Oftentimes, patches created by git format-patch will be stored in
version control or compared with diff. In these cases, two otherwise
identical patches can have different commit hashes, leading to diff
noise. Teach git format-patch a --zero-commit option that instead
produces an all-zero hash to avoid this diff noise.

"git checkout" did not follow the usual "--[no-]progress"
convention and implemented only "--quiet" that is essentially
a superset of "--no-progress". Extend the command to support the
usual "--[no-]progress".

In addition to matching stripped refs, one can now add hideRefs
patterns that the full (unstripped) ref is matched against. To
distinguish between stripped and full matches, those new patterns
must be prefixed with a circumflex (^).
This commit also removes support for the undocumented and unintended
hideRefs settings ".have" (suppressing all "have" lines) and
"capabilities^{}" (suppressing the capabilities line).

Right now, there is no clear definition of how transfer.hideRefs should
behave when a namespace is set. Explain that hideRefs prefixes match
stripped names in that case. This is how hideRefs patterns are currently
handled in receive-pack.

Under normal circumstances, and like other git commands,
git checkout will write progress info to stderr if
attached to a terminal. This option allows progress
to be forced even if not using a terminal. Also,
progress can be skipped if using option --no-progress.

"git clone --dissociate" used to require that "--reference" was

borrows objects from another without using "--reference", namely
with "clone --local" from a repository that borrows objects from
other repositories.

Git-merge-file is documented to return one of three exit
codes:
- zero means the merge was successful
- a negative number means an error occurred
- a positive number indicates the number of conflicts
Unfortunately, this all gets stuffed into an 8-bit return
code. Which means that if you have 256 conflicts, this wraps
to zero, and the merge appears to succeed (and commits a
blob full of conflict-marker cruft!).
This patch clamps the return value to a maximum of 127,
which we should be able to safely represent everywhere. This
also leaves 128-255 for other values. Shells (and some parts
of git) will typically represent signal death as 128 plus
the signal number. And negative values are typically coerced
to an 8-bit unsigned value (so "return -1" ends up as 255).
Technically negative returns have the same problem (e.g.,
"-256" wraps back to 0), but this is not a problem in
practice, as the only negative value we use is "-1".

perform a fast-forward merge, but it should the other way around.

Again, we do not usually process release notes with AsciiDoc, but it
is better to be consistent.
This incidentally reveals breakages left by an ancient 5e00439f
(Documentation: build html for all files in technical and howto,
2012-10-23). The index-format documentation was originally written
to be read as straight text without formatting and when the commit
forced everything in Documentation/ to go through AsciiDoc, it did
not do any adjustment--hence the double-dashes will be seen in the
resulting text that is rendered as preformatted fixed-width without
converted into em-dashes.

The "--reference" option is not the only way to provide a repository
to borrow objects from. A repository that borrows from another
repository can be cloned with "clone --local" and the resulting
repository will borrow from the same repository, which the user
may want to "--dissociate" from.

Even though AsciiDoc is more lenient when deciding if an underline
is for the contents on the previous line to find section headers, we
should match the length of them for other formatters to help them.

Asciidoctor is stricter than AsciiDoc when deciding if underlining
is a section title or the start of preformatted text. Make the
length of the underlining match the text to ensure that it renders
correctly in all implementations.

"git gc" is safe to run anytime only because it has the built-in
grace period to protect young objects. In order to run with no

The synopsys text and the usage string of subcommands that read list
of things from the standard input are often shown like this:
git gostak [--distim] < <list-of-doshes>
This is problematic in a number of ways:
* The way to use these commands is more often to feed them the
output from another command, not feed them from a file.
* Manual pages outside Git, commands that operate on the data read
from the standard input, e.g "sort", "grep", "sed", etc., are not
described with such a "< redirection-from-file" in their synopsys
text. Our doing so introduces inconsistency.
* We do not insist on where the output should go, by saying
git gostak [--distim] < <list-of-doshes> > <output>
* As it is our convention to enclose placeholders inside <braket>,
the redirection operator followed by a placeholder filename
becomes very hard to read, both in the documentation and in the
help text.
Let's clean them all up, after making sure that the documentation
clearly describes the modes that take information from the standard
input and what kind of things are expected on the input.
