dee48c3c7e git-merge: document but discourage the historical syntax
Historically "git merge" took its command line arguments in a
rather strange order.  Document the historical syntax, and also
document clearly that it is not encouraged in new scripts.

There is no reason to deprecate the historical syntax, as the
current code can sanely tell which syntax the caller is using,
and existing scripts by people do use the historical syntax.

3b27428b9d core-tutorial: Catch up with current Git
No longer talk about Cogito since it's deprecated.  Some scripts (such as
git-reset or git-branch) have undergone builtinification so adjust the text
to reflect this.

Fix a typo in the description of git-show-branch (merges are indicated by a
`-', not by a `.').

git-pull/git-push do not seem to use the dumb git-ssh-fetch/git-ssh-upload
(the text was probably missing a word).

Adjust a link that wasn't rendered properly because it was wrapped.

71b0251cdd Bisect run: "skip" current commit if script exit code is 125.
This is incompatible with previous versions because an exit code
of 125 used to mark current commit as "bad". But hopefully this exit
code is not much used by test scripts or other programs. (126 and 127
are used by POSIX compliant shells to mean "found but not
executable" and "command not found", respectively.)

e3fa2c761f mergetool: use path to mergetool in config var mergetool.<tool>.path
This commit adds a mechanism to provide absolute paths to the
external programs called by 'git mergetool'. A path can be
specified in the configuation variable mergetool.<tool>.path.
The configuration variable is similar to how we name branches
and remotes. It is extensible if we need to specify more details
about a tool.

The mechanism is especially useful on Windows, where external
programs are unlikely to be in PATH.

ff9054627c git-rebase: document suppression of duplicate commits
git-rebase uses format-patch's --ignore-if-in-upstream

example is placed near the top of the example list rather
than at the bottom because it is:
  a. a simple example
  b. a reasonably common scenario for many projects (mail
     some patches which get accepted upstream, then rebase)

2e13e5d892 Merge branch 'master' into db/fetch-pack
There's a number of tricky conflicts between master and
this topic right now due to the rewrite of builtin-push.
Junio must have handled these via rerere; I'd rather not
deal with them again so I'm pre-merging master into the
topic.  Besides this topic somehow started to depend on
the strbuf series that was in next, but is now in master.
It no longer compiles on its own without the strbuf API.

If I'm handed a file, then it typically lives outside the

so the first 'filename' should be an in-tree one, or it should
look at all files.  This patch does the latter, so it would
also find renamed files.  However, it is also slower.
