Robert Dailey reported confusion on the mailing list about a nested
tag which was most likely created by mistake. Jeff King noted that
this isn't a very common case and creating a tag-to-a-tag can be a
user-error.
Suggest that it may be a mistake with an advice message when
creating such a tag. Those who do want to create a tag that point
at another tag regularly can turn it off with the usual advice
mechanism.

"git fsck --connectivity-only" omits computation necessary to sift
the objects that are not reachable from any of the refs into
unreachable and dangling. This is now enabled when dangling
objects are requested (which is done by default, but can be
overridden with the "--no-dangling" option).

Rather than parse options manually, which is both difficult to
read and error prone, parse options supplied to commit-tree
using the parse-options api.
It was discovered that the --no-gpg-sign option was documented
but not implemented in commit 70ddbd7767 (commit-tree: add missing
--gpg-sign flag, 2019-01-19), and the existing implementation
would attempt to translate the option as a tree oid. It was also
suggested earlier in commit 55ca3f99ae (commit-tree: add and document
--no-gpg-sign, 2013-12-13) that commit-tree should be migrated to
utilize the parse-options api, which could help prevent mistakes
like this in the future. Hence this change.
Also update the documentation to better describe that mixing
`-m` and `-F` options will correctly compose commit log messages in the
order in which the options are given.
In the process, mark various strings for translation.

Even though the newer "--type=color" option to "git config" is meant
to be upward compatible with the traditional "--get-color" option,
unlike the latter, its output is not an incomplete line that lack
the LF at the end. That makes it consistent with output of other
types like "git config --type=bool".
Document it, as it sometimes surprises unsuspecting users.

The --connectivity-only option avoids opening every object, and instead
just marks reachable objects with a flag and compares this to the set
of all objects. This strategy is discussed in more detail in 3e3f8bd608
(fsck: prepare dummy objects for --connectivity-check, 2017-01-17).
This means that we report _every_ unreachable object as dangling.
Whereas in a full fsck, we'd have actually opened and parsed each of
those unreachable objects, marking their child objects with the USED
flag, to mean "this was mentioned by another object". And thus we can
report only the tip of an unreachable segment of the object graph as
dangling.
You can see this difference with a trivial example:
tree=$(git hash-object -t tree -w /dev/null)
one=$(echo one | git commit-tree $tree)
two=$(echo two | git commit-tree -p $one $tree)
Running `git fsck` will report only $two as dangling, but with
--connectivity-only, both commits (and the tree) are reported. Likewise,
using --lost-found would write all three objects.
We can make --connectivity-only work like the normal case by taking a
separate pass over the unreachable objects, parsing them and marking
objects they refer to as USED. That still avoids parsing any blobs,
though we do pay the cost to access any unreachable commits and trees
(which may or may not be noticeable, depending on how many you have).
If neither --dangling nor --lost-found is in effect, then we can skip
this step entirely, just like we do now. That makes "--connectivity-only
--no-dangling" just as fast as the current "--connectivity-only". I.e.,
we do the correct thing always, but you can still tweak the options to
make it faster if you don't care about dangling objects.

On reading this again, there are two things that were not immediately
clear to me:
- we do still check links to blobs, even though we don't open the
blobs themselves
- we do not do the normal fsck checks, even for non-blob objects we do
open
Let's reword it to make these points a little more clear.

The former wording implied that --no-commit would always cause the
merge operation to "pause" and allow the user to make further changes
and/or provide a special commit message for the merge commit. This
is not the case for fast-forward merges, as there is no merge commit
to create. Without a merge commit, there is no place where it makes
sense to "stop the merge and allow the user to tweak changes"; doing
that would require a full rebase of some sort.
Since users may be unaware of whether their branches have diverged or
not, modify the wording to correctly address fast-forward cases as well
and suggest using --no-ff with --no-commit if the point is to ensure
that the merge stops before completing.

The combined diff format for merges will only list one filename, even if
rename or copy detection is active. For example, with raw format one
might see:
::100644 100644 100644 fabadb8 cc95eb0 4866510 MM describe.c
::100755 100755 100755 52b7a2d 6d1ac04 d2ac7d7 RM bar.sh
::100644 100644 100644 e07d6c5 9042e82 ee91881 RR phooey.c
This doesn't let us know what the original name of bar.sh was in the
first parent, and doesn't let us know what either of the original names
of phooey.c were in either of the parents. In contrast, for non-merge
commits, raw format does provide original filenames (and a rename score
to boot). In order to also provide original filenames for merge
commits, add a --combined-all-paths option (which must be used with
either -c or --cc, and is likely only useful with rename or copy
detection active) so that we can print tab-separated filenames when
renames are involved. This transforms the above output to:
::100644 100644 100644 fabadb8 cc95eb0 4866510 MM desc.c desc.c desc.c
::100755 100755 100755 52b7a2d 6d1ac04 d2ac7d7 RM foo.sh bar.sh bar.sh
::100644 100644 100644 e07d6c5 9042e82 ee91881 RR fooey.c fuey.c phooey.c
Further, in patch format, this changes the from/to headers so that
instead of just having one "from" header, we get one for each parent.
For example, instead of having
--- a/phooey.c
+++ b/phooey.c
we would see
--- a/fooey.c
--- a/fuey.c
+++ b/phooey.c
