Junio C Hamano 215a7ad1ef Big tool rename.
As promised, this is the "big tool rename" patch.  The primary differences
since 0.99.6 are:

  (1) git-*-script are no more.  The commands installed do not
      have any such suffix so users do not have to remember if
      something is implemented as a shell script or not.

  (2) Many command names with 'cache' in them are renamed with
      'index' if that is what they mean.

There are backward compatibility symblic links so that you and
Porcelains can keep using the old names, but the backward
compatibility support  is expected to be removed in the near
future.

git-sh-setup(1)
===============
NAME
----
git-sh-setup - Common git shell script setup code.
SYNOPSIS
--------
'git-sh-setup'
DESCRIPTION
-----------
Sets up the normal git environment variables and a few helper functions
(currently just "die()"), and returns ok if it all looks like a git archive.
So use it something like
. git-sh-setup || die "Not a git archive"
to make the rest of the git scripts more careful and readable.
