bbf431c9ae doc: fix inconsistent spelling of "packfile"
Fix remaining instances where "pack-file" is used instead of
"packfile". Some places remain where we still use "pack-file",
This is the case when we explicitly refer to a file with a
".pack" extension as opposed to a data source providing a pack
data stream.

eb8dc05c3d pull: make pull.ff=true override merge.ff
Since b814da8 (pull: add pull.ff configuration, 2014-01-15), running
git-pull with the configuration pull.ff=false or pull.ff=only is
equivalent to passing --no-ff and --ff-only to git-merge. However, if
pull.ff=true, no switch is passed to git-merge. This leads to the
confusing behavior where pull.ff=false or pull.ff=only is able to
override merge.ff, while pull.ff=true is unable to.

Fix this by adding the --ff switch if pull.ff=true, and add a test to
catch future regressions.

Furthermore, clarify in the documentation that pull.ff overrides
merge.ff.

d0258b93e6 doc: convert AsciiDoc {?foo} to ifdef::foo[]
The former seems to just be syntactic sugar for the latter.
And as it's sugar that AsciiDoctor doesn't understand, it
would be nice to avoid it. Since there are only two spots,
and the resulting source is not significantly harder to
read, it's worth doing.

Note that this does slightly affect the generated HTML (it
has an extra newline), but the rendered result for both HTML
and docbook should be the same (since the newline is not
syntactically significant there).

4538a88256 doc: drop backslash quoting of some curly braces
Text like "{foo}" triggers an AsciiDoc attribute; we have to
write "\{foo}" to suppress this. But when the "foo" is not a
syntactically valid attribute, we can skip the quoting. This
makes the source nicer to read, and looks better under
Asciidoctor. With AsciiDoc itself, this patch produces no
changes.

1c262bb7b2 doc: convert \--option to --option
Older versions of AsciiDoc would convert the "--" in
"--option" into an emdash. According to 565e135
(Documentation: quote double-dash for AsciiDoc, 2011-06-29),
this is fixed in AsciiDoc 8.3.0. According to bf17126, we
don't support anything older than 8.4.1 anyway, so we no
longer need to worry about quoting.

Even though this does not change the output at all, there
are a few good reasons to drop the quoting:

  1. It makes the source prettier to read.

  2. We don't quote consistently, which may be confusing when
     reading the source.

  3. Asciidoctor does not like the quoting, and renders a
     literal backslash.

All of the other options in the list put short and long as
two separate headings.

We can also drop the backslashing of `--`. It isn't used
elsewhere and is unnecessary for modern asciidoc (plus it
confuses asciidoctor).

a367b8699d doc: fix length of underlined section-title
In AsciiDoc, it is OK to say:

   this is my title
   -------------------------

but AsciiDoctor is more strict. Let's match the underline to
the title (which also makes the source prettier to read).
The output from AsciiDoc is the same either way.

b50bfb8fd5 doc: fix unquoted use of "{type}"
Curly braces open an "attribute" in AsciiDoc; if there's no
such attribute, strange things may happen. In this case, the
unquoted "{type}" causes AsciiDoc to omit an entire line of
text from the output. We can fix it by putting the whole
phrase inside literal backticks (which also lets us get rid
of ugly backslash escaping).

e08bc7a9ec doc: fix misrendering due to `single quote'
AsciiDoc misparses some text that contains a `literal`
word followed by a fancy `single quote' word, and treats
everything from the start of the literal to the end of the
quote as a single-quoted phrase.

We can work around this by switching the latter to be a
literal, as well. In the first case, this is perhaps what
was intended anyway, as it makes us consistent with the the
earlier literals in the same paragraph. In the second, the
output is arguably better, as we will format our commit
references as <code> blocks.

ad3967a5a2 doc: fix unmatched code fences in git-stripspace
The asciidoctor renderer is more picky than classic asciidoc,
and insists that the start and end of a code fence be the
same size.

Found with this hacky perl script:

    foreach my $fn (@ARGV) {
      open(my $fh, '<', $fn);
      my ($fence, $fence_lineno, $prev);
      while (<$fh>) {
        chomp;
        if (/^----+$/) {
          if ($fence_lineno) {
            if ($_ ne $fence) {
              print "$fn:$fence_lineno:mismatched fence: ",
                    length($fence), " != ", length($_), "\n";
            }
            $fence_lineno = undef;
          }
	  # hacky check to avoid title-underlining
          elsif ($prev eq '' || $prev eq '+') {
            $fence = $_;
            $fence_lineno = $.;
          }
        }
        $prev = $_;
      }
