Since commit 00b347d (git-config: do not complain about duplicate
entries, 2012-10-23), "git config --get" does not exit with an error if
there are multiple values for the specified key but instead returns the
last value. Update the documentation to reflect this.

The configuration option column.ui is very poorly documented, and it is
unclear what the defaults are, and what option can be combined with
what. Rewrite it by splitting up the options into three sections
clearly showing how COL_ENABLED, COL_LAYOUT_MASK, and COL_DENSE work.

While both GUI and console Cygwin browsers do exist, anecdotal evidence
suggests most users rely on their native Windows browser. cygstart,
which is a long-standing part of the base Cygwin installation, will
cause the page to be opened in the default Windows browser (the one
registered to open .html files).

The behavior of "git push --force" is rather clear when it updates only
one remote ref, but running it when pushing several branches can really
be dangerous. Warn the users a bit more and give them the alternative to
push only one branch.

"diff-index" can be used to compare a tree with the tracked working
tree files (when used without the --index option), or with the index
(when used with the --index option).
The text however did not say anything about the comparison with the
working tree at all. Fix this.

The existing documentation for "-d" does not make it obvious whether
its argument is supposed to be a full svn path, a partial svn path,
the glob from the config file, or what. Clarify the text and add an

"git svn" can be configured to use multiple fetch, branches, and tags
refspecs by passing multiple --branches or --tags options at init time
or editing the configuration file later, which can be handy when
working with messy Subversion repositories. Add a note to the

The SVN::Fetcher module is now able to filter for inclusion as well
as exclusion (as used by --ignore-path). Also added tests, documentation
changes and git completion script.
If you have an SVN repository with many top level directories and you
only want a git-svn clone of some of them then using --ignore-path is
difficult as it requires a very long regexp. In this case it's much
easier to filter for inclusion.
