dc87183189 Only use GIT_CONFIG in "git config", not other programs
For everything other than using "git config" to read or write a
git-style config file that isn't the current repo's config file,
GIT_CONFIG was actively detrimental. Rather than argue over which
programs are important enough to have work anyway, just fix all of
them at the root.

Also removes GIT_LOCAL_CONFIG, which would only be useful for programs
that do want to use global git-specific config, but not the repo's own
git-specific config, and want to use some other, presumably
git-specific config. Despite being documented, I can't find any sign that
it was ever used.

a0d2ceb276 doc/rev-parse: clarify reflog vs --until for specifying revisions
The rev-parse manpage introduces the branch@{date} syntax,
and mentions the reflog specifically. However, new users may
not be familiar with the distinction between the reflog and
the commit date, so let's help them out with a "you may be
interested in --until" pointer.

c14b9d1e33 Allow git-apply to recount the lines in a hunk (AKA recountdiff)
Sometimes, the easiest way to fix up a patch is to edit it directly, even
adding or deleting lines.  Now, many people are not as divine as certain
benevolent dictators as to update the hunk headers correctly at the first
try.

So teach the tool to do it for us.

f9a08f618f update-hook-example: optionally allow non-fast-forward
Sometimes it is desirable to have non-fast-forward branches in a
shared repository. A typical example of that is the 'pu' branch.
This patch extends the format of allowed-users and allow-groups
files by using the '+' sign at the beginning as the mark that
non-fast-forward pushes are permitted to the branch.

Git older than version 1.5.2 (or any other git version with this option
set to 1) may revert to version 1 of the pack index by manually deleting
all .idx files and recreating them using 'git index-pack'.  Communication

Access over the native protocol by old git versions is unaffected as
this capability is negociated by the protocol.  Otherwise setting this

f98f8cbac0 Ship sample hooks with .sample suffix
We used to mark hooks we ship as samples by making them unexecutable, but
some filesystems cannot tell what is executable and what is not.

This makes it much more explicit.  The hooks are suffixed with .sample
(but now are made executable), so enabling it is still one step operation
(instead of "chmod +x $hook", you would do "mv $hook.sample $hook") but
now they won't get accidentally enabled on systems without executable bit.

useful safety feature on filesystems like HFS+ that only journal the
metadata, not the actual file contents.

It defaults to off, although we could presumably in theory some day
auto-enable it on a per-filesystem basis.

6c2ce048bb Add argument 'no' commit/status option -u|--untracked-files
This new argument teaches Git to not look for any untracked files,
saving cycles on slow file systems, or large repos.

4bfee30a98 Add an optional <mode> argument to commit/status -u|--untracked-files option
This lets you specify how you want untracked files to be listed.
The possible options are:

    normal - Show untracked files and directories
    all    - Show all untracked files

The 'all' mode is used, if the mode is not specified.

3240240ff4 Docs: Use "-l::\n--long\n" format in OPTIONS sections
The OPTIONS section of a documentation file contains a list
of the options a git command accepts.

Currently there are several variants to describe the case that
different options (almost) do the same in the OPTIONS section.

Some are:

 -f, --foo::
 -f|--foo::
 -f | --foo::

But AsciiDoc has the special form:

 -f::
 --foo::

This patch applies this form to the documentation of the whole git suite,
and removes useless em-dash prevention, so \--foo becomes --foo.

c4a7ff52bd git-commit.txt: Correct option alternatives
This patch fixes the SYNOPSIS in git-commit.txt:

 * --amend could be used in conjunction with -c/-C/-F/-m;
   it is not mutually exclusive with them.

 * -m and -F are not alternative options to -c/-C;
   you can reuse authorship from a commit (-c/-C)
   but change the message (-m/-F).

Furthermore, for long-option consistency --author <author>
is changed to --author=<author>.

The old description was misleading and logically impossible. It claimed that
the ancestors of the original commit would be re-written to have the multiple
emitted ids as parents. Not only would this modify existing objects, but it
would create a cycle. What this actually does is pass the multiple emitted ids
to the newly-created children to use as parents.

the actual glossary content is now in its own "glossary-content.txt"
new file. And this file is included by both the user manual and the
gitglossary man page.

and sometimes improved a little too.

74d3b23fe3 git-init: accept --bare option
It is unfortunate that "git init --bare" does not work and the only reason
why "init" did not learn its own "--bare" option is because "git --bare
init" already does the job (and as an option to the git 'potty', it is
more generic solution).

This teaches "git init" its own "--bare" option, so that both "git --bare init"
and "git init --bare" works mostly the same way.
