Both of these pages document very similar `--empty` options, but with
different styles. The exact behavior of these `--empty` options differs
somewhat, but consistent styling in the docs is still beneficial. This
commit aims to make them more consistent.
Break the possible values for `--empty` into separate sections for
readability. Alphabetical order is chosen for consistency.
In a future commit, we'll be documenting a new `--empty` option for
git-cherry-pick(1), making the consistency even more relevant.

"git am --help" now tells readers what actions are available in
"git am --whitespace=<action>", in addition to saying that the
option is passed through to the underlying "git apply".
* jc/am-whitespace-doc:
doc: add shortcut to "am --whitespace=<action>"
|

We refer readers of "git am --help" to "git apply --help" for many
options that are passed through, and most of them are simple
booleans, but --whitespace takes from a set of actions whose names
may slip users' minds. Give a list of them in "git am --help" to
reduce one level of redirection only to find out what they are.
In the helper function to parse the available options, there was a
helpful comment reminding the developer to update list of <action>s
in the completion script. Mention the two documentation pages there
as well.

`git am` passes the value given to its `--whitespace` option through
to the underlying `git apply`, and the value is called <action> over
there. Fix the documentation for the command that calls the value
<option> to say <action> instead.
Note that the option help given by `git am -h` already calls the
value <action>, so there is no need to make a matching change there.

There were two reasons we didn't do this. As "git am" is designed
to grok e-mailed patches, not necessarily taken out of a Git
repostiory or even if it came from a Git repository not necessarily
produced with format-patch, we didn't want to single it out as the
"blessed" input producer to the command. Also, in the original
workflow that "git am" was invented for, the user of "am" was
expected to be a different person than the users of "format-patch".
But this is a very safe change to make in 2023. Thanks to the
effort by many contributors, Git ended up becoming a bit more
popular than we initially thought it would be, and "format-patch",
which took me a few weeks to pursuade Linus to take in 2005, seems
to have become the de-facto standard tool to produce patch e-mails.
Interestingly, the documentation for "git apply", which is listed in
SEE ALSO section of "git am" documentation, does mention "am" and
"format-patch" as two things that are related but different from
"apply" in an early part.

This option helps to record specific empty patches in the middle
of an am session, which does create empty commits only when:

2. lacking a branch
When the index has changed, "--allow-empty" will create a non-empty

Since that the command 'git-format-patch' can include patches of

valid options ('stop', 'drop' and 'keep').

Both Johannes and I assumed (perhaps due to familiarity with rebase)
that am --abort would return the user to a clean state. However, since
am, unlike rebase, is intended to be used within a dirty working tree,
--abort will only clean the files involved in the am operation.

Ted reported an old typo in the git-commit.txt and merge-options.txt.
Namely, the phrase "Signed-off-by line" was used without either a
definite nor indefinite article.
Upon examination, it seems that the documentation (including items in
Documentation/, but also option help strings) have been quite
inconsistent on usage when referring to `Signed-off-by`.
First, very few places used a definite or indefinite article with the
phrase "Signed-off-by line", but that was the initial typo that led
to this investigation. So, normalize using either an indefinite or
definite article consistently.
The original phrasing, in Commit 3f971fc425b (Documentation updates,
2005-08-14), is "Add Signed-off-by line". Commit 6f855371a53 (Add
--signoff, --check, and long option-names. 2005-12-09) switched to
using "Add `Signed-off-by:` line", but didn't normalize the former
commit to match. Later commits seem to have cut and pasted from one
or the other, which is likely how the usage became so inconsistent.
Junio stated on the git mailing list in
<xmqqy2k1dfoh.fsf@gitster.c.googlers.com> a preference to leave off
the colon. Thus, prefer `Signed-off-by` (with backticks) for the
documentation files and Signed-off-by (without backticks) for option
help strings.
Additionally, Junio argued that "trailer" is now the standard term to
refer to `Signed-off-by`, saying that "becomes plenty clear that we
are not talking about any random line in the log message". As such,
prefer "trailer" over "line" anywhere the former word fits.
However, leave alone those few places in documentation that use
Signed-off-by to refer to the process (rather than the specific
trailer), or in places where mail headers are generally discussed in
comparison with Signed-off-by.

When "git am --show-current-patch" was added in commit 984913a210 ("am:
add --show-current-patch", 2018-02-12), "git am" started recommending it
as a replacement for .git/rebase-merge/patch. Unfortunately the suggestion
is somewhat misguided; for example, the output of "git am --show-current-patch"
cannot be passed to "git apply" if it is encoded as quoted-printable
or base64. Add a new mode to "git am --show-current-patch" in order to
straighten the suggestion.

