adf60f1440 Documentation: git-log cannot use rev-list specific options
The log family and git-rev-list share the same set of options that come
from revision walking machinery, but they both have options unique to
them.  Notably, --header, --timestamp, --stdin and --quiet apply only to
rev-list.  Exclude them from the git-log documentation.

c5833f6e13 Documentation/git-filter-branch.txt: Fix description of --commit-filter
The old description was misleading and logically impossible. It claimed that
the ancestors of the original commit would be re-written to have the multiple
emitted ids as parents. Not only would this modify existing objects, but it
would create a cycle. What this actually does is pass the multiple emitted ids
to the newly-created children to use as parents.

497c83314c Documentation: convert "glossary" and "core-tutorial" to man pages
This patch renames the following documents and at the same time converts
them to the man format:

core-tutorial.txt -> gitcore-tutorial.txt
glossary.txt      -> gitglossary.txt

But as the glossary is included in the user manual and as the new
gitglossary man page cannot be included as a whole in the user manual,
the actual glossary content is now in its own "glossary-content.txt"
new file. And this file is included by both the user manual and the
gitglossary man page.

Other documents that reference the above ones are changed accordingly
and sometimes improved a little too.

74d3b23fe3 git-init: accept --bare option
It is unfortunate that "git init --bare" does not work and the only reason
why "init" did not learn its own "--bare" option is because "git --bare
init" already does the job (and as an option to the git 'potty', it is
more generic solution).

This teaches "git init" its own "--bare" option, so that both "git --bare init"
and "git init --bare" works mostly the same way.

[jc: rewrote the log message and added test]

7528f27dd6 log --graph --left-right: show left/right information in place of '*'
With the --graph option, the graph already outputs 'o' instead of '*'
for boundary commits.  Make it emit '<' or '>' when --left-right is
specified.

(This change also disables the '^' prefix for UNINTERESTING commits.
The graph code currently doesn't print anything special for these
commits, since it assumes no UNINTERESTING, non-BOUNDARY commits are
displayed.  This is potentially a bug if UNINTERESTING non-BOUNDARY
commits can actually be displayed via some code path.)

6304c29d51 diff-files: do not play --no-index games
Being able to say "git diff A B" outside a git repository and getting a
colourful version of "diff -u A B" may be nice, but such a cute hack
should not give bogus results to scripts that want to give two paths,
either or both of which happen to have been removed from the work tree,
