Jari Aalto noticed a handful places in git-daemon documentation
that need to be improved.
* --inetd makes --pid-file to be ignored, in addition to --user
and --group
* receive-pack service was not described at all. We should, if
only to warn about the security implications of it.
* There was no example of per repository configuration.

* jc/logsemantics:
"format-patch --root rev" is the way to show everything.
Porcelain level "log" family should recurse when diffing.

As pointed out by Linus, these notations require the endpoints
given by the end user to be commits. Clarify.
Also, three-dots in AsciiDoc are turned into ellipses unless
quoted with bq. Be careful.

We used to trigger the special case "things not in origin"
semantics only when one and only one positive ref is given, and
no number (e.g. "git format-patch -4 origin") was specified, and
used the general revision range semantics for everything else.
This narrows the special case a bit more, by making:
git format-patch --root this_version
to show everything that leads to the named commit.
More importantly, document the two different semantics better.
The generic revision range semantics came later and bolted on
without being clearly documented.

"GIT_DIR=some.where git --bare cmd" and worse yet
"git --git-dir=some.where --bare cmd" were very confusing. They
both ignored git-dir specified, and instead made $cwd as GIT_DIR.
This changes --bare not to override existing GIT_DIR.
This has been like this for a long time. Let's hope nobody sane
relied on this insane behaviour.

The immediate motivation for writing this section was to explain the
various places ignore patterns could be used. However, I still think
.gitignore is the case most people will want to learn about first. It
also makes it a bit more concrete to introduce ignore patterns in the
context of .gitignore first. And the existance of gitignore(5) relieves
the pressure to explain it all here.
So, stick to the .gitignore example, with only a brief mention of the
others, explain the syntax only by example, and leave the rest to
gitignore(5).

The git-rev-parse manpage talks about the :$n:path notation (buried deep in
a list of other syntax) but it just says $n is a "stage number" -- someone
who is not familiar with the internals of git's merge implementation is
never going to be able to figure out that "1", "2", and "3" means.

The --walk-reflogs logic and the --reverse logic are completely
incompatible with one another. Attempting to use both at the same
time leads to confusing results that sometimes violates the user's
formatting options or ignores the user's request to see the reflog
message and timestamp.
Unfortunately the implementation of both of these features is glued
onto the side of the revision walking machinary in such a way that
they are probably not going to be easy to make them compatible with
each other. Rather than offering the user confusing results we are
better off bailing out with an error message until such a time as
the implementations can be refactored to be compatible.

By default 'git reflog show' will show the reflog of 'HEAD' and not
the reflog of the current branch. This is most likely due to the
work done a while ago as part of the detached HEAD series to allow
HEAD to have its own reflog independent of each branch's reflog.
Since 'git reflog show' is really just an obscure alias for 'git
log -g --abbrev-commit --pretty=oneline' it should behave the same
way and its documentation should match.

The existing checkpoint command is very useful to force fast-import
to dump the branches out to disk so that standard Git tools can
access them and the objects they refer to. However there was not a
way to know when fast-import had finished executing the checkpoint
and it was safe to read those refs.
The progress command can be used to make fast-import output any
message of the frontend's choosing to standard out. The frontend
can scan for these messages using select() or poll() to monitor a
pipe connected to the standard output of fast-import.

For the same reasons as the prior change we want to allow frontends
to omit the trailing LF that usually delimits commands. In some
cases these just make the input stream more verbose looking than
it needs to be, and its just simpler for the frontend developer to
get started if our parser is slightly more lenient about where an
LF is required and where it isn't.
To make this optional LF feature work we now have to buffer up to one
line of input in command_buf. This buffering can happen if we look
at the current input command but don't recognize it at this point
in the code. In such a case we need to "unget" the entire line,
but we cannot depend upon the stdio library to let us do ungetc()
for that many characters at once.

A few fast-import frontend developers have found it odd that we
require the LF following a `data` command, especially in the exact
byte count format. Technically we don't need this LF to parse
the stream properly, but having it here does make the stream more
readable to humans. We can easily make the LF optional by peeking
at the next byte available from the stream and pushing it back into
the buffer if its not LF.

Several frontend developers have asked that some form of stream
comments be permitted within a fast-import data stream. This way
they can include information from their own frontend program about
where specific data was taken from in the source system, or about
a decision that their frontend may have made while creating the
fast-import data stream.
This change introduces comments in the Bourne-shell/Tcl/Perl style.
Lines starting with '#' are ignored, up to and including the LF.
Unlike the above mentioned three languages however we do not look for
and ignore leading whitespace. This just simplifies the definition
of the comment format and the code that parses them.
To make comments work we had to stop using read_next_command() within
cmd_data() and directly invoke read_line() during the inline variant
of the function. This is necessary to retain any lines of the
input data that might otherwise look like a comment to fast-import.

Apply "Subproject commit HEX" changes produced by git-diff.
As usual in the current git, only the superproject itself is actually
modified (possibly creating empty directories for new submodules).
Any checked-out submodule is left untouched and is not required to
be up-to-date.
