e8b404c27e git-branch: add support for --merged and --no-merged
These options filter the output from git branch to only include branches
whose tip is either merged or not merged into HEAD.

The use-case for these options is when working with integration of branches
from many remotes: `git branch --no-merged -a` will show a nice list of merge
candidates while `git branch --merged -a` will show the progress of your
integration work.

Also, a plain `git branch --merged` is a quick way to find local branches
which you might want to delete.

f01f81505a Document that WebDAV doesn't need git on the server, and works over SSL
I managed to set up a Git repository on a preconfigured WebDAV server,
and using HTTPS, without installing Git on it or changing the server
configuration. This works through a proxy too. This patch reflects
this (it previously stated that Git was _necessary_ on the server,
which isn't true). Also give a few hints to troubleshoting.

2c2d02a6a7 Clarify documentation of git-cvsserver, particularly in relation to git-shell
For SSH clients restricted to git-shell, CVS_SERVER does not have to be
specified, because git-shell understands the default value of 'cvs' to
mean git-cvsserver'. This makes it totally transparent to CVS users, but
the instruction to set up CVS access for people with real shell access
does not apply.

Previous wording mentioning GIT_AUTHOR, GIT_COMMITTER variables was
unclear that we really meant GIT_AUTHOR_(NAME|EMAIL), etc.

Note that the .ssh/environment file is a good place to set these, and that
the .bashrc is shell-specific. Add a bit of text to differentiate cvs -d
(setting CVSROOT) from cvs co -d (setting the name of the newly checked
out directory).  Removed an extra 'Example:' string.

ac8d5afca6 builtin-status: submodule summary support
This commit teaches 'git commit/status' show a new 'Modified submodules'
section, which is an output from:

  git submodule summary --cached --for-status --summary-limit <limit>

just before the 'Untracked files' section.

The <limit> is given by the config variable status.submodulesummary
to limit the submodule summary size. status.submodulesummary is a
bool/int variable with value:

  - false or 0 by default to disable the summary, or
  - positive number to limit the summary size, or
  - true or negative number to unlimit the summary size.

Also mention status.submodulesummary in the documentation.

243a60fbb5 bisect: add "git bisect help" subcommand to get a long usage string
Users are not often aware of the fact that "git bisect -h" can give
them a long usage description, as "git bisect" seems to accept only
dashless subcommands like "start", "good", ...

That's why this patch adds a "git bisect help" subcommand that just
calls "git bisect -h". This new subcommand is also fully documented
in the short usage string (that "git bisect" gives), in the long
usage string and in the man page (that "git help bisect" gives).

The --root option from "git diff-tree" won't do nothing
when is given to commands like git-whatchanged or git-log,
because those always print the initial commit by default.

This fixes the tutorial explaining the function of the
log.showroot configuration variable.

3f36cbbaaf Fix documentation syntax of optional arguments in short options.
When an argument for an option is optional, like in -n from git-tag,
puting a space between the option and the argument is interpreted
as a missing argument for the option plus an isolated argument.
Documentation now reflects the need to write the parameter following
the option -n, as in "git tag -nARG", for instance.
