In the Table of Contents, there is a notable inconsistency:
first there is "GIT Glossary", followed by "Git Quick Reference"
on the very next line.
Running "grep -c" on user-manual.txt, I find 780 occurrrences of
"git", 37 occurrences of "Git", and 9 occurrences of "GIT".
In general, "git" is the preferred spelling, except at the
beginning of a sentence.
Therefore, change "GIT Glossary" to "Git Glossary" for consistency
with the rest of the document.
Looking at the other eight occurrences of "GIT" I found one other
occurrence that should be changed:
* The mention of "StGIT". Looking at the web pages for "Stacked Git"
at http://www.procode.org/stgit, I only saw the spelling "StGit",
except in http://wiki.procode.org/cgi-bin/wiki.cgi/StGIT_Tutorial,
but that page was last updated in 2006.
The other seven occurrences should not be changed:
* Three occurrences were in the output of 'git show-branch' run
on the git.git repository.
* One occurrence was in the output of 'git cat-file'.
* One occurrence was as part of the file name "GIT-VERSION-GEN".
* Two occurrences were in comments in scripts quoted in a description
of Tony Luck's workflow.

The current man page does a reasonable job at describing branch management
during the development process, but it does not contain any guidance as to
how the branches are affected by releases.
Add a basic introduction to the branch management undertaken during a
git.git release, so that a reader may gain some insight into how the
integration, maintenance, and topic branches are affected during the
release transition, and is thus able to better design the process for their
own project.
Other release activities such as reviews, testing, and creating
distributions are currently out of scope.

We parse unhandled.log files for empty_dir statements and make a
best effort attempt to recreate empty directories on fresh
clones and rebase. This should cover the majority of cases
where users work off a single branch or for projects where
branches do not differ in empty directories.
Since this cannot affect "normal" git commands like "checkout"
or "reset", so users switching between branches in a single
working directory should use the new "git svn mkdirs" command
after switching branches.

Expose the command used by launch_editor() for scripts to use.
This should allow one to avoid searching for a proper editor
separately in each command.
git_editor(void) uses the logic to decide which editor to use
that used to live in launch_editor(). The function returns NULL
if there is no suitable editor; the caller is expected to issue
an error message when appropriate.
launch_editor() uses git_editor() and gives the error message the
same way as before when EDITOR is not set.
"git var GIT_EDITOR" gives the editor name, or an error message
when there is no appropriate one.
"git var -l" gives GIT_EDITOR=name only if there is an
appropriate editor.

The current technical documentation for the packfile protocol is both
sparse and incorrect. This documents the fetch-pack/upload-pack and
send-pack/ receive-pack protocols much more fully.
Add documentation from Shawn's upcoming http-protocol docs that is
shared by the packfile protocol. protocol-common.txt describes ABNF
notation amendments, refname rules and the packet line format.
Add documentation on the various capabilities supported by the
upload-pack and receive-pack protocols. protocol-capabilities.txt
describes multi-ack, thin-pack, side-band[-64k], shallow, no-progress,
include-tag, ofs-delta, delete-refs and report-status.

Since a0e4639 (filter-branch: fix ref rewriting with
--subdirectory-filter, 2008-08-12) git-filter-branch has done
nearest-ancestor rewriting when using a --subdirectory-filter.
However, that rewriting strategy is also a useful building block in
other tasks. For example, if you want to split out a subset of files
from your history, you would typically call
git filter-branch -- <refs> -- <files>
But this fails for all refs that do not point directly to a commit
that affects <files>, because their referenced commit will not be
rewritten and the ref remains untouched.
The code was already there for the --subdirectory-filter case, so just
introduce an option that enables it independently.

"-p" means "generate patch" in 'git log' and 'git diff', so it's
quite surprising that it means "suppress diffstat" in
'git format-patch'.
Keep the "-p" option for backward compatibility, but add
"--no-stat" as a more intuitive synonym. For backward compatibility
with scripts, we must allow combinations of --stat and --no-stat.

To simplify reading the documentation for format-patch, remove the
description of common diff options that are not useful for the
purpose of the command (i.e. "Prepare patches for e-mail submission").
Specifically, this removes the description of the following options:
--raw
-z
--color
--no-color
--color-words
--diff-filter
-S
--pickaxe-all
--pickaxe-regex
-R
--relative
--exit-code
--quiet

Jeff King recently reinstated -p to suppress the default diffstat
(as -p used to work before 68daa64, about 14 months ago).
However, -p is also needed in combination with certain options
(e.g. --stat or --numstat) in order to produce any patch at all.
The documentation does not mention this.
Since the purpose of format-patch is to produce a patch that
can be emailed, it does not make sense that certain combination
of options will suppress the generation of the patch itself.
Therefore:
* Update 'git format-patch' to always generate a patch.
* Since the --name-only, --name-status, and --check suppresses
the generation of the patch, disallow those options,
and remove the description of them in the documentation.
* Remove the reference to -p in the description of -U.
* Remove the descriptions of the options that are synonyms for -p
plus another option (--patch-with-raw and --patch-with-stat).
* While at it, slightly tweak the description of -p itself
to say that it generates "plain patches", so that you can
think of -p as "plain patch" as an mnemonic aid.

This only changes the behavior of "git show-ref -h" without any
other options and arguments.
"show-ref -h" currently is short for "show-ref --head", which
shows all the refs/* and HEAD, as opposed to "show-ref" that
shows all the refs/* and not HEAD.
Does anybody use "show-ref -h"? It was in Linus's original, most
likely only because "it might be handy", not because "the command
should not show the HEAD by default for such and such reasons".
So I think it is okay if "show-ref -h" (but not "show-ref
--head") gives help and exits.
If a current script uses "git show-ref -h" without any other
arguments, it would have to be adapted by changing "-h" to
"--head".

Some repository owners may wish to enable smart HTTP, but disallow
dumb content serving. Disallowing dumb serving might be because
the owners want to rely upon reachability to control which objects
clients may access from the repository, or they just want to
encourage clients to use the more bandwidth efficient transport.
If http.getanyfile is set to false the backend CGI will return with
'403 Forbidden' when an object file is accessed by a dumb client.

The git-remote-curl backend detects if the remote server supports
the git-receive-pack service, and if so, runs git-send-pack in a
pipe to dump the command and pack data as a single POST request.
The advertisements from the server that were obtained during the
discovery are passed into git-send-pack before the POST request
starts. This permits git-send-pack to operate largely unmodified.
For smaller packs (those under 1 MiB) a HTTP/1.0 POST with a
Content-Length is used, permitting interaction with any server.
The 1 MiB limit is arbitrary, but is sufficent to fit most deltas
created by human authors against text sources with the occasional
small binary file (e.g. few KiB icon image). The configuration
option http.postBuffer can be used to increase (or shink) this
buffer if the default is not sufficient.
For larger packs which cannot be spooled entirely into the helper's
memory space (due to http.postBuffer being too small), the POST
request requires HTTP/1.1 and sets "Transfer-Encoding: chunked".
This permits the client to upload an unknown amount of data in one
HTTP transaction without needing to pregenerate the entire pack
file locally.
