5162e69732 Documentation: rename gitlink macro to linkgit
Between AsciiDoc 8.2.2 and 8.2.3, the following change was made to the stock
Asciidoc configuration:

@@ -149,7 +153,10 @@
 # Inline macros.
 # Backslash prefix required for escape processing.
 # (?s) re flag for line spanning.
-(?su)[\\]?(?P<name>\w(\w|-)*?):(?P<target>\S*?)(\[(?P<attrlist>.*?)\])=
+
+# Explicit so they can be nested.
+(?su)[\\]?(?P<name>(http|https|ftp|file|mailto|callto|image|link)):(?P<target>\S*?)(\[(?P<attrlist>.*?)\])=
+
 # Anchor: [[[id]]]. Bibliographic anchor.
 (?su)[\\]?\[\[\[(?P<attrlist>[\w][\w-]*?)\]\]\]=anchor3
 # Anchor: [[id,xreflabel]]

This default regex now matches explicit values, and unfortunately in this
case gitlink was being matched by just 'link', causing the wrong inline
macro template to be applied. By renaming the macro, we can avoid being
matched by the wrong regex.

dee48c3c7e git-merge: document but discourage the historical syntax
Historically "git merge" took its command line arguments in a
rather strange order.  Document the historical syntax, and also
document clearly that it is not encouraged in new scripts.

There is no reason to deprecate the historical syntax, as the
current code can sanely tell which syntax the caller is using,
and existing scripts by people do use the historical syntax.

aec7b362ad git-merge: add support for branch.<name>.mergeoptions
This enables per branch configuration of merge options. Currently, the most
useful options to specify per branch are --squash, --summary/--no-summary
and possibly --strategy, but all options are supported.

Note: Options containing whitespace will _not_ be handled correctly. Luckily,
the only option which can include whitespace is --message and it doesn't
make much sense to give that option a default value.

dbddb714b0 Update git-merge documentation.
Add "Configuration" section to describe merge.summary
configuration variable (which is mentioned in git-fmt-merge-msg(1)
man page, but it is a plumbing command), and merge.verbosity
configuration variable (so there is a place to make reference
from "Environment Variables" section of git(7) man page) to the
git-merge(1) man page.  Also describe GIT_MERGE_VERBOSITY
environment.

The configuration variable merge.verbosity and environment variable
GIT_MERGE_VERBOSITY were introduced in commit 8c3275ab, which also
documented configuration variable but not environment variable.

a6080a0a44 War on whitespace
This uses "git-apply --whitespace=strip" to fix whitespace errors that have
crept in to our source files over time.  There are a few files that need
to have trailing whitespaces (most notably, test vectors).  The results
still passes the test, and build result in Documentation/ area is unchanged.

d7f078b8b9 Convert update-index references in docs to add.
Since `git add` is the approved porcelain for an end-user to invoke
when they want to manipulate the index, porcelain documentation
should steer the user to this command rather than the pure plumbing
update-index.

f94741324e Use GIT_REFLOG_ACTION environment variable instead.
Junio rightly pointed out that the --reflog-action parameter
was starting to get out of control, as most porcelain code
needed to hand it to other porcelain and plumbing alike to
ensure the reflog contained the top-level user action and
not the lower-level actions it invoked.

At Junio's suggestion we are introducing the new set_reflog_action
function to all shell scripts, allowing them to declare early on
what their default reflog name should be, but this setting only
takes effect if the caller has not already set the GIT_REFLOG_ACTION
environment variable.

17bcdad3b7 git-merge: make it usable as the first class UI
This teaches the oft-requested syntax

	git merge $commit

to implement merging the named commit to the current branch.
This hopefully would make "git merge" usable as the first class
UI instead of being a mere backend for "git pull".

Most notably, $commit above can be any committish, so you can
say for example:

	git merge js/shortlog~2

to merge early part of a topic branch without merging the rest
of it.

A custom merge message can be given with the new --message=<msg>
parameter.  The message is prepended in front of the usual
"Merge ..." message autogenerated with fmt-merge-message.

3ae854c356 Examples of resetting.
Morten Welinder says examples of resetting is really about
recovering from botched commit/pulls.  I agree that pointers
from commands that cause a reset to be needed in the first place
would be very helpful.

Also reset examples did not mention "pull/merge" cases.

3ace1fe34b git-merge documentation: conflicting merge leaves higher stages in index
This hopefully concludes the latest updates that changes the
behaviour of the merge on an unsuccessful automerge.  Instead of
collapsing the conflicted path in the index to show HEAD, we
leave it unmerged, now that diff-files can compare working tree
files with higher stages.

fdd089793c Documentation: git-fetch/pull updates.
We do not accept multiple <refspecs> on one Pull:/Push: line
right now (we could lift this tentative workaround for the
broken refnames), but we have always accepted multiple such
lines, so use that form in the examples and discussion.

Also explicitly mention that Octopus is made only with an
explicit command line request and never from Pull: lines.

Add a couple of cross references.
