Take Johannes Schindelin's suggestions for a further simplification of
the shared repository creation using git --bare init-db --shared, and
for a simplified cvsimport using an existing CVS working directory.
Also insert more man page references.

This patch clarifies the meaning of the branch.*.merge option.
Previously, if branch.*.merge was specified but did not match any
ref, the message "No changes." was not really helpful regarding
the misconfiguration. This patch adds a warning for this.

Modify cvs-migration.txt so it explains first how to develop against a
shared repository, then how to set up a shared repository, then how to
import a repository from cvs. Though this seems chronologically
backwards, it's still readable in this order, and it puts the more
commonly needed material closer to the front.
Remove the annotate/pickaxe section; perhaps it can find a place elsewhere
in the future. Remove most of the "why git is better than cvs" stuff from
the introduction.
Add some minor clarifications, including two that have come up several
times on the mailing list:
1. Recommend committing any changes before running pull.
2. Note that changes must be commited before they can be pushed.
Update the clone discussion to reflect the new --use-separate-remotes
default, and add a brief mention of git-cvsserver.

With making --use-separate-remote default when creating non-bare
clone, there was need for the flag which would turn off this behavior.
It was called --use-immingled-remote.
Immingle means to blend, to combine into one, to intermingle, but it
is a bit obscure word. I think it would be better to use simply
--no-separate-remote as the opposite to --use-separate-remote
option to git clone.

Introducing yourself to git early would be a good idea; otherwise
the user may not find the mistake until much later when "git log"
is learned.
Teaching "commit -a" without saying that it is a shortcut for
listing the paths to commit leaves the user puzzled. Teach the
form with explicit paths first.

Attempt to clarify somewhat the difference between pull and merge,
and give a little more details on the pull syntax.
I'm still not happy with this section: the explanation of the origin
branch isn't great, but maybe that should be left alone pending the
use-separate-remotes change; and we need to explain how to set up a
public repository and push to it.

We've talked about this for quite some time on the list, and it
is a sane thing to do for a repository with an associcated

expected to be removed before the next major release.

Asciidoc-include it into the manuals for programs that use the
--pretty command-line option, for consistency among the docs.
This describes all the pretty-formats currently listed in the cmit_fmt
enum in commit.h, and also briefly describes the presence and format
of the 'Merge: ' line in some pretty formats.
There's a hedge that limiting your view of history can affect what
goes in the Merge: line, and that --abbrev/--no-abbrev do nothing to
the 'raw' format.

Instead of storing a list of refnames in append_ref, a list of
structures is created. Each of these stores the refname and a
symbolic constant representing its type.
The creation of the list is filtered based on a command line
switch; no switch means "local branches only", "-r" means "remote
branches only" (as they always did); but now "-a" means "local
branches or remote branches".
As a side effect, the list is now not global, but allocated in
print_ref_list() where it used.
Also a memory leak is plugged, the memory allocated during the
list creation was never freed.
It lays a groundwork to also display tags, but the command being
'git branch' it is not currently used.

This teaches the oft-requested syntax
git merge $commit
to implement merging the named commit to the current branch.
This hopefully would make "git merge" usable as the first class
UI instead of being a mere backend for "git pull".
Most notably, $commit above can be any committish, so you can
say for example:
git merge js/shortlog~2
to merge early part of a topic branch without merging the rest
of it.
A custom merge message can be given with the new --message=<msg>
parameter. The message is prepended in front of the usual
"Merge ..." message autogenerated with fmt-merge-message.

There was a bug in dcommit (and commit-diff) which caused deltas
to be generated against the latest version of the changed file
in a repository, and not the revision we are diffing (the tree)
against locally.
This bug can cause recent changes to the svn repository to be
silently clobbered by git-svn if our repository is out-of-date.
Thanks to Steven Grimm for noticing the bug.
The (few) people using the commit-diff command are now required
to use the -r/--revision argument. dcommit usage is unchanged.

Since functions in fetch-clone.c were only used from fetch-pack.c,
its content has been merged with fetch-pack.c. This allows for better
coupling of features with much simpler implementations.
One new thing is that the (abscence of) --thin also enforce it on
index-pack now, such that index-pack will abort if a thin pack was
_not_ asked for.
The -k or --keep, when provided twice, now causes the fetched pack
to be left as a kept pack just like receive-pack currently does.
Eventually this will be used to close a race against concurrent
repacking.
