Fix references to gitrevisions(1) in the manual pages and HTML
documentation.
In practice, this will not matter much unless someone tries to use a
hard copy of the git reference manual.

Group entries related to parameter substitutions together and avoid
using the word "regexp" to refer to the ${parameter/pattern/string}
substitution (banned), as the pattern there is a shell glob and not
a regular expression.

Document the meanings of the tags "Reported-by:", "Acked-by:",
"Reviewed-by:" and "Tested-by:" clearly. Also mention that the user is
free to use any custom tags.

Some people in #linux-rt noticed that describing what "--mirror" option does
with "it mirrors" is way insufficient.

* commit 'git-svn/master~1':
git-svn: fix processing of decorated commit hashes
git-svn: check_cherry_pick should exclude commits already in our history
Documentation/git-svn: discourage "noMetadata"
|
|
Make it clearer that --parents resp. --children list the parent resp.
child commits next to each commit, so that I understand next time.

Since we use a-b-c for mywork commits in one place, I think it would be
logical to also use a-b-c too in other illustration on this topic.

Currently, the help for git filter-branch refers users of --env-filter
to git-commit for information about environment variables affecting
commits. However, this information is not contained in the git-commit
help, but is very explicitly detailed in git-commit-tree.

POSIX wants shells to support both "N" and "$N" and requires them to yield
the same answer to $((N)) and $(($N)), but we should aim for portability
in a case like this, especially when the price we pay to do so is so
small, i.e. a few extra dollars.

"noMetadata" is a sometimes harmful option, so better document

Similar to descriptions of other options, state what -x does in imperative

capital letters.

Since b5227d8, -x/--exclude does not apply to cached files.
This is easy to miss unless you read the discussion in the
EXCLUDE PATTERNS section. Clarify that the option applies
to untracked files and direct the reader to EXCLUDE PATTERNS.

config.txt: fix placement of diff.noprefix
|
|
In git-config(1), diff.noprefix was placed in between
diff.mnemonicprefix and the list of mnemonic prefixes, which is
obviously incorrect and very confusing to readers. Now, it is located
after the end of the explanation of mnemonicprefix, which makes much
more sense.

The timestamp that follows "Last updated " is formatted differently
depending on the version of AsciiDoc. Looking at 4604fe56 on "html"
branch, you can see that AsciiDoc 7.0.2 used to give "02-Jul-2008 03:02:14
UTC" but AsciiDoc 8.2.5 gave "2008-09-19 06:33:25 UTC". We haven't been
correctly filtering out phantom changes that result from only the build
date for some time now, it seems.
Just filter lines that begin with "Last updated ".
