Every time _any_ documentation page changed, cmds-*.txt files
were regenerated, which caused git.{html,txt} to be remade. Try
not to update cmds-*.txt files if their new contents match the
old ones.

Some workflows require use of repositories on machines that cannot be
connected, preventing use of git-fetch / git-push to transport objects and
references between the repositories.
git-bundle provides an alternate transport mechanism, effectively allowing
git-fetch and git-pull to operate using sneakernet transport. `git-bundle
create` allows the user to create a bundle containing one or more branches
or tags, but with specified basis assumed to exist on the target
repository. At the receiving end, git-bundle acts like git-fetch-pack,
allowing the user to invoke git-fetch or git-pull using the bundle file as
the URL. git-fetch and git-ls-remote determine they have a bundle URL by
checking that the URL points to a file, but are otherwise unchanged in
operation with bundles.
The original patch was done by Mark Levedahl <mdl123@verizon.net>.
It was updated to make git-bundle a builtin, and get rid of the tar
format: now, the first line is supposed to say "# v2 git bundle", the next
lines either contain a prerequisite ("-" followed by the hash of the
needed commit), or a ref (the hash of a commit, followed by the name of
the ref), and finally the pack. As a result, the bundle argument can be
"-" now.

Minor corrections to release notes
This adds two new classes (pure-helpers and "Interacting with
Others") to the command list in the main manual page. The
latter class is primarily about foreign SCM interface and is
placed before low-level (plumbing) commands.
Also it promotes a handful commands to mainporcelain category
while demoting some others.

This moves the source of the list of commands and categorization
to the end of Documentation/cmd-list.perl, so that re-categorization
and re-ordering would become easier to manage.
