45e851cb44 gitignore.txt: clarify default core.excludesfile path
The default core.excludesfile path is $XDG_CONFIG_HOME/git/ignore.
$HOME/.config/git/ignore is used if XDG_CONFIG_HOME is empty or unset,
as described later in the document.

1316416903 Documentation/gitsubmodules.txt: avoid non-ASCII apostrophes
In gitsubmodules.txt, a few non-ASCII apostrophes are used to spell
possessive, e.g. "submodule's".  These unfortunately are not
rendered at https://git-scm.com/docs/gitsubmodules correctly by the
renderer used there.

Use ASCII apostrophes instead to work around the problem.  It also
is good to be consistent, as there are possessives spelled with
ASCII apostrophes.

d023df1ee6 git-worktree.txt: fix indentation of example and text of 'add' command
When 4e85333197 (worktree: make add <path> <branch> dwim, 2017-11-26)
added an example command in a literal code block, it neglected to
insert a mandatory "+" line before the block. This omission resulted
in both the literal code block and the (existing) paragraph following
the block to be outdented, even though they should be indented under
the 'add' sub-command along with the rest of the text pertaining to
that command. Furthermore, the mandatory "+" line separating the code
block from the following text got rendered as a leading character on
the line ("+ If <commit-ish>...") rather than being treated as a
formatting directive.

Fix these problems by adding the missing "+" line before the example
code block.

While at it, add a missing ":" at the end of the same sentence since
it precedes an example literal command block.

e4e5da2796 Documentation/git-status: clarify status table for porcelain mode
It is possible to have the output ' A' from 'git status --porcelain'
by adding a file using the '--intend-to-add' flag.  Make this clear by
adding the pattern in the table of the documentation.

However the mode 'DM' (deleted in the index, modified in the working tree)
is not possible in the non-merge case in which the file only shows
as 'D ' (and adding it back to the worktree would show an additional line
of an '??' untracked file). It is also not possible in the merge case as
then the mode involves a 'U' on one side of the merge.
Remove that pattern.

2e22a85e5c gitignore.txt: elaborate shell glob syntax
`fnmatch(3)` is a great mention if the intended audience is
programmers. For normal users it's probably better to spell out what
a shell glob is.

This paragraph is updated to roughly tell (or remind) what the main
wildcards are supposed to do. All the details are still hidden away
behind the `fnmatch(3)` wall because bringing the whole specification
here may be too much.

When 'git show' is called without any object it defaults to HEAD.  This
has been true since d4ed9793fd ("Simplify common default options setup
for built-in log family.", 2006-04-16).

The SYNOPSIS suggests that the object argument is required.  Clarify
that it is not required and note the default.

8ba18e6fa4 http: support omitting data from traces
GIT_TRACE_CURL provides a way to debug what is being sent and received
over HTTP, with automatic redaction of sensitive information. But it
also logs data transmissions, which significantly increases the log file
size, sometimes unnecessarily. Add an option "GIT_TRACE_CURL_NO_DATA" to
allow the user to omit such data transmissions.

9bd2ce5432 cat-file doc: document that -e will return some output
The -e option added in 7950571ad7 ("A few more options for
git-cat-file", 2005-12-03) has always errored out with message on
stderr saying that the provided object is malformed, like this:

    $ git cat-file -e malformed; echo $?
    fatal: Not a valid object name malformed
    128

A reader of this documentation may be misled into thinking that

    if ! git cat-file -e "$object" [...]

as opposed to:

    if ! git cat-file -e "$object" 2>/dev/null [...]

is sufficient to implement a truly silent test that checks whether
some arbitrary $object string was both valid, and pointed to an
object that exists.
