and pushing, merging etc. Oh, well. I'm not exactly known for
my documentation skills. Maybe somebody else will help me..
