If you are a long time git user/developer, you forget that to a new git
user, these words have not the same meaning as to you.

Tommi Virtanen expressed a wish on #git to be able to use short and elegant
git URLs by making git-daemon 'root' in a given directory. This patch
implements this, causing git-daemon to interpret all paths relative to
the given base path if any is given.

I added things to ls-remote so that Cogito can auto-follow tags
easily and correctly a while ago, but git-fetch did not use the
facility. Recently added git-describe command relies on
repository keeping up-to-date set of tags, which made it much
more attractive to automatically follow tags, so we do that as
well.

When --show-prefix is useful, sometimes it is easier to cd up to
the toplevel of the tree. This is equivalent to:
git rev-parse --show-prefix | sed -e 's|[^/][^/]*|..|g'
but we do not have to invoke sed for that.

Earlier, git-clone stored upstream's master in the branch named 'origin',
possibly overwriting an existing such branch.
Now you can change it by calling git-clone with '-o <other_name>'.

When I show transcripts to explain how something works, I often
find myself hand-editing the diff-raw output to shorten various
object names in the output.
This adds --abbrev option to the diff family, which shortens
diff-raw output and diff-tree commit id headers.

We still advertise "git resolve" as a standalone command, but never
"git octopus", so nobody should be using it and it is safe to
retire it. The functionality is still available as a strategy
backend.

Split out the functions that deal with the socketpair after
finishing git protocol handshake to receive the packed data into
a separate file, and use it in fetch-pack to keep/explode the
received pack data. We earlier had something like that on
clone-pack side once, but the list discussion resulted in the
decision that it makes sense to always keep the pack for
clone-pack, so unpacking option is not enabled on the clone-pack
side, but we later still could do so easily if we wanted to with
this change.

Morten Welinder says examples of resetting is really about
recovering from botched commit/pulls. I agree that pointers
from commands that cause a reset to be needed in the first place
would be very helpful.
Also reset examples did not mention "pull/merge" cases.

clone-pack had some logic to accept subset of remote refs from
the command line and clone from there. However, it was never
used in practice and its problems were not found out so far.
This commit changes the command to output the object names of
refs to the standard output instead of making a clone of the
remote repository when explicit <head> parameters are given; the
output format is the same as fetch-pack.
The traditional behaviour of cloning the whole repository by
giving no explicit <head> parameters stays the same.

Recommend git over ssh direct to master.kernel.org, instead of
going over rsync to public machines, since this is meant to be a
procedure for kernel subsystem maintainers.

This allows git-am to accept single-message files as well as mboxes.
Unlike the previous version, this one doesn't need to be explicitly told
which one it is; rather, it looks to see if the first line is a From
line and uses it to select mbox mode or not.
I moved the logic to do all this into git-mailsplit, which got a new
user interface as result, although the old interface is still available
for backwards compatibility.
[jc: applied with two obvious fixes.]

Talk about the following as well:
* git fetch --tags
* Use of "git push" as a one-man distributed development vehicle.
* Show example of remotes file for pulling and pushing.
* Annotate git-shell setup.
* Using Carl's update hook in a CVS-style shared repository.

The initial section of tutorial was too heavy on internal
workings for the first-time readers, so rewrite the introductory
section of git(7) to start with "not learning core git commands"
section and refer them to README to grasp the basic concepts,
then Everyday to give overview with task/role oriented examples
for minimum set of commands, and finally the tutorial.
Also add to existing note in the tutorial that many too
technical descriptions can be skipped by a casual reader.
I initially started to review the tutorial, with the objective
of ripping out the detailed technical information altogether,
but I found that the level of details in the initial couple of
sections that talk about refs and the object database in a
hands-on fashion was about rigth, and left all of them there. I
feel that reading about fsck-index and repack is too abstract
without being aware of these directories and files.

Explicit <head> arguments to git-prune replaces, instead of
extends, the list of heads used for reachability analysis by
fsck-objects. By giving a subset of heads by mistake, objects
reachable only from other heads can be removed, resulting in a
corrupted repository.
This commit stops replacing the list of heads, and makes the
command line arguments to add to them instead for safety.

Not replacing but always including our own refs may be more
desirable (and unarguably much safer), but at the same time I
have a suspicion that that might be forbidding a useful usage I
haven't thought of, so...
