clone-pack had some logic to accept subset of remote refs from
the command line and clone from there. However, it was never
used in practice and its problems were not found out so far.
This commit changes the command to output the object names of
refs to the standard output instead of making a clone of the
remote repository when explicit <head> parameters are given; the
output format is the same as fetch-pack.
The traditional behaviour of cloning the whole repository by
giving no explicit <head> parameters stays the same.

Recommend git over ssh direct to master.kernel.org, instead of
going over rsync to public machines, since this is meant to be a
procedure for kernel subsystem maintainers.
Also fix an obvious typo.

This allows git-am to accept single-message files as well as mboxes.
Unlike the previous version, this one doesn't need to be explicitly told
which one it is; rather, it looks to see if the first line is a From
line and uses it to select mbox mode or not.
I moved the logic to do all this into git-mailsplit, which got a new
user interface as result, although the old interface is still available
for backwards compatibility.
[jc: applied with two obvious fixes.]

Talk about the following as well:
* git fetch --tags
* Use of "git push" as a one-man distributed development vehicle.
* Show example of remotes file for pulling and pushing.
* Annotate git-shell setup.
* Using Carl's update hook in a CVS-style shared repository.

The initial section of tutorial was too heavy on internal
workings for the first-time readers, so rewrite the introductory
section of git(7) to start with "not learning core git commands"
section and refer them to README to grasp the basic concepts,
then Everyday to give overview with task/role oriented examples
for minimum set of commands, and finally the tutorial.
Also add to existing note in the tutorial that many too
technical descriptions can be skipped by a casual reader.
I initially started to review the tutorial, with the objective
of ripping out the detailed technical information altogether,
but I found that the level of details in the initial couple of
sections that talk about refs and the object database in a
hands-on fashion was about rigth, and left all of them there. I
feel that reading about fsck-index and repack is too abstract
without being aware of these directories and files.

Explicit <head> arguments to git-prune replaces, instead of
extends, the list of heads used for reachability analysis by
fsck-objects. By giving a subset of heads by mistake, objects
reachable only from other heads can be removed, resulting in a
corrupted repository.
This commit stops replacing the list of heads, and makes the
command line arguments to add to them instead for safety.

Not replacing but always including our own refs may be more
desirable (and unarguably much safer), but at the same time I
have a suspicion that that might be forbidding a useful usage I
haven't thought of, so...

The new merge world order tells the merge strategies to leave
the cache unmerged and store the automerge result in the working
tree if automerge is not clean. This was done for the resolve
strategy and recursive strategy when no rename is involved, but
recording a conflicting merge in the rename case could not
easily be done by the recursive strategy.
This commit adds a new input format, in addition to the exsting
two, to "update-index --index-info".
(1) mode SP sha1 TAB path
The first format is what "git-apply --index-info"
reports, and used to reconstruct a partial tree
that is used for phony merge base tree when falling
back on 3-way merge.
(2) mode SP type SP sha1 TAB path
The second format is to stuff git-ls-tree output
into the index file.
(3) mode SP sha1 SP stage TAB path
This format is to put higher order stages into the
index file and matches git-ls-files --stage output.
To place a higher stage entry to the index, the path should
first be removed by feeding a mode=0 entry for the path, and
then feeding necessary input lines in the (3) format.
For example, starting with this index:
$ git ls-files -s
100644 8a1218a1024a212bb3db30becd860315f9f3ac52 0 frotz
$ git update-index --index-info ;# interactive session -- input follows...
0 0000000000000000000000000000000000000000 frotz
100644 8a1218a1024a212bb3db30becd860315f9f3ac52 1 frotz
100755 8a1218a1024a212bb3db30becd860315f9f3ac52 2 frotz
The first line of the input feeds 0 as the mode to remove the
path; the SHA1 does not matter as long as it is well formatted.
Then the second and third line feeds stage 1 and stage 2 entries
for that path. After the above, we would end up with this:
$ git ls-files -s
100644 8a1218a1024a212bb3db30becd860315f9f3ac52 1 frotz
100755 8a1218a1024a212bb3db30becd860315f9f3ac52 2 frotz
This completes the groundwork for the new merge world order.

Mention documentation pages that talk about update and
