efd0201684 git-format-patch: add --output-directory long option again
Additionally notices and complains to an -o option without
directory or a duplicated -o option, -o and --stdout given
together.  Also delays the creation of directory until all
arguments are parsed, so that the command does not leave an
empty directory behind when it exits after seeing an unrelated
invalid option.

[jc: originally from Dennis Stosberg but with minor fixes, and
 documentation updates from Dennis.]

f1fe3846e4 tutorial: expanded discussion of commit history
Expand the history-browsing section of the tutorial a bit, in part to
address Junio's suggestion that we mention "git grep" and Linus's
complaint that people are missing the flexibility of the commandline
interfaces for selecting commits.

This reads a little more like a collection of examples than a
"tutorial", but maybe that's what people need at this point.

969d326d6b Enable ref log creation in git checkout -b.
Switch git checkout -b to use git-update-ref rather than echo and
a shell I/O redirection.  This is more in line with typical GIT
commands and allows -b to be logged according to the normal ref
logging rules.

Added -l option to allow users to create the ref log at the same
time as creating a branch.

cce91a2cae Change 'master@noon' syntax to 'master@{noon}'.
Its ambiguous to parse "master@2006-05-17 18:30:foo" when foo is
meant as a file name and ":30" is meant as 30 minutes past 6 pm.
Therefore all date specifications in a sha1 expression must now
appear within brackets and the ':' splitter used for the path name
in a sha1 expression ignores ':' appearing within brackets.

d3d8f361a8 Implement git-quiltimport
Importing a quilt patch series into git is not very difficult
but parsing the patch descriptions and all of the other
minutia take a bit of effort to get right, so this automates it.

Since git and quilt complement each other it makes sense
to make it easy to go back and forth between the two.

If a patch is encountered that it cannot derive the author
from the user is asked.

If config parameter core.logAllRefUpdates is true or the log
file already exists then append a line to ".git/logs/refs/<ref>"
whenever git-update-ref <ref> is executed.  Each log line contains
the following information:

  oldsha1 <SP> newsha1 <SP> committer <LF>

where committer is the current user, date, time and timezone in
the standard GIT ident format.  If the caller is unable to append
to the log file then git-update-ref will fail without updating <ref>.

An optional message may be included in the log line with the -m flag.
