74d3b23fe3 git-init: accept --bare option
It is unfortunate that "git init --bare" does not work and the only reason
why "init" did not learn its own "--bare" option is because "git --bare
init" already does the job (and as an option to the git 'potty', it is
more generic solution).

This teaches "git init" its own "--bare" option, so that both "git --bare init"
and "git init --bare" works mostly the same way.

[jc: rewrote the log message and added test]

7528f27dd6 log --graph --left-right: show left/right information in place of '*'
With the --graph option, the graph already outputs 'o' instead of '*'
for boundary commits.  Make it emit '<' or '>' when --left-right is
specified.

(This change also disables the '^' prefix for UNINTERESTING commits.
The graph code currently doesn't print anything special for these
commits, since it assumes no UNINTERESTING, non-BOUNDARY commits are
displayed.  This is potentially a bug if UNINTERESTING non-BOUNDARY
commits can actually be displayed via some code path.)

d775734c40 cvsexportcommit: introduce -W for shared working trees (between Git and CVS)
If you have a CVS checkout, it is easy to import the CVS history by
calling "git cvsimport".  However, interacting with the CVS repository
using "git cvsexportcommit" was cumbersome, since that script assumes
separate working directories for Git and CVS.

Now, you can call cvsexportcommit with the -W option.  This will
automatically discover the GIT_DIR, and it will check out the parent
commit before exporting the commit.

The intended workflow is this:

$ CVSROOT=$URL cvs co module
$ cd module
$ git cvsimport
hack, hack, hack, making two commits, cleaning them up using rebase -i.
$ git cvsexportcommit -W -c -p -u HEAD^
$ git cvsexportcommit -W -c -p -u HEAD

The new option --ignore-submodules can now be used to ignore changes in
submodules.

Why?  Sometimes it is not interesting when a submodule changed.

For example, when reordering some commits in the superproject, a dirty
submodule is usually totally uninteresting.  So we will use this option
in git-rebase to test for a dirty working tree.

c998ae9baa Allow tracking branches to set up rebase by default.
Change cd67e4d4 introduced a new configuration parameter that told
pull to automatically perform a rebase instead of a merge.  This
change provides a configuration option to enable this feature
automatically when creating a new branch.

If the variable branch.autosetuprebase applies for a branch that's
being created, that branch will have branch.<name>.rebase set to true.

The "-u" option is described only in terms of "updating"
files, which in turn is described only as "similar to what
git commit -a does". Let's be a little more specific about
what updating entails.

This patch fixes that.

In "git-pull.txt" only the last example had the code sample in an
asciidoc "Listing Block", and in the other two files, none.
This patch fixes that by putting all code samples in listing
blocks.

ee831f7ddf git-bisect.sh: don't accidentally override existing branch "bisect"
If a branch named "bisect" or "new-bisect" already was created in the
repo by other means than git bisect, doing a git bisect used to override
the branch without a warning.  Now if the branch "bisect" or
"new-bisect" already exists, and it was not created by git bisect itself,
git bisect start fails with an appropriate error message.  Additionally,
if checking out a new bisect state fails due to a merge problem, git
bisect cleans up the temporary branch "new-bisect".

The accidental override has been noticed by Andres Salomon, reported
through

2a2ac92654 add merge.renamelimit config option
The point of rename limiting is to bound the amount of time
we spend figuring out inexact renames. Currently we use a
single value, diff.renamelimit, for all situations. However,
it is probably the case that a user is willing to spend more
time finding renames during a merge than they are while
looking at git-log.

This patch provides a way of setting those values separately
(though for backwards compatibility, merge still falls back
on the diff renamelimit).
