41e86a3774 filter-branch documentation: non-zero exit status in command abort the filter
Since commit 8c1ce0f46b filter-branch fails
when a <command> has a non-zero exit status. This commit makes it clear
in the documentation and also fixes the parent-filter example, that was
incorrectly returning non-zero when the commit being tested wasn't the
one to be rewritten.

2cd5dfd240 Teach git-grep --name-only as synonym for -l
I expected git grep --name-only to give me only the file names,
much as git diff --name-only only generates filenames.  Alas the
option is -l, which matches common external greps but doesn't match
other parts of the git UI.

68d06c5200 Documentation/push: clarify matching refspec behavior
The previous text was correct, but it was easy to miss the
fact that we are talking about "matching" refs. That is, the
text can be parsed as "we push the union of the sets
of remote and local heads" and not "we push the intersection
of the sets of remote and local heads". (The former actually
doesn't make sense if you think about it, since we don't
even _have_ some of those heads). A careful reading would
reveal the correct meaning, but it makes sense to be as
explicit as possible in documentation.

We also explicitly use and introduce the term "matching";
this is a term discussed on the list, and it seems useful
to for users to be able to refer to this behavior by name.

14f9e128d3 Define the project whitespace policy
This establishes what the "bad" whitespaces are for this
project.

The rules are:

 - Unless otherwise specified, indent with SP that could be
   replaced with HT are not "bad".  But SP before HT in the
   indent is "bad", and trailing whitespaces are "bad".

 - For C source files, initial indent by SP that can be replaced
   with HT is also "bad".

 - Test scripts in t/ and test vectors in its subdirectories can
   contain anything, so we make it unrestricted for now.

Anything "bad" will be shown in WHITESPACE error indicator in
diff output, and "apply --whitespace=warn" will warn about it.

I was able to solve this problem with this patch, which adds a XSL file
used specifically for DOCBOOK_XSL_172=YesPlease and where dots and
backslashes are escaped properly so they won't be substituted to the
wrong thing further down the "DocBook XSL pipeline". Doing the escaping
in the existing callout.xsl breaks v1.70.1. Hopefully v1.73 will end
this part of the manpage nightmare.
