"git rebase -i" learned a new insn, 'break', that the user can
insert in the to-do list. Upon hitting it, the command returns
control back to the user.

"git send-email" learned to grab address-looking string on any
trailer whose name ends with "-by"; --suppress-cc=misc-by on the
command line, or setting sendemail.suppresscc configuration
variable to "misc-by", can be used to disable this behaviour.
This is a backward-incompatible change that may surprise existing
users.

git-p4: do not fail in verbose mode for missing 'fileSize' key
The documentation of "git gc" has been updated to mention that it

"git cmd --help" when "cmd" is aliased used to only say "cmd is
aliased to ...". Now it shows that to the standard error stream
and runs "git $cmd --help" where $cmd is the first word of the
alias expansion.
This could be misleading for those who alias a command with options
(e.g. with "[alias] cpn = cherry-pick -n", "git cpn --help" would
show the manual of "cherry-pick", and the reader would not be told
to pay close attention to the part that describes the "--no-commit"
option until closing the pager that showed the contents of the
manual, if the pager is configured to restore the original screen,
or would not be told at all, if the pager simply makes the message
on the standard error scroll away.
* rv/alias-help:
git-help.txt: document "git help cmd" vs "git cmd --help" for aliases
git.c: handle_alias: prepend alias info when first argument is -h
help: redirect to aliased commands for "git cmd --help"
Without passing --allow-unrelated-histories the command sequence
fails as intended since commit e379fdf34f ("merge: refuse to create
too cool a merge by default"). To setup a subtree merging unrelated
histories is normal, so add the option to the howto document.

When pushing into a repository that borrows its objects from an
alternate object store, "git receive-pack" that responds to the
push request on the other side lists the tips of refs in the
alternate to reduce the amount of objects transferred. This
sometimes is detrimental when the number of refs in the alternate
is absurdly large, in which case the bandwidth saved in potentially
fewer objects transferred is wasted in excessively large ref
advertisement. The alternate refs that are advertised are now
configurable with a pair of configuration variables.

"git help -a" and "git help -av" give different pieces of

original). Also "git help -av" now lists aliases and external
commands, which it did not used to.

When rerolling a patch series, including various Reviewed-by etc. that

automatically cc those people.
So pick up any *-by lines, with a new suppression category 'misc-by',
but special-case Signed-off-by, since that already has its own
suppression category. It seems natural to make 'misc-by' implied by
'body'.

"gc --auto" ended up calling exit(-1) upon error, which has been
corrected to use exit(1). Also the error reporting behaviour when

failure in such a case.

The previous git-p4 unshelve support would check for changes
in Perforce to the files being unshelved since the original
shelve, and would complain if any were found.
This was to ensure that the user wouldn't end up with both the
shelved change delta, and some deltas from other changes in their
git commit.
e.g. given fileA:
the
quick
brown
fox
change1: s/the/The/ <- p4 shelve this change
change2: s/fox/Fox/ <- p4 submit this change
git p4 unshelve 1 <- FAIL
This change teaches the P4Unshelve class to always create a parent
commit which matches the P4 tree (for the files being unshelved) at
the point prior to the P4 shelve being created (which is reported
in the p4 description for a shelved changelist).
That then means git-p4 can always create a git commit matching the
P4 shelve that was originally created, without any extra deltas.
The user might still need to use the --origin option though - there
is no way for git-p4 to work out the versions of all of the other
*unchanged* files in the shelve, since this information is not recorded
by Perforce.
Additionally this fixes handling of shelved 'move' operations.

The 'edit' command can be used to cherry-pick a commit and then
immediately drop out of the interactive rebase, with exit code 0, to let
the user amend the commit, or test it, or look around.
Sometimes this functionality would come in handy *without*
cherry-picking a commit, e.g. to interrupt the interactive rebase even
before cherry-picking a commit, or immediately after an 'exec' or a
'merge'.
This commit introduces that functionality, as the spanking new 'break'
command.

Explicitly mention in the intro that we may be writing supplemental
data structures such as the commit-graph during "gc", i.e. to call out
the "optimize" part of what this command does, it doesn't just
"collect garbage" as the "gc" name might imply.
Past changes have updated the intro to reflect new commands, such as
mentioning "worktree" in b586a96a39 ("gc.txt: more details about what
gc does", 2018-03-15). So let's elaborate on what was added in
d5d5d7b641 ("gc: automatically write commit-graph files", 2018-06-27).
