5c47e1c7c5 repack: add -F flag to let user choose between --no-reuse-delta/object
In 479b56ba ('make "repack -f" imply "pack-objects --no-reuse-object"'),
git repack -f was changed to include recompressing all objects on the
zlib level on the assumption that if the user wants to spend that much
time already, some more time won't hurt (and recompressing is useful if
the user changed the zlib compression level).

However, "some more time" can be quite long with very big repositories,
so some users are going to appreciate being able to choose. If we are
going to give them the choice, --no-reuse-object will probably be
interesting a lot less frequently than --no-reuse-delta. Hence, this
reverts -f to the old behaviour (--no-reuse-delta) and adds a new -F
option that replaces the current -f.

Measurements taken using this patch on a current clone of git.git
indicate a 17% decrease in time being made available to users:

git repack -Adf  34.84s user 0.56s system 145% cpu 24.388 total
git repack -AdF  38.79s user 0.56s system 133% cpu 29.394 total

055467dd4a CodingGuidelines: spell Arithmetic Expansion with $(($var))
POSIX wants shells to support both "N" and "$N" and requires them to yield
the same answer to $((N)) and $(($N)), but we should aim for portability
in a case like this, especially when the price we pay to do so is so

cca5d0b04a git-reset.txt: reset --soft is not a no-op
Make it clearer that git reset --soft actually does something (changing

Also, git reset --soft does not look at the index nor the worktree, so
there is no "good order" requirement.

909a5494f8 userdiff.c: add builtin fortran regex patterns
This adds fortran xfuncname and wordRegex patterns to the list of builtin
patterns.  The intention is for the patterns to be appropriate for all
versions of fortran including 77, 90, 95.  The patterns can be enabled by
adding the diff=fortran attribute to the .gitattributes file for the
desired file glob.

This also adds a new macro named IPATTERN which is just like the PATTERNS
macro except it sets the REG_ICASE flag so that case will be ignored.

The test code in t4018 and the docs were updated as appropriate.
