9e7673ed7f gitremote-helpers(1): clarify refspec behaviour
The documentation says that "If no 'refspec' capability is advertised,
there is an implied `refspec *:*`" but this is only the case for the
"import" command.

Since there is a comment in transport-helper.c indicating that this
default is for historical reasons, change the documentation to clarify
that a refspec should always be specified.

8e12ab2f33 Merge branch 'jk/remote-helpers-doc'
"git help remote-helpers" did not work; 'remote-helpers' is not
a subcommand name but a concept, so its documentation should have
been in gitremote-helpers, not git-remote-helpers.

* jk/remote-helpers-doc:
  Rename {git- => git}remote-helpers.txt

bd4a3d6168 Rename {git- => git}remote-helpers.txt
When looking up a topic via "git help <topic>", git-help prepends "git-"
to topics that are the names of commands (either builtin or found on the
path) and "git" (no hyphen) to any other topic name.

"git-remote-helpers" is not the name of a command, so "git help
remote-helpers" looks for "gitremote-helpers" and does not find it.

Fix this by renaming "git-remote-helpers.txt" to
"gitremote-helpers.txt".
