Big tool rename. As promised, this is the "big tool rename" patch. The primary differences since 0.99.6 are: (1) git-*-script are no more. The commands installed do not have any such suffix so users do not have to remember if something is implemented as a shell script or not. (2) Many command names with 'cache' in them are renamed with 'index' if that is what they mean. There are backward compatibility symblic links so that you and Porcelains can keep using the old names, but the backward compatibility support is expected to be removed in the near future.

git-checkout(1)
===============
Add placeholders for missing documents. The text does not say anything interesting, but at least the author list should reflect something close to reality. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>
