Figuring out how submodules work conceptually is quite a bumpy
ride for a newcomer; the user manual helps (if one knows to actually
look into it), but the reference documentation should provide good
quick intro as well. This patch attempts to do that, with suggestions
from Heikki Orsila.

* js/maint-pretty-mailmap:
Add pretty format %aN which gives the author name, respecting .mailmap
|
|
The manual page of git-cherry-pick and git-revert asserts that -n works
primarily on the working tree, while in fact the primary object it operates
on is the index, and the changes only "accidentally" propagate to the
working tree. This e.g. leads innocent #git IRC folks to believe that you
can use -n to prepare changes for git-add -i staging.

Since the files generated and used during a rebase are never to be
tracked, they should live in $GIT_DIR. While at it, avoid the rather
meaningless term "dotest" to "rebase", and unhide ".dotest-merge".
This was wished for on the mailing list, but so far unimplemented.

git-add -i ranges expect number-number. But for the supremely lazy, typing in
that second number when selecting "from patch 7 to the end" is wasted effort.
So treat an empty second number in a range as "until the last item".

This change makes "submodule add" much more strict in the arguments it
takes, and is intended to address confusion as recently noted on the
git-list. With this change, the required syntax is:
$ git submodule add URL path
Specifically, this eliminates the form
$ git submodule add URL
which was confused by more than one person as
$ git submodule add path
With this patch, the URL locating the submodule's origin repository can be
either an absolute URL, or (if it begins with ./ or ../) can express the
submodule's repository location relative to the superproject's origin.
This patch also eliminates a third form of URL, which was relative to the
superproject's top-level directory (not its repository). Any URL that was
neither absolute nor matched ./*|../* was assumed to point to a
subdirectory of the superproject as the location of the submodule's origin
repository. This URL form was confusing and does not seem to correspond
to an important use-case. Specifically, no-one has identified the need to
clone from a repository already in the superproject's tree, but if this is
needed it is easily done using an absolute URL: $(pwd)/relative-path. So,
no functionality is lost with this patch. (t6008-rev-list-submodule.sh did
rely upon this relative URL, fixed by using $(pwd).)
Following this change, there are exactly four variants of
submodule-add, as both arguments have two flavors:
URL can be absolute, or can begin with ./|../ and thus names the
submodule's origin relative to the superproject's origin.
Note: With this patch, "submodule add" discerns an absolute URL as
matching /*|*:*: e.g., URL begins with /, or it contains a :. This works
for all valid URLs, an absolute path in POSIX, as well as an absolute path
on Windows).
path can either already exist as a valid git repo, or will be cloned from
the given URL. The first form here eases creation of a new submodule in
an existing superproject as the submodule can be added and tested in-tree
before pushing to the public repository. However, the more usual form is
the second, where the repo is cloned from the given URL.
This specifically addresses the issue of
$ git submodule add a/b/c
attempting to clone from a repository at "a/b/c" to create a new module
in "c". This also simplifies description of "relative URL" as there is now
exactly *one* form: a URL relative to the parent's origin repo.

The document says that a fetch with a configured remote stores what are
fetched in the remote tracking branches "Unlike the longhand form", but
there is no longhand form "fetch" demonstrated earlier.
This adds a missing demonstration of the longhand form, and a new
paragraph to explain why some people might want to fetch before pull.

The pretty format %an does not respect .mailmap, but gives the exact
author name recorded in the commit. Sometimes it is more desirable,
however, to look if the email has another name mapped to it in .mailmap.
This commit adds %aN (and %cN for the committer name) to do exactly that.

"git-branch --merged" is a handy way to list all the branches that have
already been merged to the current branch, but it did not allow checking
against anything but the current branch. Having to switch branches only
to list the branches that are merged with another branch made the feature
practically useless.
This updates the option parser so that "git branch --merged next" is
accepted when you are on 'master' branch.

Various *_HEAD pseudo refs were not documented in any central place.
Especially since we may be teaching rebase and am to record ORIG_HEAD,
it would be a good time to do so.

The documentation suggests using "git stash apply" in the
--keep-index workflow even though doing so will lead to clutter
in the stash. And given that the changes are about to be
committed anyway "git stash pop" is more sensible.
Additionally the text preceeding the example claims that it
works for "two or more commits", but the example itself is
really tailored for just two. Expanding it just a little
makes it clear how the procedure generalizes to N commits.
Finally the example is annotated with some commentary to
explain things on a line-by-line basis.

Merge has always set ORIG_HEAD but never mentioned it, while we
recently added it to am and rebase. These facts should be reflected
in the documentation.
git-reset also sets ORIG_HEAD, but that fact is already mentioned in
the very first example so no changes were needed there.
