1d52b02696 Documentation: minor grammatical fixes and rewording in git-bundle.txt
This commit also converts all reference specifications to a monospaced font,
as the embedded ~ character used in some of the references sometimes causes
the text up to the next ~ to be displayed incorrectly as a subscript when the
HTML pages are generated. This was tested with asciidoc 8.2.5.

b60df87a6b format-patch: --numbered-files and --stdout aren't mutually exclusive
For example:

    git format-patch --numbered-files --stdout --attach HEAD~~

will create two messages with files 1 and 2 attached respectively.
Without --attach/--inline but with --stdout, --numbered-files option
can be simply ignored, because we are not creating any file ourselves.

821d56aa68 doc: clarify how -S works
The existing text was very vague about what exactly it means
for difference to "contain" a change. This seems to cause
confusion on the mailing list every month or two.

To fix it we:

  1. use "introduce or remove an instance of" instead of
     "contain"

  2. point the user to gitdiffcore(7), which contains a more
     complete explanation

665d3e8f05 Display warning for default git push with no push.default config
If a git push without any refspecs is attempted, display a warning.
The current default behavior is to push all matching refspecs, which
may come as a surprise to new users, so the warning shows how
push.default can be configured and what the possible values are.

Traditionalists who wish to keep the current behaviour are also told
how to configure this once and never see the warning again.

521537476f New config push.default to decide default behavior for push
When "git push" is not told what refspecs to push, it pushes all matching
branches to the current remote.  For some workflows this default is not
useful, and surprises new users.  Some have even found that this default
behaviour is too easy to trigger by accident with unwanted consequences.

Introduce a new configuration variable "push.default" that decides what
action git push should take if no refspecs are given or implied by the
command line arguments or the current remote configuration.

Possible values are:

  'nothing'  : Push nothing;
  'matching' : Current default behaviour, push all branches that already
               exist in the current remote;
  'tracking' : Push the current branch to whatever it is tracking;
  'current'  : Push the current branch to a branch of the same name,
               i.e. HEAD.

dcb11263bc Documentation: remove extra quoting/emphasis around literal texts
If literal text (asciidoc `...`) can be rendered in a differently from
normal text for each output format (man, HTML), then we do not need
extra quotes or other wrapping around inline literal text segments.

config.txt

  Change '`...`' to `...`. In asciidoc, the single quotes provide
  emphasis, literal text should be distintive enough.

  Change "`...`" to `...`. These double quotes do not work if present
  in the described config value, so drop them.

git-checkout.txt

  Change "`...`" to `...` or `"..."`. All instances are command line
  argument examples. One "`-`" becomes `-`. Two others are involve
  curly braces, so move the double quotes inside the literal region to
  indicate that they might need to be quoted on the command line of
  certain shells (tcsh).

git-merge.txt

  Change "`...`" to `...`. All instances are used to describe merge
  conflict markers. The quotes should are not important.

git-rev-parse.txt

  Change "`...`" to `...`. All instances are around command line
  arguments where no in-shell quoting should be necessary.

gitcli.txt

  Change `"..."` to `...`. All instances are around command line
  examples or single command arguments. They do not semanticly belong
  inside the literal text, and they are not needed outside it.

glossary-content.txt
user-manual.txt

  Change "`...`" to `...`. All instances were around command lines.
