The previous commit introduced ---merge-base a way to take the diff
between the working tree or index and the merge base between an arbitrary
commit and HEAD. It makes sense to extend this option to support the
case where two commits are given too and behave in a manner identical to
`git diff A...B`.
Introduce the --merge-base flag as an alternative to triple-dot
notation. Thus, we would be able to write the above as
`git diff --merge-base A B`.

There is currently no easy way to take the diff between the working tree
or index and the merge base between an arbitrary commit and HEAD. Even
diff's `...` notation doesn't allow this because it only works between
commits. However, the ability to do this would be desirable to a user
who would like to see all the changes they've made on a branch plus
uncommitted changes without taking into account changes made in the
upstream branch.
Teach diff-index and diff (with one commit) the --merge-base option
which allows a user to use the merge base of a commit and HEAD as the
"before" side.

The modern way to quote commands in the documentation is to use
backticks instead of double-quotes as this renders the text with the
code style. Convert double-quoted command text to backtick-quoted
commands. While we're at it, quote one instance of `^@`.

In fde97d8ac6 (Update documentation to remove incorrect GIT_DIFF_OPTS
example., 2006-11-27), the description of the 'GIT_EXTERNAL_DIFF'
variable was moved from 'diff-format.txt' to 'git.txt', and the
documentation was updated to remove a 'diff(1)' invocation since Git did
not use an external diff program anymore by default.
However, the description of 'GIT_EXTERNAL_DIFF' still mentions "instead
of the diff invocation described above", which is confusing.
Correct that outdated sentence.
Also, link to git(1) in 'diff-generate-patch.txt' when GIT_DIFF_OPTS and
GIT_EXTERNAL_DIFF are mentioned, so that users can easily know what
these variables are about.

The .git/worktrees/<id>/gitdir file points at the location of a linked
worktree's .git file. Its content must be of the form
/path/to/worktree/.git (from which the location of the worktree itself
can be derived by stripping the "/.git" suffix). If the gitdir file is
deleted or becomes corrupted or outdated, then Git will be unable to
find the linked worktree. An easy way for the gitdir file to become
outdated is for the user to move the worktree manually (without using
"git worktree move"). Although it is possible to manually update the
gitdir file to reflect the new linked worktree location, doing so
requires a level of knowledge about worktree internals beyond what a
user should be expected to know offhand.
Therefore, teach "git worktree repair" how to repair broken or outdated
.git/worktrees/<id>/gitdir files automatically. (For this to work, the
command must either be invoked from within the worktree whose gitdir
file requires repair, or from within the main or any linked worktree by
providing the path of the broken worktree as an argument to "git
worktree repair".)

The .git file in a linked worktree is a "gitfile" which points back to
the .git/worktrees/<id> entry in the main worktree or bare repository.
If a worktree's .git file is deleted or becomes corrupted or outdated,
then the linked worktree won't know how to find the repository or any of
its own administrative files (such as 'index', 'HEAD', etc.). An easy
way for the .git file to become outdated is for the user to move the
main worktree or bare repository. Although it is possible to manually
update each linked worktree's .git file to reflect the new repository
location, doing so requires a level of knowledge about worktree
internals beyond what a user should be expected to know offhand.
Therefore, teach "git worktree repair" how to repair broken or outdated
worktree .git files automatically. (For this to work, the command must
be invoked from within the main worktree or bare repository, or from
within a worktree which has not become disconnected from the repository
-- such as one which was created after the repository was moved.)

Because the hook runs after the main checkout operation finishes, it
cannot affect what branch will be the current branch, what paths are
updated in the working tree, etc., which was described as "cannot
affect the outcome of 'checkout'".
However, the exit status of the hook is used as the exit status of
the 'checkout' command and is observable by anybody who spawned the
'checkout', which was missing from the documentation. Fix this.

Worktree administrative files can become corrupted or outdated due to
external factors. Although, it is often possible to recover from such
situations by hand-tweaking these files, doing so requires intimate
knowledge of worktree internals. While information necessary to make
such repairs manually can be obtained from git-worktree.txt and
gitrepository-layout.txt, we can assist users more directly by teaching
git-worktree how to repair its administrative files itself (at least to
some extent). Therefore, add a "git worktree repair" command which
attempts to correct common problems which may arise due to factors
beyond Git's control.
At this stage, the "repair" command is a mere skeleton; subsequent
commits will flesh out the functionality.

A handful of Git's commands respect `--abbrev' for customizing length
of abbreviation of object names.
For diff-family, Git supports 2 different options for 2 different
purposes, `--full-index' for showing diff-patch object's name in full,
and `--abbrev' to customize the length of object names in diff-raw and
diff-tree header lines, without any options to customise the length of
object names in diff-patch format. When working with diff-patch format,
we only have two options, either full index, or default abbrev length.
Although, that behaviour is documented, it doesn't stop users from
trying to use `--abbrev' with the hope of customising diff-patch's
objects' name's abbreviation.
Let's allow the blob object names shown on the "index" line to be
abbreviated to arbitrary length given via the "--abbrev" option.
To preserve backward compatibility with old script that specify both
`--full-index' and `--abbrev', always show full object id
if `--full-index' is specified.

"--cached" and "--index" are distinct modes with different behavior.
Additionally, the descriptions of "--index" and "--cached" are somewhat

determine that the index and working copy "match".

Rebase is implemented with two different backends - 'apply' and
'merge' each of which support a different set of options. In
particular the apply backend supports a number of options implemented
by 'git am' that are not implemented in the merge backend. This means
that the available options are different depending on which backend is
used which is confusing. This patch adds support for the --ignore-date
option to the merge backend. This option uses the current time as the
author date rather than reusing the original author date when
rewriting commits. We take care to handle the combination of
--ignore-date and --committer-date-is-author-date in the same way as
the apply backend.
