The documentation for 'git merge --abort' and 'git merge --quit' both
mention the special ref 'MERGE_AUTOSTASH', but this ref is not formally
defined anywhere. Mention it in the description of the '--autostash'
option for 'git merge'.

The variable 'best_strategy' holds the name of the merge strategy that
resulted in fewer conflicts, if several strategies were tried. When
that's the case but the best strategy was not the first one tried, we
inform the user which strategy was the "best" one before recreating the
merge and leaving the conflicted files in the tree.
This informational message is missing the word "strategy", so it shows
something like:
Using the recursive to prepare resolving by hand.
Fix that.

In general, we encourage users to use plumbing commands, like git
rev-list, over porcelain commands, like git log, when scripting.
However, git rev-list has one glaring problem that prevents it from
being used in certain cases: when --pretty is used with a custom format,
it always prints out a line containing "commit" and the object ID. This
makes it unsuitable for many scripting needs, and forces users to use
git log instead.
While we can't change this behavior for backwards compatibility, we can
add an option to suppress this behavior, so let's do so, and call it
"--no-commit-header". Additionally, add the corresponding positive
option to switch it back on.
Note that this option doesn't affect the built-in formats, only custom
formats. This is exactly the same behavior as users already have from
git log and is what most users will be used to.

When we cannot figure out how wide the terminal is, we use a
fallback value of 80 ourselves (which cannot be avoided), but when
we run the pager, we export it in COLUMNS, which forces the pager
to use the hardcoded value, even when the pager is perfectly
capable to figure it out itself. Stop exporting COLUMNS when we
fall back on the hardcoded default value for our own use.
* js/stop-exporting-bogus-columns:
pager: avoid setting COLUMNS when we're guessing its value
