9e1f0a85c6 documentation: move git(7) to git(1)
As the "git" man page describes the "git" command at the end-user
level, it seems better to move it to man section 1.

5348337a34 whatchanged documentation: share description of --pretty with others
The documentation had its own description for --pretty and did not
include pretty-options/formats as documentation for other commands in
the "log" family did.

5162e69732 Documentation: rename gitlink macro to linkgit
Between AsciiDoc 8.2.2 and 8.2.3, the following change was made to the stock
Asciidoc configuration:

@@ -149,7 +153,10 @@
 # Inline macros.
 # Backslash prefix required for escape processing.
 # (?s) re flag for line spanning.
-(?su)[\\]?(?P<name>\w(\w|-)*?):(?P<target>\S*?)(\[(?P<attrlist>.*?)\])=

 (?su)[\\]?\[\[\[(?P<attrlist>[\w][\w-]*?)\]\]\]=anchor3
 # Anchor: [[id,xreflabel]]

This default regex now matches explicit values, and unfortunately in this
case gitlink was being matched by just 'link', causing the wrong inline
macro template to be applied. By renaming the macro, we can avoid being
matched by the wrong regex.

a6080a0a44 War on whitespace
This uses "git-apply --whitespace=strip" to fix whitespace errors that have
crept in to our source files over time.  There are a few files that need
to have trailing whitespaces (most notably, test vectors).  The results
still passes the test, and build result in Documentation/ area is unchanged.

e994004f93 Fix up docs where "--" isn't displayed correctly.
A bare "--" doesn't show up in man or html pages correctly
as two individual dashes unless backslashed as \--
in the asciidoc source.  Note, no backslash is needed
inside a literal block.

b0d08a504b Format tweaks for asciidoc.
Some documentation "options" were followed by independent preformatted
paragraphs. Now they are associated plain text paragraphs. The
difference is clear in the generated html.

bd66361195 Add examples for git-log documentation and others.
I don't think people really follow the links or think very abstractly at
all in the first place.

So I was thinking more of some explicit examples. I actually think every
command should have an example in the man-page, and hey, here's a patch to
start things off.

Of course, I'm not exactly "Mr Documentation", and I don't know that this
is the prettiest way to do this, but I checked that the resulting html and
man-page seems at least reasonable.

And hey, if the examples look like each other, that's just because I'm
also not "Mr Imagination".

15fad5f4d7 whatchanged: document -m option from git-diff-tree.
The documentation for git-whatchanged is meant to describe only
the most frequently used options from git-diff-tree.  Because "why
doesn't it show merges" was asked more than once, we'd better
describe '-m' option there.

Linus brought up that documentation for many commands have
incorrect attribution.  I started counting lines again, but
ended up adding a handful of missing manual pages.
