The refspec format description was a mix of regexp and BNF, making it
very difficult to read. The format was also wrong: it did not show
that each part of a refspec is optional in different situations.
Rather than having a confusing grammar, just present the format in
informal prose.

* maint:

Fail properly when cloning from invalid HTTP URL
Conflicts:
Documentation/git-push.txt

I see quite a few pages on k.org site, e.g.
http://www.kernel.org/pub/software/scm/git/docs/git-rerere.html
(scroll down to find "After this test merge")
are misformatted to lose teletype text '+' that is followed by a comma,
and turns the following paragraph all typeset in teletype.
This patch seems to fix the issue at the site (meaning, with the
particular vintage of asciidoc and docbook toolchain), without breaking
things with the version I have at my primary development machine, but
wider testing is very much appreciated.
After this patch,
git grep '`+`,' -- Documentation
should report noting.

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 \
merge*.txt pretty*.txt pull*.txt rev*.txt urls*.txt
do
doit <"$i" >"$i+" && mv "$i+" "$i"
done
git diff
.

Alter the description of <repository> in OPTIONS section to
explicitly state that a 'remote name' is accepted.
Rewrite REMOTES section to more directly identify the
different kinds of remote-name permitted.

This uses "git-apply --whitespace=strip" to fix whitespace errors that have
crept in to our source files over time. There are a few files that need
to have trailing whitespaces (most notably, test vectors). The results
still passes the test, and build result in Documentation/ area is unchanged.

The sections on git urls and remotes files in the git-fetch,
git-pull, and git-push manpages seem long enough to be worth a
manpage section of their own.

The push and pull man pages include a bunch of shared text from
pull-fetch-param.txt. This simplifies maintenance somewhat, but
there's actually quite a bit of text that applies only to one or the
other.
So, separate out the push- and pull/fetch-specific text into
pull-fetch-param.txt and git-push.txt, then include the largest chunk
of common stuff (the description of protocols and url's) from
urls.txt. That cuts some irrelevant stuff from the man pages without
making us duplicate too much.

Dropped a fair amount of reundant code in favour of the library code
in path.c
Added option --strict-paths with documentation, with backwards
compatibility for whitelist entries with symlinks.
Everything that worked earlier still works insofar as I have
remembered testing it.

You could also spell it ssh://host:/path/to/repo (or git+ssh,
ssh+git), but without method:// is shorter to type, so mention
only that one in the short and sweet list.
Noticed by Pasky.

Josef Weidendorfer points out that git-clone documentation does not
mention the initial copying of remote branch heads into corresponding
local branches. Also clarify the purpose of the ref mappings description
in the "remotes" file and recommended workflow.

We do not accept multiple <refspecs> on one Pull:/Push: line
right now (we could lift this tentative workaround for the
broken refnames), but we have always accepted multiple such
lines, so use that form in the examples and discussion.
Also explicitly mention that Octopus is made only with an
explicit command line request and never from Pull: lines.
Add a couple of cross references.

Clarified and added notes for pull/push refspecs.
Converted to back-ticks for literal text examples.
[jc: Also fixed git-pull description that still talked about its
calling git-resolve or git-octopus (we do not anymore; instead
we just call git-merge). BTW, I am reasonably impressed by how
well "git-am -3" applied this patch, which had some conflicts
because I've updated the documentation somewhat.]

The documentation was lazily sharing the argument description across these
commands.
Lazy may be a way of life, but that does not justify confusing others ;-).

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.
