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.

The git-rev-parse command uses LF to separate each argument it
parses, so its users at least need to set IFS to LF to be able
to handle filenames with embedded SPs and TABs. Some commands,
however, can take and do expect arguments with embedded LF,
notably, "-S" (pickaxe) of diff family, so even this workaround
does not work for them.
When --sq flag to git-rev-parse is given, instead of showing one
argument per line, it outputs arguments quoted for consumption
with "eval" by the caller, to remedy this situation.
As an example, this patch converts git-whatchanged to use this
new feature.

So now you can say
git-whatchanged -p v2.6.12-rc5.. drivers/usb
and it will show you what changed (as a patch) in drivers/usb since the
v2.6.12-rc5 release.

If you want the raw stuff, just do
git-whatchanged --pretty=raw
and it wil act like it used to.

(but still try to use '-S' if using less)

It's a one-liner, but it's useful as documentation if nothing else.
