Dan McGee 5162e69732 Documentation: rename gitlink macro to linkgit
Between AsciiDoc 8.2.2 and 8.2.3, the following change was made to the stock
Asciidoc configuration:

 # Inline macros.
 # Backslash prefix required for escape processing.
 # (?s) re flag for line spanning.
-(?su)[\\]?(?P<name>\w(\w|-)*?):(?P<target>\S*?)(\[(?P<attrlist>.*?)\])=

 (?su)[\\]?\[\[\[(?P<attrlist>[\w][\w-]*?)\]\]\]=anchor3
 # Anchor: [[id,xreflabel]]

This default regex now matches explicit values, and unfortunately in this
case gitlink was being matched by just 'link', causing the wrong inline
macro template to be applied. By renaming the macro, we can avoid being
matched by the wrong regex.

=================
NAME
----
git-merge-base - Find as good common ancestors as possible for a merge
SYNOPSIS
--------
'git-merge-base' [--all] <commit> <commit>
DESCRIPTION
-----------
"git-merge-base" finds as good a common ancestor as possible between
the two commits. That is, given two commits A and B 'git-merge-base A
B' will output a commit which is reachable from both A and B through
the parent relationship.
Given a selection of equally good common ancestors it should not be
relied on to decide in any particular way.
The "git-merge-base" algorithm is still in flux - use the source...
OPTIONS
-------
--all::
Output all common ancestors for the two commits instead of
just one.
