c97038d1cf git-rerere.txt: grammatical fixups and cleanups
Rewrite the gc section using unresolved and resolved instead of "not
recorded". Add plurals and missing articles. Make some sentences have
consistent tense. Try and be more active by removing "that" and
simplifying sentences.

The terms "hand-resolve" and "hand resolve" were used, so just use "hand
resolve" to be more consistent.

0f4f4d1597 asciidoc markup fixes
I see quite a few pages on k.org site, e.g.

    http://www.kernel.org/pub/software/scm/git/docs/git-rerere.html
    (scroll down to find "After this test merge")

are misformatted to lose teletype text '+' that is followed by a comma,
and turns the following paragraph all typeset in teletype.

This patch seems to fix the issue at the site (meaning, with the
particular vintage of asciidoc and docbook toolchain), without breaking
things with the version I have at my primary development machine, but
wider testing is very much appreciated.

After this patch,

    git grep '`+`,' -- Documentation

should report noting.

2fd02c92db manpages: italicize nongit command names (if they are in teletype font)
Some manual pages use teletype font to set command names. We
change them to use italics, instead.  This creates a visual
distinction between names of commands and command lines that
can be typed at the command line. It is also more consistent
with other man pages outside Git.

In this patch, the commands named are non-git commands like bash.

ba020ef5eb manpages: italicize git command names (which were in teletype font)
The names of git commands are not meant to be entered at the
commandline; they are just names. So we render them in italics,
as is usual for command names in manpages.

Using

	doit () {
	  perl -e 'for (<>) { s/\`(git-[^\`.]*)\`/'\''\1'\''/g; print }'
	}
	for i in git*.txt config.txt diff*.txt blame*.txt fetch*.txt i18n.txt \
	        merge*.txt pretty*.txt pull*.txt rev*.txt urls*.txt
	do
	  doit <"$i" >"$i+" && mv "$i+" "$i"
	done
	git diff

.

467c0197fd Documentation: more "git-" versus "git " changes
With git-commands moving out of $(bindir), it is useful to make a
clearer distinction between the git subcommand 'git-whatever' and
the command you type, `git whatever <options>`.  So we use a dash
after "git" when referring to the former and not the latter.

I already sent a patch doing this same thing, but I missed some
spots.

483bc4f045 Documentation formatting and cleanup
Following what appears to be the predominant style, format
names of commands and commandlines both as `teletype text`.

While we're at it, add articles ("a" and "the") in some
places, italicize the name of the command in the manual page
synopsis line, and add a comma or two where it seems appropriate.

b1889c36d8 Documentation: be consistent about "git-" versus "git "
Since the git-* commands are not installed in $(bindir), using
"git-command <parameters>" in examples in the documentation is
not a good idea. On the other hand, it is nice to be able to
refer to each command using one hyphenated word. (There is no
escaping it, anyway: man page names cannot have spaces in them.)

This patch retains the dash in naming an operation, command,
program, process, or action. Complete command lines that can
be entered at a shell (i.e., without options omitted) are
made to use the dashless form.

The changes consist only of replacing some spaces with hyphens
and vice versa. After a "s/ /-/g", the unpatched and patched
versions are identical.

Between AsciiDoc 8.2.2 and 8.2.3, the following change was made to the stock
Asciidoc configuration:

 # Inline macros.
 # Backslash prefix required for escape processing.
 # (?s) re flag for line spanning.

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.

b4372ef136 Enable "git rerere" by the config variable rerere.enabled
Earlier, "git rerere" was enabled by creating the directory
.git/rr-cache.  That is definitely not in line with most other
features, which are enabled by a config variable.

So, check the config variable "rerere.enabled". If it is set
to "false" explicitely, do not activate rerere, even if
.git/rr-cache exists. This should help when you want to disable
rerere temporarily.

If "rerere.enabled" is not set at all, fall back to detection
of the directory .git/rr-cache.

c14261eaa2 some doc updates
1) talk about "git merge" instead of "git pull ."

2) suggest "git repo-config" instead of directly editing config files

3) echo "URL: blah" > .git/remotes/foo is obsolete and should be
   "git repo-config remote.foo.url blah"

4) support for partial URL prefix has been removed (see commit
   ea560e6d64) so drop mention of it.

8389b52b2a git-rerere: reuse recorded resolve.
In a workflow that employs relatively long lived topic branches,
the developer sometimes needs to resolve the same conflict over
and over again until the topic branches are done (either merged
to the "release" branch, or sent out and accepted upstream).

This commit introduces a new command, "git rerere", to help this
process by recording the conflicted automerge results and
corresponding hand-resolve results on the initial manual merge,
and later by noticing the same conflicted automerge and applying
the previously recorded hand resolution using three-way merge.
