Implement git-pull --quiet and git-pull --verbose by
adding the options to git-pull and fixing verbosity
handling in git-fetch.

The names of git commands are not meant to be entered at the
commandline; they are just names. So we render them in italics,
as is usual for command names in manpages.
Using
doit () {
perl -e 'for (<>) { s/\`(git-[^\`.]*)\`/'\''\1'\''/g; print }'
}
for i in git*.txt config.txt diff*.txt blame*.txt fetch*.txt i18n.txt \
merge*.txt pretty*.txt pull*.txt rev*.txt urls*.txt
do
doit <"$i" >"$i+" && mv "$i+" "$i"
done
git diff

The OPTIONS section of a documentation file contains a list
of the options a git command accepts.
Currently there are several variants to describe the case that
different options (almost) do the same in the OPTIONS section.
Some are:
-f, --foo::
-f|--foo::
-f | --foo::
But AsciiDoc has the special form:
-f::
--foo::
This patch applies this form to the documentation of the whole git suite,
and removes useless em-dash prevention, so \--foo becomes --foo.

These are the command line option equivalents of the 'merge.log' config
variable.
The patch also updates documentation and bash completion accordingly, and
adds a test.

This variable has the same effect, as 'merge.diffstat'.
Also mention it in the documentation.

This option has the same effect as '--(no-)summary' (i.e. whether to
show a diffsat at the end of the merge or not), and it is consistent
with the '--stat' option of other git commands.
Documentation, tests, and bash completion are updaed accordingly, and the
old --summary option is marked as being deprected.

These new options can be used to control the policy for fast-forward
merges: --ff allows it (this is the default) while --no-ff will create
a merge commit.

These options can be used to override --no-commit and --squash, which is
needed since --no-commit and --squash now can be specified as default merge
options in $GIT_DIR/config.
The change also introduces slightly different behavior for --no-commit:
when specified, it explicitly overrides --squash. Earlier,
'git merge --squash --no-commit' would result in a squashed merge (i.e. no
$GIT_DIR/MERGE_HEAD was created) but with this patch the command will
behave as if --squash hadn't been specified.

This uses "git-apply --whitespace=strip" to fix whitespace errors that have
crept in to our source files over time. There are a few files that need
to have trailing whitespaces (most notably, test vectors). The results
still passes the test, and build result in Documentation/ area is unchanged.

The diffstat can be controlled either with command-line options
(--summary|--no-summary) or with merge.diffstat. The default is
left as it was: diffstat is active by default.

Some people tend to do many little commits on a topic branch,
recording all the trials and errors, and when the topic is
reasonably cooked well, would want to record the net effect of
the series as one commit on top of the mainline, removing the
cruft from the history. The topic is then abandoned or forked
off again from that point at the mainline.
The barebone porcelainish that comes with core git tools does
not officially support such operation, but you can fake it by
using "git pull --no-merge" when such a topic branch is not a
strict superset of the mainline, like this:
git checkout mainline
git pull --no-commit . that-topic-branch
: fix conflicts if any
rm -f .git/MERGE_HEAD
git commit -a -m 'consolidated commit log message'
git branch -f that-topic-branch ;# now fully merged
This however does not work when the topic branch is a fast
forward of the mainline, because normal "git pull" will never
create a merge commit in such a case, and there is nothing
special --no-commit could do to begin with.
This patch introduces a new option, --squash, to support such a
workflow officially in both fast-forward case and true merge
case. The user-level operation would be the same in both cases:
git checkout mainline
git pull --squash . that-topic-branch
: fix conflicts if any -- naturally, there would be
: no conflict if fast forward.
git commit -a -m 'consolidated commit log message'
git branch -f that-topic-branch ;# now fully merged
When the current branch is already up-to-date with respect to
the other branch, there truly is nothing to do, so the new
option does not have any effect.
This was brought up in #git IRC channel recently.
