The description of the user.signingkey option only mentioned its use
when creating a signed tag. Make it clear that is is also used when
creating signed commits.

Several uses of the '^' operator are being interpreted by asciidoc
as requests to show the following text as a superscript. In order
to fix this problem, use backticks (`) to quote the text of the
affected git command invocations.

The text contains two 'grep' invocations which include the 'start
of line' regular expression character '^'. Asciidoc mis-interprets
this use of '^' as a superscript request. In order to fix this
formatting problem, use backticks (`) to quote the text of the
affected 'grep' command invocations.

"git check-ignore" follows the same rule as "git add" and "git
status" in that the ignore/exclude mechanism does not take effect
on paths that are already tracked. With "--no-index" option, it

have been mistakenly added to the index.

"git status" now omits the prefix to make its output a comment in a
commit log editor, which is not necessary for human consumption.
We may want to tighten the output to omit unnecessary trailing blank
lines, but that does not have to be in the scope of this series.

status: add missing blank line after list of "other" files

Make "foo^{tag}" to peel a tag to itself, i.e. no-op., and fail if
"foo" is not a tag. "git rev-parse --verify v1.0^{tag}" would be a

We liberally use "committish" and "commit-ish" (and "treeish" and

glossary: define commit-ish (a.k.a. committish)

When the user types "git diff" outside a working tree, thinking he
is inside one, the current error message that is a single-liner
"usage: git diff --no-index <path> <path>" may not be sufficient to
make him realize the mistake. Add "Not a git repository" to the
error message when we fell into the "--no-index" mode without an
explicit command line option to instruct us to do so.

check-ignore currently shows how .gitignore rules would treat untracked
paths. Tracked paths do not generate useful output. This prevents
debugging of why a path became tracked unexpectedly unless that path is
first removed from the index with `git rm --cached <path>`.
The option --no-index tells the command to bypass the check for the
path being in the index and hence allows tracked paths to be checked
too.
Whilst this behaviour deviates from the characteristics of `git add` and
`git status` its use case is unlikely to cause any user confusion.
Test scripts are augmented to check this option against the standard
ignores to ensure correct behaviour.

Typing 'HEAD' is tedious, especially when we can use '@' instead.
The reason for choosing '@' is that it follows naturally from the
ref@op syntax (e.g. HEAD@{u}), except we have no ref, and no
operation, and when we don't have those, it makes sens to assume
'HEAD'.
So now we can use 'git show @~1', and all that goody goodness.
Until now '@' was a valid name, but it conflicts with this idea, so
let's make it invalid. Probably very few people, if any, used this name.

'git status' and 'git commit' can be told to also show the output of "git
submodule summary" by setting the "status.submodulesummary" config option.
But status and commit also honor the "diff.ignoreSubmodules" and the
"submodule.<name>.ignore" settings, which then disable the summary partly
or completely. This - and the fact that the last two settings do not
affect the "git submodule" commands at all - is not well documented.
Extend the documentation in those places where "status.submodulesummary",
"diff.ignoreSubmodules" and "submodule.<name>.ignore" are described to
better explain these dependencies.
