Secondly drop the quotes around '.mailmap' since this exposes
a bug in our toolchain (didn't bother enough yet to find out wether
it is asciidoc's fault or that of the XSL templates) that leads to
the dot not getting escaped correctly in the roff output and thereby

I used "git branches" there and changed "heads" to "branches" in
my section about database configuration. I'm reluctant to replace
all occourences of "head" with "branch" though because you always
have to say "git branch" because CVS also has the concept of
branches. You can say "head" though, because there is no such
concept in CVS. In all the existing occourences of head other than
the one I changed I think "head" flows better in the text.

Prior to 1.5.0 the git-lost-found utility was useful to locate
commits that were not referenced by any ref. These were often
amends, or resets, or tips of branches that had been deleted.
Being able to locate a 'lost' commit and recover it by creating a
new branch was a useful feature in those days.
Unfortunately 1.5.0 added the reflogs to the reachability analysis
performed by git-fsck, which means that most commits users would
consider to be lost are still reachable through a reflog. So most
(or all!) commits are reachable, and nothing gets output from
git-lost-found.
Now git-fsck can be told to ignore reflogs during its reachability
analysis, making git-lost-found useful again to locate commits
that are no longer referenced by a ref itself, but may still be
referenced by a reflog.

This corrects the interface mistake of the previous one, and
gives a command line parameter to the only plumbing command that
currently needs it: "git-read-tree".
We can add the calls to set_alternate_index_output() to other
plumbing commands that update the index if/when needed.
Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>
When defined, this allows plumbing commands that update the
index (add, apply, checkout-index, merge-recursive, mv,
read-tree, rm, update-index, and write-tree) to write their
resulting index to an alternative index file while holding a
lock to the original index file. With this, git-commit that
jumps the index does not have to make an extra copy of the index
file, and more importantly, it can do the update while holding
the lock on the index.
However, I think the interface to let an environment variable
specify the output is a mistake, as shown in the documentation.
If a curious user has the environment variable set to something
other than the file GIT_INDEX_FILE points at, almost everything
will break. This should instead be a command line parameter to
tell these plumbing commands to write the result in the named
file, to prevent stupid mistakes.

Please see http://bugs.debian.org/404795:
In git-rev-parse(1), there is an example commit tree, which is used twice.
The explanation for this tree is very clear: B and C are commit *parents* to
A.
However, when the tree is reused as an example in the SPECIFYING RANGES, the
manpage author screws up and uses A as a commit *parent* to B and C! I.e.,
he inverts the tree.
And the fact that for this example you need to read the tree backwards is
not explained anywhere (and it would be confusing even if it was).
