9e1f0a85c6 documentation: move git(7) to git(1)
As the "git" man page describes the "git" command at the end-user
level, it seems better to move it to man section 1.

ceb4cacb42 Documentation/git-reset: don't mention --mixed for selected-paths reset
The option is accepted, but that is the only form selected-paths
variant of the reset command takes, so there is no point mentioning it.
And while we're at it, use the dashless git call.

5162e69732 Documentation: rename gitlink macro to linkgit
Between AsciiDoc 8.2.2 and 8.2.3, the following change was made to the stock
Asciidoc configuration:

@@ -149,7 +153,10 @@
 # Inline macros.
 # Backslash prefix required for escape processing.
 # (?s) re flag for line spanning.
-(?su)[\\]?(?P<name>\w(\w|-)*?):(?P<target>\S*?)(\[(?P<attrlist>.*?)\])=

 (?su)[\\]?\[\[\[(?P<attrlist>[\w][\w-]*?)\]\]\]=anchor3
 # Anchor: [[id,xreflabel]]

This default regex now matches explicit values, and unfortunately in this
case gitlink was being matched by just 'link', causing the wrong inline
macro template to be applied. By renaming the macro, we can avoid being
matched by the wrong regex.

d336fc096b Documentation: quote commit messages consistently.
Documentation quotes commit messages 14 times with double-quotes, and 7
times with single-quotes. The patch turns everything to double-quotes.

A nice side effect is that documentation becomes more Windoze-friendly
as AFAIK single quotes won't work there.

d7f078b8b9 Convert update-index references in docs to add.
Since `git add` is the approved porcelain for an end-user to invoke
when they want to manipulate the index, porcelain documentation
should steer the user to this command rather than the pure plumbing
update-index.

5fe3acc43d Documentation: merge-output is not too verbose now.
We've squelched output from merge-recursive, and git-merge when
used with recursive does not attempt the trivial one first
anymore, so there won't be "Trying ... Nope." messages now.

82dca84871 Align section headers of 'git status' to new 'git add'.
Now that 'git add' is considered a first-class UI for 'update-index'
and that the 'git add' documentation states "Even modified files
must be added to the set of changes about to be committed" we should
make the output of 'git status' align with that documentation and
common usage.

So now we see a status output such as:

  # Added but not yet committed:
  #   (will commit)
  #
  #       new file: x
  #
  # Changed but not added:
  #   (use "git add file1 file2" to include for commit)
  #
  #       modified:   x
  #
  # Untracked files:
  #   (use "git add" on files to include for commit)
  #
  #       y

which just reads better in the context of using 'git add' to
manipulate a commit (and not a checkin, whatever the heck that is).

We also now support 'color.status.added' as an alias for the existing
'color.status.updated', as this alias more closely aligns with the
current output and documentation.

2b5f3ed316 Several trivial documentation touch ups.
Move incorrect asciidoc level 2 titles back to level 1.

  Show output of git-name-rev in man page example.

  Reword sentences that begin with a period (.) in asciidoc
  numbered lists to work around conversion to man page bug.

  Mention that git-repack now calls git-prune-packed
  when the -d option is passed to it.

  [imap] section headers in the config file example need to be
  contained in a literal block.  imap.pass is the proper config
  file variable to use, not imap.password.

3ae854c356 Examples of resetting.
Morten Welinder says examples of resetting is really about
recovering from botched commit/pulls.  I agree that pointers
from commands that cause a reset to be needed in the first place
would be very helpful.

Also reset examples did not mention "pull/merge" cases.

936a23420c git-reset.txt: Small fix + clarifications.
This basically translates the man-page from 'git-developerish' to plain
english, adding some almost-sample output from git-status so users can
recognize what will happen.

Also mention explicitly that --mixed updates the index, while --soft
doesn't. I understood the old text to mean "--mixed is exactly like
--soft, but verbose".

215a7ad1ef Big tool rename.
As promised, this is the "big tool rename" patch.  The primary differences
since 0.99.6 are:

  (1) git-*-script are no more.  The commands installed do not
      have any such suffix so users do not have to remember if
      something is implemented as a shell script or not.

  (2) Many command names with 'cache' in them are renamed with
      'index' if that is what they mean.

There are backward compatibility symblic links so that you and
Porcelains can keep using the old names, but the backward
compatibility support  is expected to be removed in the near
future.
