The refspecs specified in the .git/remotes/<remote> on the "Pull: "
lines are for fetching multiple heads in one go, but most of the time
making an Octopus out of them is not what is wanted. Make git-fetch
leave the marker in .git/FETCH_HEAD file so that later stages can
tell which heads are for merging and which are not.
Tom Prince made me realize how stupid the original behaviour was.

For local operations and downloading and uploading via git aware protocols,
use of $GIT_OBJECT_DIRECTORY/info/alternates is recommended on the server
side for big projects that are derived from another one (like Linux kernel).
However, dumb protocols and rsync transport needs to resolve this on the
client end, which we did not bother doing until this week.
I noticed we use "rsync -z" but most of our payload is already compressed,
which was not quite right. This commit also fixes it.

As promised, this is the "big tool rename" patch. The primary differences
since 0.99.6 are:
(1) git-*-script are no more. The commands installed do not
have any such suffix so users do not have to remember if
something is implemented as a shell script or not.
(2) Many command names with 'cache' in them are renamed with
'index' if that is what they mean.
There are backward compatibility symblic links so that you and
Porcelains can keep using the old names, but the backward
compatibility support is expected to be removed in the near
future.