When "git am --show-current-patch" was added in commit 984913a210 ("am:
add --show-current-patch", 2018-02-12), "git am" started recommending it
as a replacement for .git/rebase-merge/patch. Unfortunately the suggestion
is somewhat misguided; for example, the output "git am --show-current-patch"
cannot be passed to "git apply" if it is encoded as quoted-printable or
base64. To simplify worktree operations and to avoid that users poke into
.git, it would be better if "git am" also provided a mode that copies
.git/rebase-merge/patch to stdout.
One possibility could be to have completely separate options, introducing
for example --show-current-message (for .git/rebase-apply/NNNN)
and --show-current-diff (for .git/rebase-apply/patch), while possibly
deprecating --show-current-patch.
That would even remove the need for the first two patches in the series.
However, the long common prefix would have prevented using an abbreviated
option such as "--show". Therefore, I chose instead to add a string
argument to --show-current-patch. The new argument is optional, so that
"git am --show-current-patch"'s behavior remains backwards-compatible.
The next choice to make is how to handle multiple --show-current-patch
options. Right now, something like "git am --abort --show-current-patch"
is rejected, and the previous suggestion would likewise have naturally
rejected a command line like
git am --show-current-message --show-current-diff
Therefore, I decided to also reject for example
git am --show-current-patch=diff --show-current-patch=raw
In other words the whole of --show-current-patch=xxx (including the
optional argument) is treated as the command mode. I found this to be
more consistent and intuitive, even though it differs from the usual
"last one wins" semantics of the git command line.
Add the code to parse submodes based on the above design, where for now
"raw" is the only valid submode. "raw" prints the full e-mail message
just like "git am --show-current-patch".

Improve the documentation of commands taking optional arguments in two
ways:
* Documents the behavior of '-O' (for grep) and '-S' (for commands
creating commits) when used without the optional argument.
* Document the syntax of these options.
For the second point, the behavior is documented in gitcli(7), but it is
easy for users to miss, and hard for the same user to understand why e.g.
"git status -u no" does not work.
Document this explicitly in the documentation of each short option having
an optional argument: they are the most error prone since there is no '='
sign between the option and its argument.

Suggest 'git am --abort' instead.
It's not quite the same as the original, because 'git am --abort' will

won't, but that's rather a thinko in the original wording, because
that won't actually "start over _from scratch_".

The point of these sections is generally to:
1. Give credit where it is due.
2. Give the reader an idea of where to ask questions or
file bug reports.
But they don't do a good job of either case. For (1), they
are out of date and incomplete. A much more accurate answer
can be gotten through shortlog or blame. For (2), the
correct contact point is generally git@vger, and even if you
wanted to cc the contact point, the out-of-date and
incomplete fields mean you're likely sending to somebody
useless.
So let's drop the fields entirely from all manpages except
git(1) itself. We already point people to the mailing list
for bug reports there, and we can update the Authors section
to give credit to the major contributors and point to
shortlog and blame for more information.
Each page has a "This is part of git" footer, so people can
follow that to the main git manpage.

The documentation was quite inconsistent when spelling 'git cmd' if it
only refers to the program, not to some specific invocation syntax:
both 'git-cmd' and 'git cmd' spellings exist.
The current trend goes towards dashless forms, and there is precedent

git-am and git-rebase are talkative scripts. Teach them to be quiet when
told, allowing them to speak only when they fail or experience errors.
The quiet option is maintained when git-am or git-rebase fails to apply
a patch. This means subsequent --resolved, --continue, --skip, --abort
invocations will be quiet if the original invocation was quiet.
Drop a handful of >&2 redirection; the rest of the program sends all the
info messages to stdout, not to stderr.

This new option tells 'git-am' to ignore the date header field
recorded in the format-patch output. The commits will have the
timestamp when they are created instead.
You can work a lot in one day to accumulate many changes, but
apply and push to the public repository only some of them at
the end of the first day. Then next day you can spend all your
working hours reading comics or chatting with your coworkers,
and apply your remaining patches from the previous day using
this option to pretend that you have been working at the end
of the day.

Thanks to a200337 (git-am: propagate -C<n>, -p<n> options as well,

Since the git-* commands are not installed in $(bindir), using
"git-command <parameters>" in examples in the documentation is
not a good idea. On the other hand, it is nice to be able to
refer to each command using one hyphenated word. (There is no
escaping it, anyway: man page names cannot have spaces in them.)
This patch retains the dash in naming an operation, command,
program, process, or action. Complete command lines that can
be entered at a shell (i.e., without options omitted) are
made to use the dashless form.
The changes consist only of replacing some spaces with hyphens
and vice versa. After a "s/ /-/g", the unpatched and patched
versions are identical.

The OPTIONS section of a documentation file contains a list
of the options a git command accepts.
Currently there are several variants to describe the case that
different options (almost) do the same in the OPTIONS section.
Some are:
-f, --foo::
-f|--foo::
-f | --foo::
But AsciiDoc has the special form:
-f::
--foo::
This patch applies this form to the documentation of the whole git suite,
and removes useless em-dash prevention, so \--foo becomes --foo.

It has been supported for a long time, but I do not think this feature has

This default regex now matches explicit values, and unfortunately in this
case gitlink was being matched by just 'link', causing the wrong inline
macro template to be applied. By renaming the macro, we can avoid being
matched by the wrong regex.

I believe noone uses git-applymbox, and noone definitely should, since it
is supposed to be completely superseded and everything by its younger
cousin git-am. The only known person in the universe to use it was Linus
and he declared some time ago that he will try to use git-am instead in his
famous dotest script.
The trouble is that git-applymbox existence creates confusing UI. I'm a bit
like a recycled newbie to the git porcelain and *I* was confused by
git-applymbox primitiveness until I've realized a while later that I'm of
course using the wrong command.
