Replace 'committish' in documentation and comments with 'commit-ish'
to match gitglossary(7) and to be consistent with 'tree-ish'.

The only remaining instances of 'committish' are:
  * variable, function, and macro names
  * "(also committish)" in the definition of commit-ish in
    gitglossary[7]

<title>name-rev: allow to specify a subpath for --refs option</title>

<id>98c5c4ad01551b7764c9c8d8f67abfa9c5e595fe</id>
<content type='text'>
When an user wants to filter specific ref using the --refs option,
the pattern needs to match the full ref, e.g. --refs=refs/tags/v1.*.

It'd be convenient to specify a subpath of ref pattern.  For
example, --refs=origin/* can find refs/remotes/origin/master by
searching the pattern against its substrings in turn:

  refs/remotes/origin/master
  remotes/origin/master
  origin/master

If it finds a match in a subpath, unambigous part of the ref path will
be removed in the output.

<title>doc: drop author/documentation sections from most pages</title>

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are out of date and incomplete.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wanted to cc the contact point, the out-of-date and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.

<title>Documentation: spell 'git cmd' without dash throughout</title>

<id>0b444cdb19bcfcc7f59b7b00783cbfbbc5ddcf63</id>
<content type='text'>
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
in 647ac70 (git-svn.txt: stop using dash-form of commands.,
2009-07-07) to actively eliminate the dashed variants.

Replace 'git-cmd' with 'git cmd' throughout, except where git-shell,
git-cvsserver, git-upload-pack, git-receive-pack, and
git-upload-archive are concerned, because those really live in the
$PATH.

Since 59d3f54 (name-rev: avoid "^0" when unneeded, 2007-02-20), name-rev
stopped showing an unnecessary "^0" to dereference a tag down to a commit.
The patch should have made a matching update to the documentation, but we
forgot.

<title>manpages: italicize git command names (which were in teletype font)</title>

The names of git commands are not meant to be entered at the
commandline; they are just names. So we render them in italics,
as is usual for command names in manpages.

Using

	doit () {
	  perl -e 'for (&lt;&gt;) { s/\`(git-[^\`.]*)\`/'\''\1'\''/g; print }'
	}
	for i in git*.txt config.txt diff*.txt blame*.txt fetch*.txt i18n.txt \
	        merge*.txt pretty*.txt pull*.txt rev*.txt urls*.txt
	do
	  doit &lt;"$i" &gt;"$i+" &amp;&amp; mv "$i+" "$i"
	done
	git diff
