checkout: do not lose staged removal

The only part of the hunk header that we can change is the "TEXT"
portion. Additionally, a few grammatical errors have been corrected.

The logic to checkout a different commit implements the safety to never
lose user's local changes. For example, switching from a commit to
another commit, when you have changed a path that is different between
them, need to merge your changes to the version from the switched-to
commit, which you may not necessarily be able to resolve easily. By
default, "git checkout" refused to switch branches, to give you a chance
to stash your local changes (or use "-m" to merge, accepting the risks of
getting conflicts).
This safety, however, had one deliberate hole since early June 2005. When
your local change was to remove a path (and optionally to stage that
removal), the command checked out the path from the switched-to commit
nevertheless.
This was to allow an initial checkout to happen smoothly (e.g. an initial
checkout is done by starting with an empty index and switching from the
commit at the HEAD to the same commit). We can tighten the rule slightly
to allow this special case to pass, without losing sight of removal
explicitly done by the user, by noticing if the index is truly empty when
the operation begins.
For historical background, see:
http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.version-control.git/4641/focus=4646
This case is marked as *0* in the message, which both Linus and I said "it
feels somewhat wrong but otherwise we cannot start from an empty index".

When somebody is reading git-blame.txt (or git-annotate.txt) for the first
time, the message we would like to send is:
(1) Here is why you would want to use this command, what it can do
(perhaps more than what you would have expected from "$scm blame"),
and how you tell it to do what it does.
This is obvious.
(2) You might have heard of the command with the other name. There is no
difference between the two, except they differ in their default
output formats.
This is essential to answer: "git has both? how are they different?"
(3) We tend to encourage blame over annotate for new scripts and new
people, but there is no reason to choose one over the other.
This is not as important as (2), but would be useful to avoid
repeated questions about "when will we start deprecating this?"
As long as we describe (2) on git-annotate page clearly enough, people who
read git-blame page first and get curious can refer to git-annotate page.
While at it, subtly hint (3) without being overly explicit.

The description of crlf attribute incorrectly said that "-crlf" means
binary. It is true that for binary files you would want "-crlf", but
that is not the same thing.
We also have supported attribute macros and via that mechanism a handy
"binary" to specify "-crlf -diff" at the same time. It was not documented
anywhere as far as I can tell, even though the support was there from
the very beginning.

Since 59d3f54 (name-rev: avoid "^0" when unneeded, 2007-02-20), name-rev

When running a command like:
git log --pretty=format:%ad --date=short
the date option was ignored. This patch causes it to use whatever
format was specified by --date (or by --relative-date, etc), just
as the non-user formats would do.

It was not obvious from the text that pager.<cmd> is a boolean
setting.
While we're changing the description, make some other
improvements: lest we forget and fret, clarify that -p and
pager.<cmd> do not kick in when stdout is not a tty; point to
related core.pager and GIT_PAGER settings; use renamed --paginate
option.

Based on its name, people may read the 'git revert' documentation when
they want to undo local changes, especially people who have used other
SCM's. 'git revert' may not be what they had in mind, but git
provides several other ways to undo changes to files. We can help
them by pointing them towards the git commands that do what they might
want to do.

"git stash -h" showed some incomplete and ugly usage information.
For example, the useful "--keep-index" option for "save" or the "--index"
option for "apply" were not shown. Also in the documentation synopsis they
were not shown, so that there is no incentive to scroll down and even see
that such options exist.
This patch improves the git-stash synopsis in the documentation by
mentioning that further options to the stash commands and then copies
this synopsis to the usage information string of git-stash.sh.
For the latter, the dashless git command string has to be inserted on the
second and the following usage lines. The code of this is taken from
git-sh-setup so that all lines will show the command string.
Note that the "create" command is not advertised at all now, because
it was not mentioned in git-stash.txt.

All BibTeX entries starts with an @ followed by an entry type. Since
there are many entry types and own can be defined, the pattern matches
legal entry type names instead of just the default types (which would
be a long list). The pattern also matches strings and comments since
they will also be useful to position oneself in a bib-file.

The post-update hook, which is required to be enabled in order for
the repository to be accessible over HTTP, is not enabled by
chmod a+x anymore, but instead by dropping the .sample suffix.
This patch emphasizes this change in the release notes (since
I believe this is rather noticeable backwards-incompatible change).
It also adjusts the documentation which still described the old way
and fixes t/t5540-http-push.sh, which was broken for 1.5 month
but apparently noone ever runs this test.
