It's just as much a work-in-progress, but at least now it's gotten
enough technical review to shake out most of the really bad lies, so
hopefully it doesn't do any actual damage. And if we encourage people
to read it, they'll be more likely to whine about it, which will help
get it fixed faster.

Any section lacking an id gets an annoying warning when you build
the manual. More seriously, the table of contents then generates
volatile id's which change with every build, with the effect that
we get URL's that change all the time.
The ID's are manually generated and sometimes inconsistent, but
that's OK.

Most other documentation will frequently be read from an installation
of git so will naturally be associated with the installed version.
But these two documents in particular are often read from web pages
while users are still exploring git. It's important to mention
version 1.5.1 since these documents provide example commands that
won't work with previous versions of git.

git-svn dcommit exports commits to Subversion, then imports them back
to git again, and last but not least rebases or resets HEAD to the
last of the new commits. I guess this rebasing is convenient when
using just git, but when the commits to be exported are managed by
StGIT, it's really annoying. So add an option to disable this
behavior. And document it, too!

The interface is similar to the custom low-level merge drivers.
First you configure your filter driver by defining 'filter.<name>.*'
variables in the configuration.
filter.<name>.clean filter command to run upon checkin
filter.<name>.smudge filter command to run upon checkout
Then you assign filter attribute to each path, whose name
matches the custom filter driver's name.
Example:
(in .gitattributes)
*.c filter=indent
(in config)
[filter "indent"]
clean = indent
smudge = cat

The 'ident' attribute set to path squashes "$ident:<any bytes

clarify how they interact with each other.

In asciidoc 7.1.2 and prior there is no obvious way to get:
'add'ing
to emphasize only the "add", instead it treats the first apostrophe as the
beginning of an emphasis, and the second apostrophe as a regular
apostrophe and makes the rest of the line an emphasis since there is no
closing apostrophe. In the newer asciidoc you can do it pretty easily
with __add__ing but I'm not sure it would be best to make that a prereq
for something as silly as this.
