The first usage we give is the original one where, e.g., `git log` is
piped through `git shortlog`. The description that follows reads the
other way round, by first focusing on the general behavior, then ending
with the behavior when reading from stdin.
It is also a tiny bit odd that what is probably the most common usage
and the one a reader is probably looking for is not at the top of the
list. Of course, it is only a two-item list, so it is not _that_ hard to
find... The next commit will add the original usage to the usage string
in builtin/shortlog.c, and it feels more natural to do so below the
most common usage. To avoid being inconsistent, reorder these two
usages here first.

The -e option added in 7950571ad7 ("A few more options for
git-cat-file", 2005-12-03) has always errored out with message on
stderr saying that the provided object is malformed, like this:
$ git cat-file -e malformed; echo $?
fatal: Not a valid object name malformed
128
A reader of this documentation may be misled into thinking that
if ! git cat-file -e "$object" [...]
as opposed to:
if ! git cat-file -e "$object" 2>/dev/null [...]
is sufficient to implement a truly silent test that checks whether
some arbitrary $object string was both valid, and pointed to an
object that exists.

The same document for "--diff-filter" is included by many
programs in the diff family. Because it mentions all
possible types (added, removed, etc), this may imply to the
reader that all types can be generated by a particular
command. But this isn't necessarily the case; "diff-files"
cannot generally produce an "Added" entry, since the diff is
limited to what is already in the index.
Let's make it clear that the list here is the full one, and
does not imply anything about what a particular invocation
may produce.
Note that conditionally including items (e.g., omitting
"Added" in the git-diff-files manpage) isn't the right
solution here for two reasons:
- The problem isn't diff-files, but doing an index to
working tree diff. "git diff" can do the same diff, but
also has other modes where "Added" does show up.
- The direction of the diff matters. Doing "diff-files -R"
can get you Added entries (but not Deleted ones).
So it's best just to explain that the set of available types
depends on the specific diff invocation.

049e64aa50 ("Documentation: convert SubmittingPatches to AsciiDoc",
2017-11-12) changed the `git blame` and `git shortlog` examples given in
the section on sending your patches.
In order to italicize the `$path` argument the commands are enclosed in
plus characters as opposed to backticks. The difference between the
quoting methods is that backtick enclosed text is not subject to further
expansion. This formatting makes reading SubmittingPatches in a git
clone a little more difficult. In addition to the underscores around
`$path` the `--` chars in `git shortlog --no-merges` must be replaced
with `{litdd}`.
Use backticks to quote these commands. The italicized `$path` is lost
from the html version but the commands can be read (and copied) more
easily by users reading the text version. These readers are more likely
to use the commands while submitting patches. Make it easier for them.

Before 425a28e0a4 (diff-lib: allow ita entries treated as "not yet exist
in index" - 2016-10-24) there are never "new files" in the index, which
essentially disables rename detection because we only detect renames
when a new file appears in a diff pair.
After that commit, an i-t-a entry can appear as a new file in "git
diff-files". But the diff callback function in wt-status.c does not
handle this case and produces incorrect status output.
PS. The reader may notice that this patch adds a new xstrdup() but not
a free(). Yes we leak memory (the same for head_path). But wt_status
so far has been short lived, this leak should not matter in
practice.

--update-shelve can now be specified multiple times on the
command-line, to update multiple shelved changelists in a single
submit.
This then means that a git patch series can be mirrored to a
sequence of shelved changelists, and (relatively easily) kept in
sync as changes are made in git.
Note that Perforce does not really support overlapping shelved
changelists where one change touches the files modified by
another. Trying to do this will result in merge conflicts.

Add support for supplying the -m option with --fixup. Doing so has
errored out ever since --fixup was introduced. Before this, the only
way to amend the fixup message while committing was to use --edit and
amend it in the editor.
The use-case for this feature is one of:
* Leaving a quick note to self when creating a --fixup commit when
it's not self-evident why the commit should be squashed without a
note into another one.
* (Ab)using the --fixup feature to "fix up" commits that have already
been pushed to a branch that doesn't allow non-fast-forwards,
i.e. just noting "this should have been part of that other commit",
and if the history ever got rewritten in the future the two should
be combined.
In such a case you might want to leave a small message,
e.g. "forgot this part, which broke XYZ".
With this, --fixup <commit> -m"More" -m"Details" will result in a
commit message like:
!fixup <subject of <commit>>
More
Details
The reason the test being added here seems to squash "More" at the end
of the subject line of the commit being fixed up is because the test
code is using "%s%b" so the body immediately follows the subject, it's
not a bug in this code, and other tests t7500-commit.sh do the same
thing.
When the --fixup option was initially added the "Option -m cannot be
combined" error was expanded from -c, -C and -F to also include
--fixup[1]
Those options could also support combining with -m, but given what
they do I can't think of a good use-case for doing that, so I have not
made the more invasive change of splitting up the logic in commit.c to
first act on those, and then on -m options.

Unrecognized escape sequences are invalid in values:
$ git config -f - --list <<EOF
[foo]
bar = "\t\\\y\"\u"
EOF
fatal: bad config line 2 in standard input
But in subsection names, the backslash is simply dropped if the
following character does not produce a recognized escape sequence:
$ git config -f - --list <<EOF
[foo "\t\\\y\"\u"]
bar = baz
EOF
foo.t\y"u.bar=baz
Although it would be nice for subsection names and values to have
consistent behavior, changing the behavior for subsection names is a
nonstarter since it would cause existing, valid config files to
suddenly be interpreted differently.

Sometimes users are given a hash of an object and they want to
identify it further (ex.: Use verify-pack to find the largest blobs,
but what are these? or [1])
When describing commits, we try to anchor them to tags or refs, as these
are conceptually on a higher level than the commit. And if there is no ref
or tag that matches exactly, we're out of luck. So we employ a heuristic
to make up a name for the commit. These names are ambiguous, there might
be different tags or refs to anchor to, and there might be different
path in the DAG to travel to arrive at the commit precisely.
When describing a blob, we want to describe the blob from a higher layer
as well, which is a tuple of (commit, deep/path) as the tree objects
involved are rather uninteresting. The same blob can be referenced by
multiple commits, so how we decide which commit to use? This patch
implements a rather naive approach on this: As there are no back pointers
from blobs to commits in which the blob occurs, we'll start walking from
any tips available, listing the blobs in-order of the commit and once we
found the blob, we'll take the first commit that listed the blob. For
example
git describe --tags v0.99:Makefile
conversion-901-g7672db20c2:Makefile
tells us the Makefile as it was in v0.99 was introduced in commit 7672db20.
The walking is performed in reverse order to show the introduction of a
blob rather than its last occurrence.

When the N-th previous thing checked out syntax (@{-N}) is used
with '--branch' option of check-ref-format the result may not be
the name of a branch that currently exists or ever existed. This
is because @{-N} is used to refer to the N-th last checked out
"thing", which might be a commit object name if the previous check
out was a detached HEAD state; or a branch name, otherwise. The
documentation thus does a wrong thing by promoting it as the
"previous branch syntax".
State that @{-N} is the syntax for specifying "N-th last thing
checked out" and also state that the result of using @{-N} might
also result in an commit object name.
