When --preserve-merges was deprecated in 427c3bd28a a sentence
was introduced describing the difference between --rebase-merges and
--preserve-merges which is a little unclear and difficult to parse.
This patch improves readability while retaining original meaning.

git-shortlog, like git-log, supports options to filter what commits are
used to generate the log. These options come from git-rev-list, and are
documented in Documentation/rev-list-options.txt. Include those options
in shortlog's documentation.
But since rev-list-options.txt contains some other options that don't
really apply in the context of shortlog (like diff formatting, commit
ordering, etc), add a switch in rev-list-options.txt that excludes those
sections from the shortlog documentation. To be more specific, include
only the "Commit Limiting" and "History Simplification" sections.

GitGitGadget, a handy tool for converting pull requests against Git into
Git-mailing-list-friendly-patch-emails, requires as anti-spam that all
new users be "/allow"ed by an existing user once before it will do
anything for that new user. While this tutorial explained that
mechanism, it did not give much hint on how to go about finding someone
to allow your new pull request. So, teach our new GitGitGadget user
where to look for someone who can add their name to the list.
The advice in this patch is based on the advice proposed for
GitGitGadget: https://github.com/gitgitgadget/gitgitgadget/pull/138

Indicate that the user needs some dependencies before the build will run
happily on their machine; this dependency list doesn't seem to be made
clear anywhere else in the project documentation. Then, so the user can
be certain any build failures are due to their code and not their
environment, perform a build on a clean checkout of 'master'. Also, move
the note about build parallelization up here, so that it appears next to
the very first build invocation in the tutorial.

Users can discover commands and their brief usage by running 'git help
git' or 'git help -a'; both of these pages list all available commands
based on the contents of 'command-list.txt'. That means adding a new
command there is an important part of the new command process, and
therefore belongs in the new command tutorial.
Teach new users how to add their command, and include a brief overview
of how to discover which attributes to place on the command in the list.
Since 'git psuh' prints some workspace info, doesn't modify anything,
and is targeted as a user-facing porcelain command, list it as a
'mainporcelain' and 'info' command.
As the usage string is required to generate this documentation, don't
add the command to the list until after the usage string is added to the
tutorial.

While `git update-index` mostly ignores paths referring to index entries
whose skip-worktree bit is set, in b4d1690df11 (Teach Git to respect
skip-worktree bit (reading part), 2009-08-20), for reasons that are not
entirely obvious, the `--remove` option was made special: it _does_
remove index entries even if their skip-worktree bit is set.
Seeing as this behavior has been in place for a decade now, it does not
make sense to change it.
However, in preparation for fixing a bug in `git stash` where it
pretends that skip-worktree entries have actually been removed, we need
a mode where `git update-index` leaves all skip-worktree entries alone,
even if the `--remove` option was passed.

As per Wikipedia, "In current technical usage, for one to state that a
feature is deprecated is merely a recommendation against using it." It
is thus contradictory to claim that something is not "officially
deprecated" and then to immediately state that we are both discouraging
its use and pointing people elsewhere.

We recently regressed our rendering with Asciidoctor of "literal"
elements in our manpages, i.e, stuff we have placed within `backticks`
in order to render as monospace. In particular, we lost the bold
rendering of such literal text.
The culprit is f6461b82b9 ("Documentation: fix build with Asciidoctor 2",
2019-09-15), where we switched from DocBook 4.5 to DocBook 5 with
Asciidoctor. As part of the switch, we started using the namespaced
DocBook XSLT stylesheets rather than the non-namespaced ones. (See
f6461b82b9 for more details on why we changed to the namespaced ones.)
The bold literals are implemented as an XSLT snippet <xsl:template
match="literal">...</xsl:template>. Now that we use namespaces, this
doesn't pick up our literals like it used to.
Match for "d:literal" in addition to just "literal", after defining the
d namespace. ("d" is what
http://docbook.sourceforge.net/release/xsl-ns/current/manpages/docbook.xsl
uses.) Note that we need to keep matching without the namespace for
AsciiDoc.
This boldness was introduced by 5121a6d993 ("Documentation: option to
render literal text as bold for manpages", 2009-03-27) and made the
default in 5945717009 ("Documentation: bold literals in man",
2016-05-31).
One reason this was not caught in review is that our doc-diff tool diffs
without any boldness, i.e., it "only" compares text. As pointed out by
Peff in review of this patch, one can use `MAN_KEEP_FORMATTING=1
./doc-diff <...>`
This has been optically tested with AsciiDoc 8.6.10, Asciidoctor 1.5.5
and Asciidoctor 2.0.10. I've also verified that doc-diff produces the
empty output for all three programs, as expected, and that with the
MAN_KEEP_FORMATTING trick, AsciiDoc yields no diff, whereas with
Asciidoctor, we get bold literals, just like we want.

Within diff_no_index(), we have the following:
revs->diffopt.flags.exit_with_status = 1;
...
/*
* The return code for --no-index imitates diff(1):
* 0 = no changes, 1 = changes, else error
*/
return diff_result_code(&revs->diffopt, 0);
Which means when `git diff` is run in `--no-index` mode, `--exit-code`
is implied. However, the documentation for this is missing in
git-diff.txt.
Add a note about how `--exit-code` is implied in the `--no-index`
documentation to cover this documentation blindspot.

In many projects the number of contributors is low enough that users know
each other and the full email address doesn't need to be displayed.
Displaying only the author's username saves a lot of columns on the screen.
Existing 'e/E' (as in "%ae" and "%aE") placeholders would show the
author's address as "prarit@redhat.com", which would waste columns to show
the same domain-part for all contributors when used in a project internal
to redhat. Introduce 'l/L' placeholders that strip '@' and domain part from
the e-mail address.

command-list.txt when commit 1b81d8c (help: use command-list.txt

The hotfix application example uses `git merge --no-commit` to apply
temporary changes to the working tree during a bisect operation. In some
situations this can be a fast-forward and `merge` will apply the hotfix
branch's commits regardless of `--no-commit` (as documented in the `git
merge` manual).
In the pathological case this will make a `git bisect run` invocation
loop indefinitely between the first bisect step and the fast-forwarded
post-merge HEAD.
Add `--no-ff` to the merge command to avoid this issue.

Add an option to print the object format used for input, output, or
storage. This allows shell scripts to discover the hash algorithm in
use.
Since the transition plan allows for multiple input algorithms, document
that we may provide multiple results for input, and the format that the
results may take. While we don't support this now, documenting it early
means that script authors can future-proof their scripts for when we do.

Remove empty and redundant documentation files from the
Documentation/technical/ directory.
The empty doc files included only TODO messages with no documentation for
years. Instead an approach is being taken to keep all doc beside the code
in the relevant header files.
Having empty doc files is confusing and disappointing to anybody looking
for information, besides having the documentation in header files makes it
easier for developers to find the information they are looking for.
Some of the content which could have gone here already exists elsewhere:
- api-object-access.txt -> sha1-file.c and object.h have some details.
- api-quote.txt -> quote.h has some details.
- api-xdiff-interface.txt -> xdiff-interface.h has some details.
- api-grep.txt -> grep.h does not have enough documentation at the moment.

beside the code instead of looking for it in another doc file, also
documentation/technical/api-config.txt is removed because the information
it has is now redundant and it'll be hard to keep it up to date and
