Command mode options that the user can choose one among many are
listed like this in the documentation:

They are listed on a single line and in parenthesis, because they
are not optional.
But documentation pages for some commands deviate from this norm.
Fix the merge and rebase docs to match this style.

The commit-graph feature began with a long list of planned
benefits, most of which are now complete. The future work
section has only a few items left.
As for making more algorithms aware of generation numbers,
some are only waiting for generation number v2 to ensure the
performance matches the existing behavior using commit date.
It is unlikely that we will ever send a commit-graph file
as part of the protocol, since we would need to verify the
data, and that is expensive. If we want to start trusting
remote content, then that item can be investigated again.
While there is more work to be done on the feature, having
a section of the docs devoted to a TODO list is wasteful and
hard to keep up-to-date.

One can see that an alias that begins with a non-command first word,
such as `loud-rebase = -c commit.verbose=true rebase`, is permitted.
However, this isn't immediately obvious to users as alias instances
typically begin with a command.
Document the fact that an alias can begin with a non-command first word
so that users will be able to discover that this is a feature.

As many CI/CD tools don't allow to control command line options when
executing `git tag` command, a default value in the configuration file
will allow to enforce tag signing if required.
The new config-file option tag.gpgSign is added to define default behavior
of tag signings. To override default behavior the command line option -s,
--sign and --no-sign can be used:
$ git tag -m "commit message"
will generate a GPG signed tag if tag.gpgSign option is true, while
$ git tag --no-sign -m "commit message"
will skip the signing step.

Improve and complete the list of required email related Perl modules,
clarifying which are core Perl modules and remove Net::SMTP::SSL.
git-send-email uses the TLS support in the Net::SMTP core module from
recent versions of Perl. Documenting the minimum version is complex
because of separate numbering for Perl (5.21.5~169), Net:SMTP (2.34)
and libnet (3.01). Version numbers from commit:
bfbfc9a953 ("send-email: Net::SMTP::starttls was introduced in v2.34",
2017-05-31).
Users of older Perl versions without Net::SMTP::SSL installed will get a
clear error message.

If someone wants to use as a filter a sparse file that is in the
repository, something like "--filter=sparse:oid=<ref>:<path>"
already works.
So 'sparse:path' is only interesting if the sparse file is not in
the repository. In this case though the current implementation has
a big security issue, as it makes it possible to ask the server to
read any file, like for example /etc/password, and to explore the
filesystem, as well as individual lines of files.
If someone is interested in using a sparse file that is not in the
repository as a filter, then at the minimum a config option, such
as "uploadpack.sparsePathFilter", should be implemented first to
restrict the directory from which the files specified by
'sparse:path' can be read.
For now though, let's just disable 'sparse:path' filters.

The availability of these pattern selections is not obvious from
the man pages, as per mail thread <87lfz3vcbt.fsf@evledraar.gmail.com>.
Provide examples.
Re-order the `git branch` synopsis to emphasise the `--list <pattern>`
pairing. Also expand and reposition the `all/remotes` options.
Split the over-long description into three parts so that the <pattern>
description can be seen.
Clarify that the `all/remotes` options require the --list if patterns
are to be used.
Add examples of listing remote tracking branches that match a pattern,
including `git for-each-ref` which has more options.
Improve the -a/-r warning message. The message confused this author
as the combined -a and -r options had not been given, though a pattern
had. Specifically guide the user that maybe they needed the --list
option to enable a remote branch pattern selection.

Fix a regression in my recent 3494dfd3ee ("send-email: do defaults ->
config -> getopt in that order", 2019-05-09). I missed that the
$identity variable needs to be extracted from the command-line before
we do the config reading, as it determines which config variable we
should read first. See [1] for the report.
The sendemail.identity feature was added back in
34cc60ce2b ("send-email: Add support for SSL and SMTP-AUTH",
2007-09-03), there were no tests to assert that it worked properly.
So let's fix both the regression, and add some tests to assert that
this is being parsed properly. While I'm at it I'm adding a
--no-identity option to go with --[to|cc|bcc] variable, since the
semantics are similar. It's like to/cc/bcc except that unlike those we
don't support multiple identities, but we could now easily add it
support for it if anyone cares.
In just fixing the --identity command-line parsing bug I discovered
that a narrow fix to that wouldn't do. In read_config() we had a state
machine that would only set config values if they weren't set already,
and thus by proxy we wouldn't e.g. set "to" based on sendemail.to if
we'd seen sendemail.gmail.to before, with --identity=gmail.
I'd modified some of the relevant code in 3494dfd3ee, but just
reverting to that wouldn't do, since it would bring back the
regression fixed in that commit.
Refactor read_config() do what we actually mean here. We don't want to
set a given sendemail.VAR if a sendemail.$identity.VAR previously set
it. The old code was conflating this desire with the hardcoded
defaults for these variables, and as discussed in 3494dfd3ee that was
never going to work. Instead pass along the state of whether an
identity config set something before, as distinguished from the state
of the default just being false, or the default being a non-bool or
true (e.g. --transferencoding).
I'm still not happy with the test coverage here, e.g. there's nothing
testing sendemail.smtpEncryption, but I only have so much time to fix
this code.

Convert option_commit to tristate, representing the states of
'default/untouched', 'enabled-by-cli', 'disabled-by-cli'. With this in
place, check whether option_commit was enabled by cli when squashing a
merge. If so, error out, as this is not supported.
Previously, when --squash was supplied, 'option_commit' was silently
dropped. This could have been surprising to a user who tried to override
the no-commit behavior of squash using --commit explicitly.
Add a note to the --squash option for git-merge to clarify the
incompatibility, and add a test case to t7600-merge.sh

Remove a reference to git-cvsimport in the intro. As can be seen from

irrelevant trivia at this point.

The descriptions of the GIT_TRACE2* environment variables link to the
technical docs for further details on the supported values. However,
a link like this only really works if the docs are viewed in a browser
and the full documentation is available. OTOH, in 'man git' there are
no links to conveniently click on, and distro-shipped git packages
tend to include only the man pages, while the technical docs and the
docs in html format are in a separate 'git-doc' package.
So let's describe the supported values to make the manpage more
self-contained, but still keep the references to the technical docs
because the details of the SID, and the JSON and perf output formats
are definitely beyond the scope of 'man git'.
