- Fix some malformed synopis of options
- Use _<placeholder>_ instead of <placeholder> in the description
- Use `backticks` for keywords and more complex option
descriptions. The new rendering engine will apply synopsis rules to
these spans.
- Add the '%' sign to the characters of keywords.

"git whatchanged" that is longer to type than "git log --raw"
which is its modern rough equivalent has outlived its usefulness
more than 10 years ago. Plan to deprecate and remove it.
* jc/you-still-use-whatchanged:
whatschanged: list it in BreakingChanges document
whatchanged: remove when built with WITH_BREAKING_CHANGES
whatchanged: require --i-still-use-this
tests: prepare for a world without whatchanged
doc: prepare for a world without whatchanged
you-still-use-that??: help deprecating commands for removal
As we made "git whatchanged" require "--i-still-use-this" and asked
the users to report if they still want to use it, the logical next
step is to allow us build Git without "whatchanged" to prepare for
its eventual removal.
If we were to follow the pattern established in 8ccc75c2 (remote:
announce removal of "branches/" and "remotes/", 2025-01-22), we can
do this together with the documentation update to officially list
that the command will be removed in the BreakingChanges document,
but let's just keep the changes separate just in case we want to
proceed a bit slower.

"git rev-list" learns machine-parsable output format that delimits
each field with NUL.
* jt/rev-list-z:
rev-list: support NUL-delimited --missing option
rev-list: support NUL-delimited --boundary option
rev-list: support delimiting objects with NUL bytes
rev-list: refactor early option parsing
rev-list: inline `show_object_with_name()` in `show_object()`
The `--missing={print,print-info}` option for git-rev-list(1) prints
missing objects found while performing the object walk in the form:
$ git rev-list --missing=print-info <rev>
?<oid> [SP <token>=<value>]... LF
Add support for printing missing objects in a NUL-delimited format when
the `-z` option is enabled.
$ git rev-list -z --missing=print-info <rev>
<oid> NUL missing=yes NUL [<token>=<value> NUL]...
In this mode, values containing special characters or spaces are printed
as-is without being escaped or quoted. Instead of prefixing the missing
OID with '?', a separate `missing=yes` token/value pair is appended.

The `--boundary` option for git-rev-list(1) prints boundary objects
found while performing the object walk in the form:
$ git rev-list --boundary <rev>
-<oid> LF
Add support for printing boundary objects in a NUL-delimited format when
the `-z` option is enabled.
$ git rev-list -z --boundary <rev>
<oid> NUL boundary=yes NUL
In this mode, instead of prefixing the boundary OID with '-', a separate
`boundary=yes` token/value pair is appended.

When walking objects, git-rev-list(1) prints each object entry on a
separate line. Some options, such as `--objects`, may print additional
information about tree and blob object on the same line in the form:
$ git rev-list --objects <rev>
<tree/blob oid> SP [<path>] LF
Note that in this form the SP is appended regardless of whether the tree
or blob object has path information available. Paths containing a
newline are also truncated at the newline.
Introduce the `-z` option for git-rev-list(1) which reformats the output
to use NUL-delimiters between objects and associated info in the
following form:
$ git rev-list -z --objects <rev>
<oid> NUL [path=<path> NUL]
In this form, the start of each record is signaled by an OID entry that
is all hexidecimal and does not contain any '='. Additional path info
from `--objects` is appended to the record as a token/value pair
`path=<path>` as-is without any truncation.
For now, the `--objects` flag is the only options that can be used in
combination with `-z`. In a subsequent commit, NUL-delimited support for
other options is added. Other options that do not make sense when used
in combination with `-z` are rejected.

The documentation is using the historical mode for titles, which is a
setext-style (i.e., two-line) section title.
The issue with this mode is that starting block delimiters (e.g.,
`----`) can be confused with a section title when they are exactly the
same length as the preceding line. In the original documentation, this
is taken care of for English by the writer, but it is not the case for
translations where these delimiters are hidden. A translator can
generate a line that is exactly the same length as the following block
delimiter, which leads to this line being considered as a title.
To safeguard against this issue, add a blank line before and after
block delimiters where block is at root level, else add a "+" line
before block delimiters to link it to the preceding paragraph.

"git rev-list --missing=" learned to accept "print-info" that gives
known details expected of the missing objects, like path and type.
* jt/rev-list-missing-print-info:
rev-list: extend print-info to print missing object type
rev-list: add print-info action to print missing object path
We presently use the ".txt" extension for our AsciiDoc files. While not
wrong, most editors do not associate this extension with AsciiDoc,
meaning that contributors don't get automatic editor functionality that
could be useful, such as syntax highlighting and prose linting.
It is much more common to use the ".adoc" extension for AsciiDoc files,
since this helps editors automatically detect files and also allows
various forges to provide rich (HTML-like) rendering. Let's do that
here, renaming all of the files and updating the includes where
relevant. Adjust the various build scripts and makefiles to use the new
extension as well.
Note that this should not result in any user-visible changes to the
documentation.
