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.

This applies the shorten_unambiguous_ref function to the object name.
Default mode is controlled by core.warnAmbiguousRefs. Else it is given as
optional argument to --abbrev-ref={strict|loose}.
This should be faster than 'git for-each-ref --format="%(refname:short)" <ref>'
for single refs.

If literal text (asciidoc `...`) can be rendered in a differently from
normal text for each output format (man, HTML), then we do not need
extra quotes or other wrapping around inline literal text segments.
config.txt
Change '`...`' to `...`. In asciidoc, the single quotes provide
emphasis, literal text should be distintive enough.
Change "`...`" to `...`. These double quotes do not work if present
in the described config value, so drop them.
git-checkout.txt
Change "`...`" to `...` or `"..."`. All instances are command line
argument examples. One "`-`" becomes `-`. Two others are involve
curly braces, so move the double quotes inside the literal region to
indicate that they might need to be quoted on the command line of
certain shells (tcsh).
git-merge.txt
Change "`...`" to `...`. All instances are used to describe merge
conflict markers. The quotes should are not important.
git-rev-parse.txt
Change "`...`" to `...`. All instances are around command line
arguments where no in-shell quoting should be necessary.
gitcli.txt
Change `"..."` to `...`. All instances are around command line
examples or single command arguments. They do not semanticly belong
inside the literal text, and they are not needed outside it.
glossary-content.txt
user-manual.txt
Change "`...`" to `...`. All instances were around command lines.

The names of git commands are not meant to be entered at the
commandline; they are just names. So we render them in italics,
as is usual for command names in manpages.
Using
doit () {
perl -e 'for (<>) { s/\`(git-[^\`.]*)\`/'\''\1'\''/g; print }'
}
for i in git*.txt config.txt diff*.txt blame*.txt fetch*.txt i18n.txt \

Following what appears to be the predominant style, format
names of commands and commandlines both as `teletype text`.
While we're at it, add articles ("a" and "the") in some
places, italicize the name of the command in the manual page
synopsis line, and add a comma or two where it seems appropriate.

Since the git-* commands are not installed in $(bindir), using
"git-command <parameters>" in examples in the documentation is
not a good idea. On the other hand, it is nice to be able to
refer to each command using one hyphenated word. (There is no
escaping it, anyway: man page names cannot have spaces in them.)
This patch retains the dash in naming an operation, command,
program, process, or action. Complete command lines that can
be entered at a shell (i.e., without options omitted) are
made to use the dashless form.
The changes consist only of replacing some spaces with hyphens
and vice versa. After a "s/ /-/g", the unpatched and patched
versions are identical.

The rev-parse manpage introduces the branch@{date} syntax,
and mentions the reflog specifically. However, new users may
not be familiar with the distinction between the reflog and
the commit date, so let's help them out with a "you may be
interested in --until" pointer.

The OPTIONS section of a documentation file contains a list
of the options a git command accepts.
Currently there are several variants to describe the case that
different options (almost) do the same in the OPTIONS section.
Some are:
-f, --foo::
-f|--foo::
-f | --foo::
But AsciiDoc has the special form:
-f::
--foo::
This patch applies this form to the documentation of the whole git suite,
and removes useless em-dash prevention, so \--foo becomes --foo.

Asciidoc configuration:

# Inline macros.
# Backslash prefix required for escape processing.
# (?s) re flag for line spanning.

This default regex now matches explicit values, and unfortunately in this
case gitlink was being matched by just 'link', causing the wrong inline
macro template to be applied. By renaming the macro, we can avoid being
matched by the wrong regex.

The git-rev-parse manpage talks about the :$n:path notation (buried deep in
a list of other syntax) but it just says $n is a "stage number" -- someone
who is not familiar with the internals of git's merge implementation is
never going to be able to figure out that "1", "2", and "3" means.

setup_gdg is used as abbreviation for setup_git_directory_gently.
The work tree can be specified using the environment variable
GIT_WORK_TREE and the config option core.worktree (the environment
variable has precendence over the config option). Additionally
there is a command line option --work-tree which sets the
environment variable.
setup_gdg does the following now:
GIT_DIR unspecified
repository in .git directory
parent directory of the .git directory is used as work tree,
GIT_WORK_TREE is ignored
GIT_DIR unspecified
repository in cwd
GIT_DIR is set to cwd
see the cases with GIT_DIR specified what happens next and
also see the note below
GIT_DIR specified
GIT_WORK_TREE/core.worktree unspecified
cwd is used as work tree
GIT_DIR specified
GIT_WORK_TREE/core.worktree specified
the specified work tree is used
Note on the case where GIT_DIR is unspecified and repository is in cwd:
GIT_WORK_TREE is used but is_inside_git_dir is always true.
I did it this way because setup_gdg might be called multiple
times (e.g. when doing alias expansion) and in successive calls
setup_gdg should do the same thing every time.
Meaning of is_bare/is_inside_work_tree/is_inside_git_dir:
(1) is_bare_repository
A repository is bare if core.bare is true or core.bare is
unspecified and the name suggests it is bare (directory not
named .git). The bare option disables a few protective
checks which are useful with a working tree. Currently
this changes if a repository is bare:
updates of HEAD are allowed
git gc packs the refs
the reflog is disabled by default
(2) is_inside_work_tree
True if the cwd is inside the associated working tree (if there
is one), false otherwise.
(3) is_inside_git_dir
True if the cwd is inside the git directory, false otherwise.
Before this patch is_inside_git_dir was always true for bare
repositories.
When setup_gdg finds a repository git_config(git_default_config) is
always called. This ensure that is_bare_repository makes use of
core.bare and does not guess even though core.bare is specified.
inside_work_tree and inside_git_dir are set if setup_gdg finds a
repository. The is_inside_work_tree and is_inside_git_dir functions
will die if they are called before a successful call to setup_gdg.

Please see http://bugs.debian.org/404795:
In git-rev-parse(1), there is an example commit tree, which is used twice.
The explanation for this tree is very clear: B and C are commit *parents* to
A.
However, when the tree is reused as an example in the SPECIFYING RANGES, the
manpage author screws up and uses A as a commit *parent* to B and C! I.e.,
he inverts the tree.
And the fact that for this example you need to read the tree backwards is
not explained anywhere (and it would be confusing even if it was).

To name a commit, you can now say
$ git rev-parse ':/Initial revision of "git"'
and it will return the hash of the youngest commit whose
commit message (the oneline) begins with the given prefix.
For future extension, a leading exclamation mark is treated
specially: if you want to match a commit message starting with
a '!', just repeat the exclamation mark. So, to match a commit
which starts with '!Hello World', use
$ git show ':/!!Hello World'

This is a shorthand for "<rev> --not <rev>^@", i.e. "include
this commit but exclude any of its parents".
When a new file $F is introduced by revision $R, this notation
can be used to find a copy-and-paste from existing file in the
parents of that revision without annotating the ancestry of the
lines that were copied from:
git pickaxe -f -C $R^! -- $F
