Move howto/using-topic-branches into the user manual as an example for
the "sharing development" chapter. While we're at it, remove some
discussion that's covered in earlier chapters, modernize somewhat (use
separate-heads setup, remotes, replace "whatchanged" by "log", etc.),
and replace syntax we'd need to explain by syntax we've already covered
(e.g. old..new instead of new ^old).
The result may not really describe what Tony Luck does any more.... Hope
that's not annoying.

Update documentation to warn users not to create noise in then Linux
history by creating pointless "Auto-update from upstream" merge
commits.

Recommending this means subsystem maintainers do not have to log-in
just to resync with upstream.

Recommend git over ssh direct to master.kernel.org, instead of
going over rsync to public machines, since this is meant to be a
procedure for kernel subsystem maintainers.
Also fix an obvious typo.

"git resolve" is being deprecated in favour of "git merge".
Update the documentation to reflect this.

Some old scripts might still use git-rev-tree, but it really is
clearly inferior in every way to git-rev-list that such scripts should
be fixed anyway. Fixing them should be pretty easy.

Maybe it's time for me to really learn asciidoc. Also I should do Perl ;-).

Various updates and cleanups for my howto on using branches in GIT
as a Linux subsystem maintainer. Three categories of changes:
1) Updates for new features in GIT 0.99.5
2) Changes to use "git fetch" rather than "git pull" to update
local linus branch.
3) Cleanups suggested by Len Brown

Small fix (use "git branch" to make branches, rather than "git checkout -b").
Optimization for trivial patches (apply to release and merge to test).
Three sample scripts appended.

I would eventually like to move this to become a part of the tutorial,
but anyway, this was an excellent post that describes how topic
branches can be used to keep track of local changes.
