There are several places in the documentation that
the term shallow clone is used. Defining the term
enables its use elsewhere with a known definition.

In the section on "How to check out a different version of a
project" the "new" branch is used as a temporary branch. A detached
HEAD was not used since it was a new feature introduced just a
couple weeks prior.
The section could be changed to use and explain a detached HEAD,
except that would increase the learning curve early in the manual.
Detached HEADs are discussed a couple sections later under
"Examining an old version without creating a new branch".
Let's declare that it is a bad idea to rewrite the example that
uses a temporary branch to do the sightseeing on a detached HEAD.

"format-patch" has learned a new option to zero-out the commit
object name on the mbox "From " line.
* bc/format-patch-null-from-line:
format-patch: check that header line has expected format
format-patch: add an option to suppress commit hash
sha1_file.c: introduce a null_oid constant
Add new config to avoid typing "--recurse-submodules" on each push.
* mc/push-recurse-submodules-config:
push: follow the "last one wins" convention for --recurse-submodules
push: test that --recurse-submodules on command line overrides config
push: add recurseSubmodules config option
"git push" takes "--delete" but does not take a short form "-d",
unlike "git branch" which does take both. Bring consistency
between them.

Teach the command to show progress output when it takes long time to
produce the first line of output; this option cannot be used with
"--incremental" or "--porcelain" options.
git-annotate inherits the option as well.

Oftentimes, patches created by git format-patch will be stored in
version control or compared with diff. In these cases, two otherwise
identical patches can have different commit hashes, leading to diff
noise. Teach git format-patch a --zero-commit option that instead
produces an all-zero hash to avoid this diff noise.

"git p4" used to import Perforce CLs that touch only paths outside
the client spec as empty commits. It has been corrected to ignore
them instead, with a new configuration git-p4.keepEmptyCommits as a
backward compatibility knob.

A changelist that contains only excluded files due to a client spec was
imported as an empty commit. Fix that issue by ignoring these commits.

There was no way to defeat a configured rebase.autostash variable
from the command line, as "git rebase --no-autostash" was missing.

The git-submodule(1) is inconsistent. In the synopsis, it says:
git submodule [--quiet] sync [--recursive] [--] [<path>...]
The description of the sync does not mention --recursive, and the
description of --recursive says that it is only available for foreach,
update and status.
The option was introduced (82f49f294c, Teach --recursive to submodule
sync, 2012-10-26) a while ago, so let's document it, too.
