0ac3056850 Documentation: clarify refname disambiguation rules.
Nobody should create ambiguous refs (i.e. have tag "foobar" and branch
"foobar" at the same time) that need to be disambiguated with these
rules to keep sanity, but the rules are there so document them.

54bd25580e escape tilde in Documentation/git-rev-parse.txt
Fixes a failure to build the git-rev-parse manpage, seen with
asciidoc 8.0.0

We would love to use nicer quoting $$~$$ but alas asciidoc 7
does not know about it.  So use asciidoc.conf and define {tilde}
to be &#126;.

cce91a2cae Change 'master@noon' syntax to 'master@{noon}'.
Its ambiguous to parse "master@2006-05-17 18:30:foo" when foo is
meant as a file name and ":30" is meant as 30 minutes past 6 pm.
Therefore all date specifications in a sha1 expression must now
appear within brackets and the ':' splitter used for the path name
in a sha1 expression ignores ':' appearing within brackets.

d556fae2c0 Support 'master@2 hours ago' syntax
Extended sha1 expressions may now include date specifications
which indicate a point in time within the local repository's
history.  If the ref indicated to the left of '@' has a log in
$GIT_DIR/logs/<ref> then the value of the ref at the time indicated
by the specification is obtained from the ref's log.

a62be77f5e Add "--branches", "--tags" and "--remotes" options to git-rev-parse.
"git branch" uses "rev-parse --all" and becomes much too slow when
there are many tags (it scans all refs).  Use the new "--branches"
option of rev-parse to speed things up.

5f94c730f3 rev-parse: --show-cdup
When --show-prefix is useful, sometimes it is easier to cd up to
the toplevel of the tree.  This is equivalent to:

    git rev-parse --show-prefix | sed -e 's|[^/][^/]*|..|g'

but we do not have to invoke sed for that.
