The `user-manual.txt` is designed as a `book` but the `Makefile` wants
to build it as an `article`. This seems to be a problem when building
the documentation with `asciidoctor`. Furthermore the parts *Git
Glossary* and *Appendix B* had no subsections which is not allowed when
building with `asciidoctor`. So lets add a *dummy* section.

The "--" argument avoids "ambiguous argument: unknown revision or

The "--" passed explicitly to set was removed because rev-parse

Now that all callers of the old 'get_pathspec' interface have been
migrated to use the new pathspec struct interface it can be removed
from the codebase.
Since there are no more users of the '_raw' field in the pathspec struct
it can also be removed. This patch also removes the old functionality
of modifying the const char **argv array that was passed into
parse_pathspec. Instead the constructed 'match' string (which is a
pathspec element with the prefix prepended) is only stored in its
corresponding pathspec_item entry.

The "giteveryday" document has a callout list that contains a code
block. This is not a problem for AsciiDoc, but AsciiDoctor sadly was
explicitly designed *not* to render this correctly [*1*]. The symptom is
an unhelpful
line 322: callout list item index: expected 1 got 12
line 325: no callouts refer to list item 1
line 325: callout list item index: expected 2 got 13
line 327: no callouts refer to list item 2
In Git for Windows, we rely on the speed improvement of AsciiDoctor (on
this developer's machine, `make -j15 html` takes roughly 30 seconds with
AsciiDoctor, 70 seconds with AsciiDoc), therefore we need a way to
render this correctly.
The easiest way out is to simplify the callout list, as suggested by
AsciiDoctor's author, even while one may very well disagree with him
that a code block hath no place in a callout list.

git-p4 crashes when used with a very old p4 client version
that does not support the '-r <number>' option in its commands.
Allow making git-p4 work with old p4 clients by setting git-p4.retries to 0.
Alternatively git-p4.retries could be made opt-in.
But since only very old, barely maintained p4 versions don't support
the '-r' option, the setting-retries-to-0 workaround would do.
The "-r retries" option is present in Perforce 2012.2 Command Reference,
but absent from Perforce 2012.1 Command Reference.

When a patch inserts a block of lines, whose last lines are the
same as the existing lines that appear before the inserted block,
"git diff" can choose any place between these existing lines as the
boundary between the pre-context and the added lines (adjusting the
end of the inserted block as appropriate) to come up with variants
of the same patch, and some variants are easier to read than others.
We have been trying to improve the choice of this boundary, and Git
2.11 shipped with an experimental "compaction-heuristic". Since
then another attempt to improve the logic further resulted in a new
"indent-heuristic" logic. It is agreed that the latter gives better
result overall, and the former outlived its usefulness.
Retire "compaction", and keep "indent" as an experimental feature.
The latter hopefully will be turned on by default in a future
release, but that should be done as a separate step.

Teach grep to recursively search in submodules when provided with a
<tree> object. This allows grep to search a submodule based on the state
of the submodule that is present in a commit of the super project.
When grep is provided with a <tree> object, the name of the object is
prefixed to all output. In order to provide uniformity of output
between the parent and child processes the option `--parent-basename`
has been added so that the child can preface all of it's output with the
name of the parent's object instead of the name of the commit SHA1 of
the submodule. This changes output from the command
`git grep -e. -l --recurse-submodules HEAD` from:
HEAD:file
<commit sha1 of submodule>:sub/file
to:
HEAD:file
HEAD:sub/file

Allow grep to recognize submodules and recursively search for patterns in
each submodule. This is done by forking off a process to recursively
call grep on each submodule. The top level --super-prefix option is
used to pass a path to the submodule which can in turn be used to
prepend to output or in pathspec matching logic.
Recursion only occurs for submodules which have been initialized and
checked out by the parent project. If a submodule hasn't been
initialized and checked out it is simply skipped.
In order to support the existing multi-threading infrastructure in grep,
output from each child process is captured in a strbuf so that it can be
later printed to the console in an ordered fashion.
To limit the number of theads that are created, each child process has
half the number of threads as its parents (minimum of 1), otherwise we
potentailly have a fork-bomb.
