pull: do not display fetch usage on --help-all
git-tag.txt: list all modes in the description
commit,status: describe -u likewise
add: describe --patch like checkout, reset
commit,merge,tag: describe -m likewise
clone,init: describe --template using the same wording
commit,status: describe --porcelain just like push
commit,tag: use same wording for -F
configure: use AC_LANG_PROGRAM consistently
string_list_append: always set util pointer to NULL
correct type of EMPTY_TREE_SHA1_BIN
Currently, the description sounds as if it applied always, but most of
its content is true in "create tag mode" only.
Make this clearer by listing all modes upfront.
Also, sneak in some linguistic improvements and make it clearer that
lightweight tags are "created" because "written" may be misread as
"are output".

Here is a 'feature' command for streams to use to require support for
the notemodify (N) command.
When the 'feature' facility was introduced (v1.7.0-rc0~95^2~4,
2009-12-04), the notes import feature was old news (v1.6.6-rc0~21^2~8,
2009-10-09) and it was not obvious it deserved to be a named feature.
But now that is clear, since all major non-git fast-import backends
lack support for it.
Details: on git version with this patch applied, any "feature notes"
command in the features/options section at the beginning of a stream
will be treated as a no-op. On fast-import implementations without
the feature (and older git versions), the command instead errors out
with a message like
This version of fast-import does not support feature notes.
So by declaring use of notes at the beginning of a stream, frontends
can avoid wasting time and other resources when the backend does not
support notes. (This would be especially important for backends that
do not support rewinding history after a botched import.)

The "feature" command allows streams to specify options for the import
that must not be ignored. Logically, they are part of the stream,
even though technically most supported features are synonyms to
command-line options.
Make this more obvious by being more explicit about how the analogy
between most "feature" commands and command-line options works. Treat
the feature (import-marks) that does not fit this analogy separately.

In commits be254a0ea9 and 7dce19d374 the handling of the new fetch options
"--[no-]recurse-submodules" had been added to git-pull.sh. But they were
not documented as the pull options they now are, so let's fix that.

"git diff --cached" (without revision) used to mean "git diff --cached
HEAD" (i.e. the user was too lazy to type HEAD). This "correctly"
failed when there was no commit yet. But was that correctness useful?
This patch changes the definition of what particular command means.
It is a request to show what _would_ be committed without further "git
add". The internal implementation is the same "git diff --cached HEAD"
when HEAD exists, but when there is no commit yet, it compares the index
with an empty tree object to achieve the desired result.

The current treatment of "git reset --keep" emphasizes how it
differs from --hard (treatment of local changes) and how it breaks
down into plumbing (git read-tree -m -u HEAD <commit> followed by git
update-ref HEAD <commit>). This can discourage people from using
it, since it might seem to be a complex or niche option.
Better to emphasize what the --keep flag is intended for --- moving
the index and worktree from one commit to another, like "git checkout"
would --- so the reader can make a more informed decision about the
appropriate situations in which to use it.

When a frontend uses a marks file to ensure its state persists between
runs, it may represent "clean slate" when bootstrapping with "no marks
yet". In such a case, feeding the last state with --import-marks and
saving the state after the current run with --export-marks would be a
natural thing to do.
The --import-marks option however errors out when the specified marks file
doesn't exist; this makes bootstrapping a bit difficult. The location of
the marks file becomes backend-dependent when --relative-marks is in
effect, and the frontend cannot check for the existence of the file in
such a case.
The --import-marks-if-exists option does the same thing as --import-marks
but does not flag an error if the named file does not exist yet to help
these frontends.

This was added long ago as part of the userdiff refactoring
for textconv, as internally it made the code simpler and
cleaner. However, there was never a concrete use case for
actually using the config variable.
Now that Matthieu Moy has provided such a use case, it's
easy to explain it using his example.

The documentation for the post-rewrite hook contains a paragraph from
its early development, where the automatic notes copying facilities
were not part of the series and thus this had to be a hook. Later
versions of the series implemented notes copying as a core feature.
Thus mentioning post-rewrite-copy-notes was never correct. As the
other hooks do not have a "there is no default hook, but..." sentence
unless they ship a sample hook in either templates or contrib, we
simply remove the whole paragraph.

The --worktree-attributes option was correctly documented in ba053ea
(archive: do not read .gitattributes in working directory,
2009-04-18). However, later in 9b4c8b0 (archive documentation:
attributes are taken from the tree by default, 2010-02-10) the
misspelling "--work-tree-attributes" was used to refer to it. Fix
this.

'git-remote add' creates a remote.origin.fetch entry in the config, we
want to replace this entry rather than add another one (which will
cause 'git fetch' to error).
This adds 'git config --remove-section remote.origin' after the fetch
for encouraging users to only use "git svn" for future updates.

For example, this would allow cherry-picking or reverting patches from
a piece of history with a different end-of-line style, like so:
$ git revert -Xrenormalize old-problematic-commit
Currently that is possible with manual use of merge-recursive but the
cherry-pick/revert porcelain does not expose the functionality.
While at it, document the existing support for --strategy.

The default function name discovery already works quite well for Perl
code... with the exception of here-documents (or rather their ending).
sub foo {
print <<END
here-document
END
return 1;
}
The default funcname pattern treats the unindented END line as a
function declaration and puts it in the @@ line of diff and "grep
--show-function" output.
With a little knowledge of perl syntax, we can do better. You can
try it out by adding "*.perl diff=perl" to the gitattributes file.
