Currently, the documentation suggests that 'git merge-base -a' and 'git
show-branch --merge-base' are equivalent (in fact it claims that the
former cannot handle more than two revs).
Alas, the handling of more than two revs is very different. Document
this by tests and correct the documentation to reflect this.

The current documentation states that servers typically listen on port
465 and calls this "ssmtp". While it's true that many mail servers use
port 465 for SSL smtp, this is non-standard, and hails from the days
before smtp and submission TLS support, that arrived in RFC2487 and
RFC3207. Port 465 is actually assigned by IANA for unrelated purposes,
and is mostly still used by mail servers today only to support Outlook
Express.
In any case, this patch helps the documentation better reflect both
standards and reality, while still helpfully mentioning ports numbers
that a user may wish to specify.

When using git fast-export and git fast-import to rewrite the history
of a repository with large binary files, almost all of the time is
spent dealing with blobs. This is extremely inefficient if all we want
to do is rewrite the commits and tree structure. --no-data skips the
output of blobs and writes SHA-1s instead of marks, which provides a
massive speedup.

asciidoc 8.4.1 changed the semantics of inline backtick quoting so
that they disable parsing of inline constructs, i.e.,
Input: `{plus}`
Pre 8.4.1: +
Post 8.4.1: {plus}
Fix this by defining the asciidoc attribute 'no-inline-literal'
(which, per the 8.4.1 changelog, is the toggle to return to the old
behaviour) when under ASCIIDOC8.

This reverts the --minimize-url behavior change that
appeared recently in commit 0b2af457a4
("Fix branch detection when repository root is inaccessible").
However, we now allow the option to be turned off by allowing
"--no-minimize-url" so people with limited-access setups can
still take advantage of the fix in
0b2af457a4.
Also document the behavior and default settings of minimize-url
in the manpage for the first time.
This introduces a temporary UI regression to allow t9141 to pass
that will be reverted (fixed) in the next commit.

When you have grafts that pretend that a given commit has different
parents than the ones recorded in the commit object, it is dangerous
to let 'git repack' remove those hidden parents, as you can easily
remove the graft and end up with a broken repository.
So let's play it safe and keep those parent objects and everything
that is reachable by them, in addition to the grafted parents.
As this behavior can only be triggered by git pack-objects, and as that
command handles duplicate parents gracefully, we do not bother to cull
duplicated parents that may result by using both true and grafted
parents.

Cleanup the documentation to explicitly state that --exclude-directory
is only meaningful when used with -u. Also make the documentation more
consistent with the usage message printed with read-tree --help-all.
The -m, --prefix, --reset options are performing similar actions
(setting some flags, read_cache_unmerged(), checking for illegal option
combinations). Instead of performing these actions when the options are
parsed, we delay performing them until after parse-opts has finished.
The bit fields in struct unpack_trees_options have been promoted to full
unsigned ints. This is necessary to avoid "foo ? 1 : 0" constructs to
set these fields.

When providing a list of paths to limit what is exported, the object that
a tag points to can be filtered out entirely. This new switch allows
the user to specify what should happen to the tag in such a case. The
default action, 'abort' will exit with an error message. With 'drop', the
tag will simply be omitted from the output. With 'rewrite', if the object
tagged was a commit, the tag will be modified to tag an alternate commit.
The alternate commit is determined by treating the original commit as the
"parent" of the tag and then using the parent rewriting algorithm of the
revision traversal machinery (related to the "--parents" option of "git
rev-list")

'git svn dcommit' takes an optional revision argument, but the meaning
of it was rather scary. It completely ignored the current state of
the HEAD, only looking at the revisions between SVN and $rev. If HEAD
was attached to $branch, the branch lost all commits $rev..$branch in
the process.
Considering that 'git svn dcommit HEAD^' has the intuitive meaning
"dcommit all changes on my branch except the last one", we change the
meaning of the revision argument. git-svn temporarily checks out $rev
for its work, meaning that
* if a branch is specified, that branch (_not_ the HEAD) is rebased as
part of the dcommit,
* if some other revision is specified, as in the example, all work
happens on a detached HEAD and no branch is affected.
