user-manual: fix inconsistent use of pull and merge

Asciidoc appears to interpret a backslash at the end of a line as
escaping the end-of-line character, which screws up the display of
history diagrams like
o--o--o
\
o--...
The obvious fix (replacing "\" by "\\") doesn't work. The only
workaround I've found is to include all such diagrams in a LiteralBlock.
Asciidoc claims that should be equivalent to a literal paragraph, so I
don't understand why the difference--perhaps it's an asciidoc bug.

I used "git pull ." instead of "git merge" here without any explanation.
Stick instead to "git merge" for now (the equivalent pull syntax is
still covered in a later chapter).

The script sort_glossary.pl turns each use of "term" into a link to the
definition of "term". To avoid mangling links like
gitlink:git-term[1]
it doesn't replace any occurence of "term" preceded by "link:git-".
This fails for gitlink:git-symbolic-ref[1] when substituting for "ref".
So instead just refuse to replace anything preceded by a "-".
That could result in missing some opportunities, but that's a less
annoying error.
Actually I find the automatic substitution a little distracting; some
day maybe we should just run it once and commit the result, so it can
be hand-tuned.

This failure to catch the failure of write_ref_sha1 was noticed
by Bill Lear. The ref will not update if the log file could not
be appended to (due to file permissions problems). Such a failure
should be flagged as a failure to update the ref, so that the client
knows the push did not succeed.

The test was recently broken to expect sed to leave the
incomplete line at the end without newline.
POSIX says that output of the pattern space is to be followed by
a newline, while GNU adds the newline back only when it was
stripped when input. GNU behaviour is arguably more intuitive
and nicer, but we should not depend on it.

Johannes Sixt noticed during one of his own imports that fast-import
did not fail if a non-existant commit is referenced by SHA-1 value
as an argument to the 'merge' command. This allowed the user to
unknowingly create commits that would fail in fsck, as the commit
contents would not be completely reachable.
A side effect of this bug was that a frontend process could mark
any SHA-1 object (blob, tree, tag) as a parent of a merge commit.
This should also fail in fsck, as the commit is not a valid commit.
We now use the same rule as the 'from' command. If a commit is
referenced in the 'merge' command by hex formatted SHA-1 then the
SHA-1 must be a commit or a tag that can be peeled back to a commit,
the commit must already exist, and must be readable by the core Git
infrastructure code. This requirement means that the commit must
have existed prior to fast-import starting, or the commit must have
been flushed out by a prior 'checkpoint' command.

Johannes Sixt noticed that a 'reset' command applied to a branch that
is already active in the branch LRU cache can cause fast-import to
relink the same branch into the LRU cache twice. This will cause
the LRU cache to contain a cycle, making unload_one_branch run in an
infinite loop as it tries to select the oldest branch for eviction.
I have trivially fixed the problem by adding an active bit to
each branch object; this bit indicates if the branch is already
in the LRU and allows us to avoid trying to add it a second time.
Converting the pack_id field into a bitfield makes this change take
up no additional memory.
