Thoroughly revise the "git bisect" manpage, including:
* Beef up the "Description" section.
* Make the first long example less specific to kernel development.
* De-emphasize implementation details in a couple of places.
* Add "(roughly N steps)" in the places where example output is shown.
* Properly markup code within the prose.
* Lots of wordsmithing.

It's better to start the man page with a description of what
submodules actually are, instead of saying what they are not.
Reorder the paragraphs such that
- the first short paragraph introduces the submodule concept,
- the second paragraph highlights the usage of the submodule command,
- the third paragraph giving background information, and finally
- the fourth paragraph discusing alternatives such as subtrees and
remotes, which we don't want to be confused with.
This ordering deepens the knowledge on submodules with each paragraph.
First the basic questions like "How/what" will be answered, while the
underlying concepts will be taught at a later time.
Making sure it is not confused with subtrees and remotes is not really
enhancing knowledge of submodules itself, but rather painting the big
picture of git concepts, so you could also argue to have it as the second
paragraph. Personally I think this may confuse readers, specially
newcomers though.
Additionally to reordering the paragraphs, they have been slightly
reworded.

'merge.branchdesc' is only mentioned in the docs of 'git fmt-merge-msg'.
The description of 'merge.log' is already duplicated between
'merge-config.txt' and 'git-fmt-merge-msg.txt'; instead of duplicating the
description of another config variable, extract the descriptions of both
of these variables from 'git-fmt-merge-msg.txt' into a separate file and
include it there and in 'merge-config.txt'.
Leave 'merge.summary' only in git-fmt-merge-msg.txt, as it is marked
as deprecated.

Teach send-email to read aliases in the sendmail aliases format, i.e.
<alias>: <address|alias>[, <address|alias>...]
Examples:
alice: Alice W Land <awol@example.com>
bob: Robert Bobbyton <bob@example.com>
# this is a comment
# this is also a comment
chloe: chloe@example.com
abgroup: alice, bob
bcgrp: bob, chloe, Other <o@example.com>
- Quoted aliases and quoted addresses are not supported.
- Line continuations are not supported.
Warnings are printed for explicitly unsupported constructs, and any
other lines that are not matched by the parser.

Traditionally, we only cared about whitespace breakages introduced
in new lines. Some people want to paint whitespace breakages on old
lines, too. When they see a whitespace breakage on a new line, they
can spot the same kind of whitespace breakage on the corresponding
old line and want to say "Ah, those breakages are there but they
were inherited from the original, so let's not touch them for now."
Introduce `--ws-error-highlight=<kind>` option, that lets them pass
a comma separated list of `old`, `new`, and `context` to specify
what lines to highlight whitespace errors on.
