4f9dcf7e5c Remove 'Previously this command was known as ...' messages.
For a 1.0 release, there is no need to maintain the
historical "Previously this command was known as..."
information on the doc splash page.  It is noise;
command names should stand on their own now.

0fe51391a8 Retire git-export.
git-export was done as a concept example on how easy it is to export
the git data to something else. It's much less powerful than any
number of trivial one-liner scripts now, and real exporters would not
ever use git-export.

It's obviously much less powerful than "git-whatchanged", or just
about any combination of git-rev-list + git-diff-tree.

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.

f9253394a2 [PATCH] Add git-verify-pack command.
Given a list of <pack>.idx files, this command validates the
index file and the corresponding .pack file for consistency.

This patch also uses the same validation mechanism in fsck-cache
when the --full flag is used.

During normal operation, sha1_file.c verifies that a given .idx
file matches the .pack file by comparing the SHA1 checksum
stored in .idx file and .pack file as a minimum sanity check.
We may further want to check the pack signature and version when
we map the pack, but that would be a separate patch.

Earlier, errors to map a pack file was not flagged fatal but led
to a random fatal error later.  This version explicitly die()s
when such an error is detected.
