Modify various document (man page) files to explain
in more detail what --signoff means.
This was inspired by https://lwn.net/Articles/669976/ where
paulj noted, "adding [the] '-s' argument to [a] git commit
doesn't really mean you have even heard of the DCO...".
Extending git's documentation will make it easier to argue
that developers understood --signoff when they use it.

Very small number of options take a parameter that is optional
(which is not a great UI element as they can only appear at the end
of the command line). Add notice to documentation of each and
every one of them.
* mm/keyid-docs:
Documentation: explain optional arguments better
Documentation/grep: fix documentation of -O
Documentation: use 'keyid' consistently, not 'key-id'
|
|
Improve the documentation of commands taking optional arguments in two
ways:
* Documents the behavior of '-O' (for grep) and '-S' (for commands
creating commits) when used without the optional argument.
* Document the syntax of these options.
For the second point, the behavior is documented in gitcli(7), but it is
easy for users to miss, and hard for the same user to understand why e.g.
"git status -u no" does not work.
Document this explicitly in the documentation of each short option having
an optional argument: they are the most error prone since there is no '='
sign between the option and its argument.

This reverts commit d96a275b91bae1800cd43be0651e886e7e042a17.
It used to be possible to apply a patch series with "git am mbox"
and then only after seeing a failure, switch to three-way mode via
"git am -3" (no other options or arguments). The commit being
reverted broke this workflow.

It is not obvious when looking at a new command what hooks will affect
it. Add a HOOKS section to the git-am(1) page, imitating
git-commit(1), to make it easier for people to discover e.g. the
applypatch-msg hook that can implement a custom subject-mangling
strategy (e.g., removing a "bug #nnnn:" prefix introduced by a bug
tracker).

git-am could pass -k to mailinfo, but not -b. Introduce an option
that does so. We change the meaning of the 'keep' state file, but are
careful not to cause a problem unless you downgrade in the middle of
an 'am' run.
This uncovers a bug in mailinfo -b, hence the failing test.

git-am.txt: advertise 'git am --abort' instead of 'rm .git/rebase-apply'
bisect: visualize with git-log if gitk is unavailable
|
|
'git am --abort' is around for quite a long time now, and users should
normally not poke around inside the .git directory, yet the
documentation of 'git am' still recommends the following:
... if you decide to start over from scratch,
run `rm -f -r .git/rebase-apply` ...
Suggest 'git am --abort' instead.
It's not quite the same as the original, because 'git am --abort' will
restore the original branch, while simply removing '.git/rebase-apply'
won't, but that's rather a thinko in the original wording, because
that won't actually "start over _from scratch_".

The point of these sections is generally to:
1. Give credit where it is due.
2. Give the reader an idea of where to ask questions or
file bug reports.
But they don't do a good job of either case. For (1), they
are out of date and incomplete. A much more accurate answer
can be gotten through shortlog or blame. For (2), the
correct contact point is generally git@vger, and even if you
wanted to cc the contact point, the out-of-date and
incomplete fields mean you're likely sending to somebody
useless.
So let's drop the fields entirely from all manpages except
git(1) itself. We already point people to the mailing list
for bug reports there, and we can update the Authors section
to give credit to the major contributors and point to
shortlog and blame for more information.
Each page has a "This is part of git" footer, so people can
follow that to the main git manpage.

c2ca1d7 (Allow mailsplit (and hence git-am) to handle mails with CRLF
line-endings, 2009-08-04) fixed "git mailsplit" to help people with
MUA whose output from save-as command uses CRLF as line terminators by
stripping CR at the end of lines.
However, when you know you are feeding output from "git format-patch"
directly to "git am", and especially when your contents have CR at the
end of line, such stripping is undesirable. To help such a use case,
teach --keep-cr option to "git am" and pass that to "git mailinfo".

The documentation was quite inconsistent when spelling 'git cmd' if it
only refers to the program, not to some specific invocation syntax:
both 'git-cmd' and 'git cmd' spellings exist.
The current trend goes towards dashless forms, and there is precedent
in 647ac70 (git-svn.txt: stop using dash-form of commands.,
2009-07-07) to actively eliminate the dashed variants.
Replace 'git-cmd' with 'git cmd' throughout, except where git-shell,
git-cvsserver, git-upload-pack, git-receive-pack, and
git-upload-archive are concerned, because those really live in the
$PATH.

git-am and git-rebase are talkative scripts. Teach them to be quiet when
told, allowing them to speak only when they fail or experience errors.
The quiet option is maintained when git-am or git-rebase fails to apply
a patch. This means subsequent --resolved, --continue, --skip, --abort
invocations will be quiet if the original invocation was quiet.
Drop a handful of >&2 redirection; the rest of the program sends all the
info messages to stdout, not to stderr.

This new option tells 'git-am' to ignore the date header field
recorded in the format-patch output. The commits will have the
timestamp when they are created instead.
You can work a lot in one day to accumulate many changes, but
apply and push to the public repository only some of them at
the end of the first day. Then next day you can spend all your
working hours reading comics or chatting with your coworkers,
and apply your remaining patches from the previous day using
this option to pretend that you have been working at the end
of the day.

Thanks to a200337 (git-am: propagate -C<n>, -p<n> options as well,
2008-12-04) and commits around it, "git am" is equipped to correctly

failure and restart.

With git-am, it sounds awkward to have the patches in ".git/rebase/",
