doc: add 'everyday' to 'git help'

2014-10-10T23:02:26+00:00

The "Everyday GIT With 20 Commands Or So" is not accessible via the
Git help system.  Move everyday.txt to giteveryday.txt so that "git
help everyday" works, and create a new placeholder file everyday.html
to refer people who follow existing URLs to the updated location.

giteveryday.txt now formats well with AsciiDoc as a man page and
refreshed content to a more command modern style.

Add 'everyday' to the help --guides list and update git(1) and 5
other links to giteveryday.

Documentation: avoid poor-man's small caps GIT

2013-02-01T21:53:25+00:00

In the earlier days, we used to spell the name of the system as GIT,
to simulate as if it were typeset with capital G and IT in small
caps.  Later we stopped doing so at around 1.6.5 days.

Let's stop doing so throughout the documentation.  The name to refer
to the whole system (and the concept it embodies) is "Git"; the
command end-users type is "git".  And document this in the coding
guideline.

Documentation: describe subject more precisely

2012-09-14T04:30:21+00:00

The discussion of email subject throughout the documentation is
misleading; it indicates that the first line will always become
the subject.  In fact, the subject is generally all lines up until
the first full blank line.

This patch refines that, and makes more use of the concept of a
commit title, with the title being all text up to the first blank line.

Documentation: use [verse] for SYNOPSIS sections

2011-07-06T21:26:26+00:00

The SYNOPSIS sections of most commands that span several lines already
use [verse] to retain line breaks. Most commands that don't span
several lines seem not to use [verse]. In the HTML output, [verse]
does not only preserve line breaks, but also makes the section
indented, which causes a slight inconsistency between commands that
use [verse] and those that don't. Use [verse] in all SYNOPSIS sections
for consistency.

Also remove the blank lines from git-fetch.txt and git-rebase.txt to
align with the other man pages. In the case of git-rebase.txt, which
already uses [verse], the blank line makes the [verse] not apply to
the last line, so removing the blank line also makes the formatting
within the document more consistent.

While at it, add single quotes to 'git cvsimport' for consistency with
other commands.

Change remote tracking to remote-tracking in non-trivial places

Replace "remote tracking" with "remote-tracking"

2010-11-03T16:19:04+00:00

"remote-tracking" branch makes it explicit that the branch is "tracking a
remote", as opposed to "remote, and tracking something".

See discussion in e.g.
http://mid.gmane.org/8835ADF9-45E5-4A26-9F7F-A72ECC065BB2@gmail.com
for more details.

This patch is a straightforward application of

  perl -pi -e 's/remote tracking branch/remote-tracking branch/'

except in the RelNotes directory.
