Add a DISCUSSION section to the "git format-patch" manual to encourage
people to send patches in a form that can be applied by "git am"
automatically. There are two such forms:
1. The default form in which most metadata goes in the mail header
and the message body starts with the patch description;
2. The snipsnip form in which a message starts with pertinent
discussion and ends with a patch after a "scissors" mark.
The example requires QP encoding in the "Subject:" header intended for
the mailer to give the reader a chance to reflect on that, rather than
being startled by it later. By contrast, in-body "From:" and
"Subject:" lines should be human-readable and not QP encoded.

I found that some doubled words had snuck back into projects from which
I'd already removed them, so now there's a "syntax-check" makefile rule in
gnulib to help prevent recurrence.
Running the command below spotted a few in git, too:
git ls-files | xargs perl -0777 -n \
-e 'while (/\b(then?|[iao]n|i[fst]|but|f?or|at|and|[dt])\s+\1\b/gims)' \
-e '{$n=($` =~ tr/\n/\n/ + 1); ($v=$&)=~s/\n/\\n/g;' \
-e 'print "$ARGV:$n:$v\n"}'

Currently, the --dirstat analysis ignores when lines within a file are
rearranged, because the "damage" calculated by show_dirstat() is 0.
However, if the object name has changed, we already know that there is
some damage, and it is unintuitive to claim there is _no_ damage.
Teach show_dirstat() to assign a minimum amount of damage (== 1) to
entries for which the analysis otherwise yields zero damage, to still
represent that these files are changed, instead of saying that there
is no change.
Also, skip --dirstat analysis when the object names are the same (e.g. for
a pure file rename).

Similar to the 'remote.<name>.pushurl' config key for git remotes,
'pushurl' is designed to be used in cases where 'url' points to an SVN
repository via a read-only transport, to provide an alternate
read/write transport. It is assumed that both keys point to the same
repository.
The 'pushurl' key is distinct from the 'commiturl' key in that
'commiturl' is a full svn path while 'pushurl' (like 'url') is a base
path. 'commiturl' takes precendece over 'pushurl' in cases where
either might be used.
The 'pushurl' is used by git-svn's dcommit and branch commands.

Support ":/" magic string that can be prefixed to a pathspec element to
say "this names the path from the top-level of the working tree", when
you are in the subdirectory.
For example, you should be able to say:
$ edit Makefile ;# top-level
$ cd Documentation
$ edit git.txt ;# in the subdirectory
and then do one of three things, still inside the subdirectory:
$ git add -u . ;# add only Documentation/git.txt
$ git add -u :/ ;# add everything, including paths outside Documentation
$ git add -u ;# whatever the default setting is.
To truly support magic pathspec, the API needs to be restructured so that
get_pathspec() and init_pathspec() are unified into one call. Currently,
the former just prefixes the user supplied pathspec with the current
subdirectory path, and the latter takes the output from the former and
pre-parses them into a bit richer structure for easier handling. They
should become a single API function that takes the current subdirectory
path and the remainder of argv[] (after parsing --options and revision
arguments from the command line) and returns an array of parsed pathspec
elements, and "magic" should become attributes of struct pathspec_item.
This patch implements only "top" magic because it can be hacked into the
system without such a refactoring.
The syntax for magic pathspec prefix is designed to be extensible yet
simple to type to invoke a simple magic like "from the top". The parser
for the magic prefix is hooked into get_pathspec() function in this patch,
and it needs to be moved when we refactor the API.
But we have to start from somewhere.

Apart from the list of "valid values", 'diff.tool' can take any value,
provided there is a corresponding 'difftool.<tool>.cmd' option. Also,
describe this option just before the 'difftool.*' options.

Although the gitattributes page contains comprehensive information
about these configuration options, they should be included in the
config documentation for completeness.
It may be better to rename the "driver" in "diff.<driver>.*" to
something like "content type" or "file type", but for now, let's keep
it consistent across this part of the documentation and the original
description in the gitattributes documentation.

By default git submodule update runs a simple checkout on submodules that

In order to reset a whole git submodule tree, a user has to run first 'git
submodule foreach --recursive git checkout -f' and then run 'git submodule
update'.
This patch adds a --force option for the update command (only used for
submodules without --rebase or --merge options). It passes the --force
option to git checkout which will throw away the local changes.
