Spell out “or” in the NAME line and simplify the leading sentence
in the DESCRIPTION.
Some other language cleanups, too.

Clarify that the GIT_NOTES_REWRITE_REFS environment variable
overrides both ‘[notes "rewrite"] <command>’ and ‘[notes] rewriteRef’.
Add explanations of GIT_NOTES_REWRITE_MODE and GIT_NOTES_REWRITE_REFS
to the ENVIRONMENT section.

The main description of display refs for notes should be in
git-log.1, where there is a chance to give a leisurely description
of all the ways they can be set, what they are used for, and so
on. The description in git-notes.1 is only meant to be a quick
reminder of how notes are used.
So simplify it.
Also add an entry for GIT_NOTES_DISPLAY_REF to the environment
section.

Copy the descriptions of configuration variables from git-config.1.
Once the descriptions have been ironed out, it would be nice to
refactor them to share text, but for now it is simplest to experiment
with separate copies.

stripspace/text-based formatting kicks in when specifying the notes
content with -m or -F, or when an editor is used to edit the notes.
To binary-safely create notes from files, the following construct is
required:
git notes add -C $(git hash-object -w <file>) <object>
Explain this trick (thanks, Johan!) in the manual. Add an ordinary
example, too, to keep this esoteric one company.

Separate the specification of the notes format exposed in
git-config.1 from the description of the option; or in other
words, move the explanation for what to expect to find at
refs/notes/commits from git-config.1 to git-notes.1.

To the displaying code, the only interesting thing about a notes ref
is that it has a tree of the required format. However, notes actually
have a history since they are recorded as successive commits.
Make a note about the existence of this history in the manpage, but
keep some doors open if we want to change the details.

Implement helper functions to load the rewriting config, and to
actually copy the notes. Also document the config.
Secondly, also implement an undocumented --for-rewrite=<cmd> option to
'git notes copy' which is used like --stdin, but also puts the
configuration for <cmd> into effect. It will be needed to support the
copying in git-rebase.

This implements a mass-copy command that takes a sequence of lines in
the format
<from-sha1> SP <to-sha1> [ SP <rest> ] LF
on stdin, and copies each <from-sha1>'s notes to the <to-sha1>. The
<rest> is ignored. The intent, of course, is that this can read the
same input that the 'post-rewrite' hook gets.
The copy_note() function is exposed for everyone's and in particular
the next commit's use.

With this patch, you can set notes.displayRef to a glob that points at
your favourite notes refs, e.g.,
[notes]
displayRef = refs/notes/*
Then git-log and friends will show notes from all trees.
Thanks to Junio C Hamano for lots of feedback, which greatly
influenced the design of the entire series and this commit in
particular.

This is useful for keeping notes to objects that are being rewritten by e.g.
'git commit --amend', 'git rebase', or 'git cherry-pick'.
"git notes copy <from> <to>" is in practice equivalent to
"git notes add -C $(git notes list <from>) <to>", although it is somewhat
more convenient for regular users.
"git notes copy" takes the same -f option as "git add", to overwrite existing
notes at the target (instead of aborting with an error message).
If the <from>-object has no notes, "git notes copy" will abort with an error
message.
The patch includes tests verifying correct behaviour of the new subcommand.

Inspired by the -c/-C options to "git commit", we teach these options to
"git notes add/append" to allow reuse of note objects.
With this patch in place, it is now easy to copy or move notes between
objects. For example, to copy object A's notes to object B:
git notes add [-f] -C $(git notes list A) B
To move instead of copying, you simply remove the notes from the source
object afterwards, e.g.:
git notes remove A

The semantics for "git notes edit -m/-F" overlap with those for
"git notes add -f", and the behaviour (i.e. overwriting existing
notes with the given message/file) is more intuitively captured
by (and better documented with) "git notes add -f".

"git notes append" is equivalent to "git notes edit" except that instead
of editing existing notes contents, you can only append to it. This is
useful for quickly adding annotations like e.g.:
git notes append -m "Acked-by: A U Thor <author@example.com>"
"git notes append" takes the same -m/-F options as "git notes add".
If there is no existing note to append to, "git notes append" is identical
to "git notes add" (i.e. it adds a new note).
The patch includes tests verifying correct behaviour of the new subcommand.

"git notes add" is identical to "git notes edit" except that instead of
editing existing notes for a given object, you can only add notes to an
object that currently has none. If "git notes add" finds existing notes
for the given object, the addition is aborted. However, if the new
-f/--force option is used, "git notes add" will _overwrite_ the existing
notes with the new notes contents.
If there is no existing notes for the given object. "git notes add" is
identical to "git notes edit" (i.e. it adds a new note).

"git notes list" will list all note objects in the current notes ref (in the
format "<note object> <annotated object>"). "git notes list <object>" will
list the note object associated with the given <object>, or fail loudly if
the given <object> has no associated notes.
If no arguments are given to "git notes", it defaults to the "list"
subcommand. This is for pseudo-compatibility with "git tag" and "git branch".

Notes can annotate arbitrary objects (not only commits), but this is not
reflected in the current documentation.
This patch rewrites the git-notes documentation to talk about 'objects'
instead of 'commits'. However, the discussion on commit notes and how
they are displayed by 'git log' is largely preserved.
Finally, I add myself to the Author/Documentation credits, since most of
the lines in the git-notes code and docs are blamed on me.

The builtin-ification includes some minor behavioural changes to the
command-line interface: It is no longer allowed to mix the -m and -F
arguments, and it is not allowed to use multiple -F options.
As part of the builtin-ification, we add the commit_notes() function
to the builtin API. This function (together with the notes.h API) can
be easily used from other builtins to manipulate the notes tree.
Also includes needed changes to t3301.

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.

The "-m" and "-F" options are already the established method
(in both git-commit and git-tag) to specify a commit/tag message
without invoking the editor. This patch teaches "git notes edit"
to respect the same options for specifying a notes message without
invoking the editor.
Multiple "-m" and/or "-F" options are concatenated as separate
paragraphs.
The patch also updates the "git notes" documentation and adds
selftests for the new functionality. Unfortunately, the added
selftests include a couple of lines with trailing whitespace
(without these the test will fail). This may cause git to warn
about "whitespace errors".
