`*` in format strings means peeling of tag objects so that object field
names refer to the object that the tag object points at, instead of the
tag object itself.
Currently, this is documented using grammar that is clearly inspired by
classical latin, though missing more than an article in order to be
classical english.
Try and straighten that explanation out a bit.

Various commands list refs and allow to use a format string for the
output that interpolates from the ref as well as the object it points
at (for-each-ref; branch and tag in list mode).
Currently, the documentation talks about interpolating from the object.
This is confusing because a ref points to an object but not vice versa,
so the object cannot possible know %(refname), for example. Thus, this is
wrong independent of refs being objects (one day, maybe) or not.
Change the wording to make this clearer (and distinguish it from formats
for the log family).

When generating patches for the rebase command, if the user does
not realize the branch they are rebasing onto is thousands of
commits different, there is no progress indication after initial
rewinding message.
The progress meter as presented in this patch assumes the thousands of
patches to have a fine granularity as well as assuming to require all
the same amount of work/time for each, such that a steady progress bar
is achieved.
We do not want to estimate the time for each patch based e.g.
on their size or number of touched files (or parents) as that is too
expensive for just a progress meter.
This patch allows a progress option to be passed to format-patch
so that the user can be informed the progress of generating the
patch. This option is then used by the rebase command when
calling format-patch.

The "tag.pager" configuration variable was useless for those who
actually create tag objects, as it interfered with the use of an
editor. A new mechanism has been introduced for commands to enable
pager depending on what operation is being carried out to fix this,
and then "git tag -l" is made to run pager by default.
* ma/pager-per-subcommand-action:
git.c: ignore pager.* when launching builtin as dashed external
tag: change default of `pager.tag` to "on"
tag: respect `pager.tag` in list-mode only
t7006: add tests for how git tag paginates
git.c: provide setup_auto_pager()
git.c: let builtins opt for handling `pager.foo` themselves

Remove an example that is now obsolete from a sample hook,
and improve an old example in it that added a sign-off manually
to use the interpret-trailers command.
* ks/prepare-commit-msg-sample:
hook: add a simple first example
hook: add sign-off using "interpret-trailers"
hook: name the positional variables
hook: cleanup script
The only difference between these is that the former takes an argument
`name` which it ignores completely. Still, the callers are quite careful
to provide reasonable values for it.
Once in-flight topics have landed, we should be able to remove
git_config_maybe_bool. In the meantime, document it as deprecated in the
technical documentation. While at it, document git_parse_maybe_bool.

Since we're about to touch the behavior of --signed=, do this as a
preparatory step.
The documentation mentions --sign=, and it works. But that's just
because it's an unambiguous abbreviation of --signed, which is how it is
actually implemented. This was added in commit 30261094 ("push: support
signing pushes iff the server supports it", 2015-08-19). Back when that
series was developed [1] [2], there were suggestions about both --sign=
and --signed=. The final implementation settled on --signed=, but some
of the documentation and commit messages ended up using --sign=.
The option is referred to as --signed= in Documentation/config.txt
(under push.gpgSign).
One could argue that we have promised --sign for two years now, so we
should implement it as an alias for --signed. (Then we might also
deprecate the latter, something which was considered already then.) That
would be a slightly more intrusive change.
This minor issue would only be a problem once we want to implement some
other option --signfoo, but the earlier we do this step, the better.

The previous patch taught `git tag` to only respect `pager.tag` in
list-mode. That patch left the default value of `pager.tag` at "off".
After that patch, it makes sense to let the default value be "on"
instead, since it will help with listing many tags, but will not hurt
users of `git tag -a` as it would have before. Make that change. Update
documentation and tests.

Using, e.g., `git -c pager.tag tag -a new-tag` results in errors such as
"Vim: Warning: Output is not to a terminal" and a garbled terminal.
Someone who makes use of both `git tag -a` and `git tag -l` will
probably not set `pager.tag`, so that `git tag -a` will actually work,
at the cost of not paging output of `git tag -l`.
Use the mechanisms introduced in two earlier patches to ignore
`pager.tag` in git.c and let the `git tag` builtin handle it on its own.
Only respect `pager.tag` when running in list-mode.
There is a window between where the pager is started before and after
this patch. This means that early errors can behave slightly different
before and after this patch. Since operation-parsing has to happen
inside this window, this can be seen with `git -c pager.tag="echo pager
is used" tag -l --unknown-option`. This change in paging-behavior should
be acceptable since it only affects erroneous usages.
Update the documentation and update tests.
If an alias is used to run `git tag -a`, then `pager.tag` will still be
respected. Document this known breakage. It will be fixed in a later
commit. Add a similar test for `-l`, which works.
