however, to look if the email has another name mapped to it in .mailmap.

"git-branch --merged" is a handy way to list all the branches that have

The documentation suggests using "git stash apply" in the
--keep-index workflow even though doing so will lead to clutter
in the stash. And given that the changes are about to be
committed anyway "git stash pop" is more sensible.
Additionally the text preceeding the example claims that it
works for "two or more commits", but the example itself is
really tailored for just two. Expanding it just a little
makes it clear how the procedure generalizes to N commits.
Finally the example is annotated with some commentary to
explain things on a line-by-line basis.
Merge has always set ORIG_HEAD but never mentioned it, while we
recently added it to am and rebase. These facts should be reflected
in the documentation.
git-reset also sets ORIG_HEAD, but that fact is already mentioned in
the very first example so no changes were needed there.

Adds a new option 'e' to the 'add -p' command loop that lets you edit
the current hunk in your favourite editor.
If the resulting patch applies cleanly, the edited hunk will
immediately be marked for staging. If it does not apply cleanly, you
will be given an opportunity to edit again. If all lines of the hunk
are removed, then the edit is aborted and the hunk is left unchanged.
Applying the changed hunk(s) relies on Johannes Schindelin's new
--recount option for git-apply.
Note that the "real patch" test intentionally uses
(echo e; echo n; echo d) | git add -p
even though the 'n' and 'd' are superfluous at first sight. They
serve to get out of the interaction loop if git add -p wrongly
concludes the patch does not apply.

Since the git-* commands are not installed in $(bindir), using
"git-command <parameters>" in examples in the documentation is
not a good idea. On the other hand, it is nice to be able to
refer to each command using one hyphenated word. (There is no
escaping it, anyway: man page names cannot have spaces in them.)
This patch retains the dash in naming an operation, command,
program, process, or action. Complete command lines that can
be entered at a shell (i.e., without options omitted) are
made to use the dashless form.
The changes consist only of replacing some spaces with hyphens
and vice versa. After a "s/ /-/g", the unpatched and patched

This makes it much more explicit. The hooks are suffixed with .sample
