If a user is working on master, and has merged in their feature branch, but now
has to "git pull" because master moved, with pull.rebase their feature branch
will be flattened into master.
This is because "git pull" currently does not know about rebase's preserve
merges flag, which would avoid this behavior, as it would instead replay just
the merge commit of the feature branch onto the new master, and not replay each
individual commit in the feature branch.
Add a --rebase=preserve option, which will pass along --preserve-merges to
rebase.
Also add 'preserve' to the allowed values for the pull.rebase config setting.

$ git log --encoding
fatal: Option '--encoding' requires a value
$ git rev-list --encoding
fatal: Option '--encoding' requires a value
The argument to --encoding has always been mandatory. Unfortunately
manpages like git-rev-list(1), git-log(1), and git-show(1) have
described the option's syntax as "--encoding[=<encoding>]" since it
was first documented. Clarify by removing the extra brackets.

Cygwin port added a "not quite correct but a lot faster and good
enough for many lstat() calls that are only used to see if the
working tree entity matches the index entry" lstat() emulation some
time ago, and it started biting us in places. This removes it and
uses the standard lstat() that comes with Cygwin.
Recent topic that uses lstat on packed-refs file is broken when
this cheating lstat is used, and this is a simplest fix that is
also the cleanest direction to go in the long run.

This reverts commit c334b87b30c1464a1ab563fe1fb8de5eaf0e5bac; the
update assumed that people only used the command to read from
"rev-list --objects" output, whose lines begin with a 40-hex object
name followed by a whitespace, but it turns out that scripts feed
random extended SHA-1 expressions (e.g. "HEAD:$pathname") in which
a whitespace has to be kept.
Stress the difference between the two with a suggestion on
when the user should use one in place of the other.

The --global section of git-config(1) currently reads like:
For writing options: write to global /.gitconfig file rather than the
^
start tilde
repository .git/config, write to $XDG_CONFIG_HOME/git/config file if
this file exists and the/.gitconfig file doesn’t.
^
end tilde
Instead of tilde (~) being interpreted literally, asciidoc subscripts
the text between the two tildes. To fix this problem, use backticks (`)
to quote all the paths in the file uniformly, just like config.txt does.

The protocol-capabilities documentation notes that any
capabilities not explicitly mentioned for receive-pack work
only for upload-pack.
Receive-pack has advertised and understood side-band-64k
since 38a81b4 (receive-pack: Wrap status reports inside
side-band-64k, 2010-02-05), but we do not mention it
explicitly. Let's do so.
Note that receive-pack does not understand side-band, which
was obsolete by that point.

The "--head" option to "git show-ref" was only to add "HEAD" to the
list of candidate refs to be filtered by the usual rules
(e.g. "--heads" that only show refs under refs/heads). Change the
meaning of the option to always show "HEAD" regardless of what
filtering will be applied to any other ref (this is a backward
incompatible change, so I may need to add an entry to the Release
Notes).
