Clarify that the GIT_NOTES_REWRITE_REFS environment variable
overrides both ‘[notes "rewrite"] <command>’ and ‘[notes] rewriteRef’.
Add explanations of GIT_NOTES_REWRITE_MODE and GIT_NOTES_REWRITE_REFS
to the ENVIRONMENT section.

The main description of display refs for notes should be in
git-log.1, where there is a chance to give a leisurely description
of all the ways they can be set, what they are used for, and so
on. The description in git-notes.1 is only meant to be a quick
reminder of how notes are used.
So simplify it.
Also add an entry for GIT_NOTES_DISPLAY_REF to the environment
section.

Copy the descriptions of configuration variables from git-config.1.
Once the descriptions have been ironed out, it would be nice to
refactor them to share text, but for now it is simplest to experiment
with separate copies.

stripspace/text-based formatting kicks in when specifying the notes
content with -m or -F, or when an editor is used to edit the notes.
To binary-safely create notes from files, the following construct is
required:
git notes add -C $(git hash-object -w <file>) <object>
Explain this trick (thanks, Johan!) in the manual. Add an ordinary
example, too, to keep this esoteric one company.

Separate the specification of the notes format exposed in
git-config.1 from the description of the option; or in other
words, move the explanation for what to expect to find at
refs/notes/commits from git-config.1 to git-notes.1.

When passed no revision arguments, ‘git shortlog’ reads a log from
stdin if and only if stdin is not a tty. So scripts that need to
function identically when standard input is a terminal (as when run
interactively) and not (as when run through a cron job) should either
supply a log themselves or specify the desired revisions explicitly.

previously the only ways to alias a --pretty format within git were
either to set the format as your default format (via the format.pretty
configuration variable), or by using a regular git alias. This left the
definition of more complicated formats to the realm of "builtin or
nothing", with user-defined formats usually being reserved for quick
one-offs.
Here we allow user-defined formats to enjoy more or less the same
benefits of builtins. By defining pretty.myalias, "myalias" can be
used in place of whatever would normally come after --pretty=. This
can be a format:, tformat:, raw (ie, defaulting to tformat), or the name
of another builtin or user-defined pretty format.
