Both AsciiDoc and Asciidoctor are eager to pick up the e-mail addresses
in this document and turn them into references at the bottom of the
manpage / clickable links. We don't really need that for these dummy
addresses. Spell "@" as "@" to make them not do this. In the open
block, we can instead avoid this by indenting the contents, similar to
the earlier blocks.
Fix a backtick which should have been a single quote mark. With all the
quoting that is going on around here, this mistake trips up the parsing

We currently don't show any examples of using git-rev-list at all. Let's
add some pretty elementary examples. They likely seem obvious to anybody
who has worked with the tool for a while, but my purpose here is
two-fold:
- they may be enlightening to people who haven't used the tool a lot
to give a general flavor of how it is meant to be used
- they can serve as a starting point for adding more interesting
examples (we can do that without the basic ones, of course, but I
think it makes sense to show off the building blocks)
This set is far from exhaustive, but again, the purpose is to be a
starting point for further additions.

When `git blame --color-by-age`, the determine_line_heat() is called to
select how to color the output based on the commit's author date. It
uses the get_commit_info() to parse the information into a `commit_info`
structure, however, this is actually unnecessary because the
determine_line_heat() caller also does the same.
Instead, let's change the determine_line_heat() to take a `commit_info`
structure and remove the internal call to get_commit_info() thus
cleaning up and optimizing the code path.
Enabling Git's trace2 API in order to record the execution time for
every call to determine_line_heat() function:
+ trace2_region_enter("blame", "determine_line_heat", the_repository);
determine_line_heat(ent, &default_color);
+ trace2_region_enter("blame", "determine_line_heat", the_repository);
Then, running `git blame` for "kernel/fork.c" in linux.git and summing
all the execution time for every call (around 1.3k calls) resulted in
2.6x faster execution (best out 3):

With --temp (or --stage=all, which implies --temp), checkout-index
writes a list to stdout associating temporary file names to the entries'
names. But if it fails to write an entry, and the failure happens before
even assigning a temporary filename to that entry, we get an odd output
line. This can be seen when trying to check out a symlink whose blob is
missing:
$ missing_blob=$(git hash-object --stdin </dev/null)
$ git update-index --add --cacheinfo 120000,$missing_blob,foo
$ git checkout-index --temp foo
error: unable to read sha1 file of foo (e69de29bb2)
foo
The 'TAB foo' line is not much useful and it might break scripts that
expect the 'tempname TAB foo' output. So let's omit such entries from
the stdout list (but leaving the error message on stderr).
We could also consider omitting _all_ failed entries from the output
list, but that's probably not a good idea as the associated tempfiles
may have been created even when checkout failed, so scripts may want to
use the output list for cleanup.

The variables `path` and `ce->name`, at write_entry(), usually have the
same contents, but that's not the case when using a checkout prefix or
writing to a tempfile. (In fact, `path` will be either empty or dirty
when writing to a tempfile.) Therefore, these variables cannot be used
interchangeably. In this sense, fix wrong uses of `path` in error
messages where it should really be `ce->name`, and add some regression
tests. (Note: there doesn't seem to be any misuse in the other way
around.)

In the implementation of "git difftool", there is a case where the
user wants to start viewing the diffs at a specific path and
continue on to the rest, optionally wrapping around to the
beginning. Since it is somewhat cumbersome to implement such a
feature as a post-processing step of "git diff" output, let's
support it internally with two new options.
- "git diff --rotate-to=C", when the resulting patch would show
paths A B C D E without the option, would "rotate" the paths to
shows patch to C D E A B instead. It is an error when there is
no patch for C is shown.
- "git diff --skip-to=C" would instead "skip" the paths before C,
and shows patch to C D E. Again, it is an error when there is no
patch for C is shown.
- "git log [-p]" also accepts these two options, but it is not an
error if there is no change to the specified path. Instead, the
set of output paths are rotated or skipped to the specified path
or the first path that sorts after the specified path.

When commands are started from a subdirectory, they may have to
compare the path to the subdirectory (called prefix and found out
from $(pwd)) with the tracked paths. On macOS, $(pwd) and
readdir() yield decomposed path, while the tracked paths are
usually normalized to the precomposed form, causing mismatch. This
has been fixed by taking the same approach used to normalize the
command line arguments.
