The documentation for GIT_ALLOW_PROTOCOL has a sentence that adds no
value, since it repeats the meaning from the previous sentence (twice!).
The word "whitelist" has cultural implications that are not inclusive,
which brought attention to this sentence.

The documentation and error messages for git-cvsserver include some
references to a "whitelist" that is not otherwise included in the
documentation. When different parts of the documentation do not use
common language, this can lead to confusion as to how things are meant
to operate.
Further, the word "whitelist" has cultural implications that make its
use non-inclusive. Thankfully, we can remove it while increasing
clarity.
Update Documentation/git-cvsserver.txt in a similar way to the previous
change to Documentation/git-daemon.txt. The optional '<directory>...'
list can specify a list of allowed directories. We refer to that list
directly inside of the documentation for the GIT_CVSSERVER_ROOT
environment variable.
While modifying this documentation, update the environment variables to
use a list format. We use the modern way of tabbing the description of
each variable in this section. We do _not_ update the description of
'<directory>...' to use tabs this way since the rest of the items in the
OPTIONS list do not use this modern formatting.
A single error message in the actual git-cvsserver.perl code refers to
the whitelist during argument parsing. Instead, refer to the directory
list that has been clarified in the documentation.

The undecorated arguments to the 'git-daemon' command provide a list of
directories. When at least one directory is specified, then 'git-daemon'
only serves requests that are within that directory list. The boolean
'--strict-paths' option makes the list more explicit in that
subdirectories are no longer included.
The existing documentation and error messages around this directory list
refer to it and its behavior as a "whitelist". The word "whitelist" has
cultural implications that are not inclusive. Thankfully, it is not
difficult to reword and avoid its use. In the process, we can define the
purpose of this directory list directly.
In Documentation/git-daemon.txt, rewrite the OPTIONS section around the
'<directory>' option. Add additional clarity to the other options that
refer to these directories.
Some error messages can also be improved in daemon.c. The
'--strict-paths' option requires '<directory>' arguments, so refer to
that section of the documentation directly. A logerror() call points out
that a requested directory is not in the specified directory list. We
can use "list" here without any loss of information.

The sparse checkout feature can be used in "cone mode" or "non-cone
mode". In this one instance in the documentation, we refer to the latter
as "non cone mode" with whitespace rather than a hyphen. Align this with
the rest of our documentation.
A few words later in the same paragraph, there's mention of "a more
flexible patterns". Drop that leading "a" to fix the grammar.

The first section of 'Documentation/technical/index-format.txt'
mentions that "Git currently supports cache tree and resolve undo
extensions", but then goes on, and in the "Extensions" section
describes not only these two, but six other extensions [1].
Remove this sentence, as it's misleading about the status of all those
other extensions.
Alternatively we could keep that sentence and update the list of
extensions, but that might well lead to a recurring issue, because
apparently this list is never updated when a new index extension is
added.
[1] Split index, untracked cache, FS monitor cache, end of index
entry, index entry offset table and sparse directory entries.

Git config's tab completion does not yet know about the "include"
and "includeIf" sections, nor the related "path" variable.
Add a description for these two sections in
'Documentation/config/includeif.txt', which points to git-config's
documentation, specifically the "Includes" and "Conditional Includes"
subsections.
As a side effect, tab completion can successfully complete the
'include', 'includeIf', and 'include.add' expressions.
This effect is tested by two new ad-hoc tests.
Variable completion only works for "include" for now.
Credit for the ideas behind this patch goes to

While inspecting the 'git rebase' documentation, I noticed that it is
inconsistent with how it uses back-ticks (or other punctuation) for
identifying Git commands, command-line arguments, or values for those
arguments.
Sometimes, an argument (like '--interactive') would appear without any
punctuation, causing the argument to not have any special formatting.
Other times, arguments or 'git rebase' itself would have single-quotes
giving a bold look (in the HTML documentation at least).
By consistently using back-ticks, these types of strings appear in a
monospace font with special highlighting to appear more clearly as text
that exists in a command-line invocation of a Git command.
This rather-large diff is the result of scanning git-rebase.txt and
adding back-ticks as appropriate. Some are adding back-ticks where there
was no punctuation. Others are replacing single quotes.
There are also a few minor cleanups in the process, including those
found by reviewers.

In asciidoc's HTML output of the "gitrevisions" and "git-rev-parse"
documentation, the header:
The ... (three-dot) Symmetric Difference Notation
is rendered using "&8230;", a horizontal ellipsis. This is visually
ugly, but also hard to search for or cut-and-paste. We really mean three
ascii dots (0x2e) here, so let's make sure it renders as such.
The simplest way to do that is just escaping the leading dot, as the
instances in the rest of the section do. Arguably this should all be
converted to use backticks, which would let us drop the quoting here and
elsewhere (e.g., {carat}). But that does change the rendering slightly.
So let's fix the bug first, and we can decide on migrating the whole
section separately.
Note that this produces an empty doc-diff of the manpages. Curiously,
asciidoc produces the same ellipsis entity in the XML file, but docbook
then converts it back into three literal dots for the roff output! So
the roff manpages have been correct all along (which may be a reason
nobody noticed this until now).

"sudo git foo" used to consider a repository owned by the original
user a safe one to access; it now also considers a repository owned
by root a safe one, too (after all, if an attacker can craft a
malicious repository owned by root, the box is 0wned already).
* cb/path-owner-check-with-sudo-plus:
git-compat-util: allow root to access both SUDO_UID and root owned
|
|
Previous changes introduced a regression which will prevent root for
accessing repositories owned by thyself if using sudo because SUDO_UID
takes precedence.
Loosen that restriction by allowing root to access repositories owned
by both uid by default and without having to add a safe.directory
exception.
A previous workaround that was documented in the tests is no longer
needed so it has been removed together with its specially crafted
prerequisite.

Some config variables are combinations of multiple words, and we
typically write them in camelCase forms in manpage and translatable
strings. It's not easy to find mismatches for these camelCase config
variables during code reviews, but occasionally they are identified
during localization translations.
To check for mismatched config variables, I introduced a new feature
in the helper program for localization[^1]. The following mismatched
config variables have been identified by running the helper program,
such as "git-po-helper check-pot".
Lowercase in manpage should use camelCase:
* Documentation/config/http.txt: http.pinnedpubkey
Lowercase in translable strings should use camelCase:
* builtin/fast-import.c: pack.indexversion
* builtin/gc.c: gc.logexpiry
* builtin/index-pack.c: pack.indexversion
* builtin/pack-objects.c: pack.indexversion
* builtin/repack.c: pack.writebitmaps
* commit.c: i18n.commitencoding
* gpg-interface.c: user.signingkey
* http.c: http.postbuffer
* submodule-config.c: submodule.fetchjobs
Mismatched camelCases, choose the former:
* Documentation/config/transfer.txt: transfer.credentialsInUrl
remote.c: transfer.credentialsInURL

The asciidoc generated html for `Documentation/technical/bitmap-
