The manual pages of cherry-pick and revert had examples with two revisions
on the same line in the examples section, that looked like this:
git cherry-pick master~4 master~2::
Unfortunately, this is taken as a mark-up to make the part between two
tildes, "4 master", subscript. Use {tilde} to make it explicit that we
do want ~ characters in these places (backslash does not help).

* maint-1.7.2:
add: introduce add.ignoreerrors synonym for add.ignore-errors
bash: Match lightweight tags in prompt
git-commit.txt: (synopsis): move -i and -o before "--"
The "[add] ignore-errors" tweakable introduced by v1.5.6-rc0~30^2 (Add
a config option to ignore errors for git-add, 2008-05-12) does not
follow the usual convention for naming values in the git configuration
file.
What convention? Glad you asked.
The section name indicates the affected subsystem.
The subsection name, if any, indicates which of
an unbound set of things to set the value for.
The variable name describes the effect of tweaking
this knob.
The section and variable names can be broken into
words using bumpyCaps in documentation as a hint to
the reader. These word breaks are not significant
at the level of code, since the section and variable
names are not case sensitive.
The name "add.ignore-errors" includes a dash, meaning a naive
configuration file like
[add]
ignoreErrors
does not have any effect. Avoid such confusion by renaming to the
more consistent add.ignoreErrors, but keep the old version for
backwards compatibility.

The bash prompt would display a commit's object name when having checked
out a lightweight tag. Provide `--tags` to `git describe` in the completion
script, so it will display lightweight tag names, as it already does for
annotated tags.

When using stricter linkers, such as GNU gold or Darwin ld, transitive

If an email address in the "to:" list is in the style
"First Last <email@domain.tld>", ie: not just a bare
address like "email@domain.tld", and the same named
entry style exists in the "cc:" list, the current
logic will not remove the entry from the "cc:" list.
Add logic to better deduplicate the "cc:" list by also
matching the email address with angle brackets.

In case HEAD does not point to a valid commit yet, merge is
implemented as a hard reset. This will cause untracked files to be
overwritten.
Instead, assume the empty tree for HEAD and do a regular merge. An
untracked file will cause the merge to abort and do nothing. If no
conflicting files are present, the merge will have the same effect
as a hard reset.

If any strategy options are passed to -X, the strategy will always be
set to 'recursive'. According to the documentation, it should default to
'recursive' if it is not set, but it should be possible to set it to
other values.

The previous text was not exactly accurate; it is OK to
change space and minus lines, but only in certain ways.
This patch takes a whole new approach, which is to describe
the sorts of conceptual operations you might want to
perform. It also includes a healthy dose of warnings about
how things can go wrong.
Since the size of the text is getting quite long, it also
splits this out into an "editing patches" section. This
makes more sense with the current structure, anyway, which
already splits out the interactive mode description.

Git's diff machinery has supported a -s (silence diff output) option
as far back as v0.99~900 (Silent flag for show-diff, 2005-04-13), but
the option is only advertised in an odd corner of the git diff-tree
manual.
The main use is to retrieve basic metadata about a commit:
git show -s rev
Explain this in the 'git log' manual and provide an example in the
'git show' examples section. This is kind of a cop-out, since it
would be more useful to explain it in the 'git show' manual proper,
which says:
The command takes options applicable to the git
diff-tree command to control how the changes the
commit introduces are shown.
This manual page describes only the most frequently
used options.
Fixing that is a larger task for another day.

format-spec is included in Emacs 23 and is a useful function.
Older emacsen can get it from Gnus. In all emacsen, we need
to 'require it before use to avoid warnings:
