The fixes focuses on improving the HTML output. Most noteworthy:
- Fix the Makefile to also make various *.html files depend on
included files.
- Consistently use 'NOTE: ...' instead of '[ ... ]' for additional
info.
- Fix ending '::' for description lists in OPTION section etc.
- Fix paragraphs in description lists ending up as preformated text.
- Always use listingblocks (preformatted text wrapped in lines with -----)
for examples that span empty lines, so they are put in only one HTML
block.
- Use '1.' instead of '(1)' for numbered lists.
- Fix linking to other GIT docs.
- git-rev-list.txt: put option descriptions in an OPTION section.

In the tutorial, there is a section entitled "Checking it out"
that shows how to use diff log and whatchanged to insect some

As the phrase "checkout" ususally carries some baggage WRT
other revision control mechanism, I suggest that we re-title
this section something like "Inspecting Changes".

git-export was done as a concept example on how easy it is to export
the git data to something else. It's much less powerful than any
number of trivial one-liner scripts now, and real exporters would not
ever use git-export.
It's obviously much less powerful than "git-whatchanged", or just
about any combination of git-rev-list + git-diff-tree.

As promised, this is the "big tool rename" patch. The primary differences
since 0.99.6 are:
(1) git-*-script are no more. The commands installed do not
have any such suffix so users do not have to remember if
something is implemented as a shell script or not.
(2) Many command names with 'cache' in them are renamed with
'index' if that is what they mean.
There are backward compatibility symblic links so that you and
Porcelains can keep using the old names, but the backward
compatibility support is expected to be removed in the near
future.

Early versions of git-cvsimport defaulted to using preexisting keyword
expansion settings. This change preserves compatibility with existing cvs
imports and allows new repository migrations to kill keyword expansion.
After exploration of the different -k modes in the cvs protocol, we use -kk
which kills keyword expansion wherever possible. Against the protocol
spec, -ko and -kb will sometimes expand keywords.
Should improve our chances of detecting merges and reduce imported
repository size.

It also fixes a longstanding obsolete description of how the command

Just before updating a ref,
$GIT_DIR/hooks/update refname old-sha1 new-sha1
is called if executable. The hook can decline the ref to be
updated by exiting with a non-zero status, or allow it to be
updated by exiting with a zero status. The mechanism also
allows e.g sending of a mail with pushed commits on the remote
repository.
Documentation update with an example hook is included.
jc: The credits of the basic idea and initial implementation go
to Josef, but I ended up rewriting major parts of his patch, so
bugs are all mine. Also I changed the semantics for the hook
from his original version (which were post-update hook) so that
the hook can optionally decline to update the ref, and also can
be used to implement the overall cleanups. The latter was
primarily to implement a suggestion from Linus that calling
update-server-info should be made optional.

that the use of filenames "a" and "b" in the tutorial example
was unnecessarily confusing, especially with our "patch -p1"

tempted to change them back to l/ and k/ prefixes, but decided

Given a list of <pack>.idx files, this command validates the
index file and the corresponding .pack file for consistency.
This patch also uses the same validation mechanism in fsck-cache
when the --full flag is used.
During normal operation, sha1_file.c verifies that a given .idx
file matches the .pack file by comparing the SHA1 checksum
stored in .idx file and .pack file as a minimum sanity check.
We may further want to check the pack signature and version when
we map the pack, but that would be a separate patch.
Earlier, errors to map a pack file was not flagged fatal but led
to a random fatal error later. This version explicitly die()s
when such an error is detected.

The fsck-cache complains if objects referred to by files in .git/refs/
or objects stored in files under .git/objects/??/ are not found as
stand-alone SHA1 files (i.e. found in alternate object pools
GIT_ALTERNATE_OBJECT_DIRECTORIES or packed archives stored under
.git/objects/pack).
Although this is a good semantics to maintain consistency of a single
.git/objects directory as a self contained set of objects, it sometimes
is useful to consider it is OK as long as these "outside" objects are
available.
This commit introduces a new flag, --standalone, to git-fsck-cache.
When it is not specified, connectivity checks and .git/refs pointer
checks are taught that it is OK when expected objects do not exist under
.git/objects/?? hierarchy but are available from an packed archive or in
an alternate object pool.
Another new flag, --full, makes git-fsck-cache to check not only the
current GIT_OBJECT_DIRECTORY but also objects found in alternate object
pools and packed GIT archives.a

Patch for a completely rewritten file detected by the -B flag

versions. This was an misguided attempt to make reviewing such
