Descriptions for all the settings fell under the initial "Each
submodule section also contains the following required keys:". The
example shows sections with just 'path' and 'url' entries, which are
indeed required, but we should still make the required/optional
distinction explicit to clarify that the rest of them are optional.

Two packfiles that contain the same set of objects have
traditionally been named identically, but that made repacking a
repository that is already fully packed without any cruft with a
different packing parameter cumbersome. Update the convention to
name the packfile after the bytestream representation of the data,
not after the set of objects in it.

pack-objects doc: treat output filename as opaque

After 1190a1a (pack-objects: name pack files after trailer hash,
2013-12-05), the SHA-1 used to determine the filename is calculated
differently. Update the documentation to not guarantee anything more
than that the SHA-1 depends on the pack content somehow.
Hopefully this will discourage readers from depending on the old or
the new calculation.

Show the total number of paths and the number of paths shown so far
when "git difftool" prompts to launch an external diff tool, which
would give users some sense of progress.

When --prompt option is set, git-difftool displays a prompt for each
modified file to be viewed in an external diff program. At that
point, it could be useful to display a counter and the total number
of files in the diff queue.
Below is the current difftool prompt for the first of 5 modified files:
Viewing: 'diff.c'
Launch 'vimdiff' [Y/n]:
Consider the modified prompt:
Viewing (1/5): 'diff.c'
Launch 'vimdiff' [Y/n]:
The current GIT_EXTERNAL_DIFF mechanism does not tell the number of
paths in the diff queue nor the current counter. To make this
"counter/total" info available for GIT_EXTERNAL_DIFF programs
without breaking existing ones by doing the following:
- Keep track of the number of paths shown so far in diff_options;
- Export two new environment variables from run_external_diff() to
show the total number of paths (from diff_queue_struct) and the
current value of the counter (from diff_options); and
- Update git-difftool--helper to use these two environment variables.

Commit 15a147e (rebase: use @{upstream} if no upstream specified,
2011-02-09) says:
Make it default to 'git rebase @{upstream}'. That is also what
'git pull [--rebase]' defaults to, so it only makes sense that
'git rebase' defaults to the same thing.
but that isn't actually the case. Since commit d44e712 (pull: support
rebased upstream + fetch + pull --rebase, 2009-07-19), pull has actually
chosen the most recent reflog entry which is an ancestor of the current
branch if it can find one.
Add a '--fork-point' argument to git-rebase that can be used to trigger
this behaviour. This option is turned on by default if no non-option
arguments are specified on the command line, otherwise we treat an
upstream specified on the command-line literally.

Make "git push origin master" update the same ref that would be
updated by our 'master' when "git push origin" (no refspecs) is run
while the 'master' branch is checked out, which makes "git push"
more symmetric to "git fetch" and more usable for the triangular
workflow.

Since f2690487 (fetch: opportunistically update tracking refs,
2013-05-11), we stopped taking a non-storing refspec given on the
command line of "git fetch" literally, and instead started mapping
it via remote.$name.fetch refspecs. This allows
$ git fetch origin master
from the 'origin' repository, which is configured with
[remote "origin"]
fetch = +refs/heads/*:refs/remotes/origin/*
to update refs/remotes/origin/master with the result, as if the
command line were
$ git fetch origin +master:refs/remotes/origin/master
to reduce surprises and improve usability. Before that change, a
refspec on the command line without a colon was only to fetch the
history and leave the result in FETCH_HEAD, without updating the
remote-tracking branches.
When you are simulating a fetch from you by your mothership with a
push by you into your mothership, instead of having:
[remote "satellite"]
fetch = +refs/heads/*:refs/remotes/satellite/*
on the mothership repository and running:
mothership$ git fetch satellite
you would have:
[remote "mothership"]
push = +refs/heads/*:refs/remotes/satellite/*
on your satellite machine, and run:
satellite$ git push mothership
Because we so far did not make the corresponding change to the push
side, this command:
satellite$ git push mothership master
does _not_ allow you on the satellite to only push 'master' out but
still to the usual destination (i.e. refs/remotes/satellite/master).
Implement the logic to map an unqualified refspec given on the
command line via the remote.$name.push refspec. This will bring a
bit more symmetry between "fetch" and "push".

Oftentimes people will make the same change in two branches, revert the change
in one branch, and then be surprised when a merge reinstitutes that change when
the branches are merged. Add an explanatory paragraph that explains that this
occurs and the reason why, so people are not surprised.

The release notes for Git 1.5.4 say that "git repo-config" will be
removed in the next feature release. Since Git 2.0 is nearly here,
remove it.

git-cherry(1)'s "description" section has never really managed
to explain to me what the command does. It contains too much
explanation of the algorithm instead of simply saying what
goals it achieves, and too much terminology that we otherwise
do not use (fork-point instead of merge-base).
Try a much more concise approach: state what it finds out, why
this is neat, and how the output is formatted, in a few short
paragraphs. In return, provide much longer examples of how it
fits into a "format-patch | am" based workflow, and how it
compares to reading the same from git-log.
Also carefully avoid using "merge" in a context where it does
not mean something that comes from git-merge(1). Instead, say
"apply" in an attempt to further link to patch workflow
concepts.
While there, also omit the language about _which_ upstream
branch we treat as the default. I literally just learned that
we support having several, so let's not confuse new users
here, especially considering that git-config(1) does not
document this.

The "--tags" option to "git fetch" used to be literally a synonym to
a "refs/tags/*:refs/tags/*" refspec, which meant that (1) as an
explicit refspec given from the command line, it silenced the lazy
"git fetch" default that is configured, and (2) also as an explicit
refspec given from the command line, it interacted with "--prune"
to remove any tag that the remote we are fetching from does not
have.
This demotes it to an option; with it, we fetch all tags in
addition to what would be fetched without the option, and it does
not interact with the decision "--prune" makes to see what
remote-tracking refs the local has are missing the remote
counterpart.

Make it clearer that tags are fetched independent of which branches
were fetched from the remote in any particular fetch. (Tags are even
fetched if they point at objects that are in the current repository
but not reachable, which is probably a bug.)
Put less emphasis on the mechanism and more on the effect of tag
auto-following. Also mention the options and configuration settings
that can change the tag-fetching behavior.

The old behavior of "fetch --prune" was to prune whatever was being
fetched. In particular, "fetch --prune --tags" caused tags not only
to be fetched, but also to be pruned. This is inappropriate because
there is only one tags namespace that is shared among the local
repository and all remotes. Therefore, if the user defines a local
tag and then runs "git fetch --prune --tags", then the local tag is
deleted. Moreover, "--prune" and "--tags" can also be configured via
fetch.prune / remote.<name>.prune and remote.<name>.tagopt, making it
even less obvious that an invocation of "git fetch" could result in
tag lossage.
Since the command "git remote update" invokes "git fetch", it had the
same problem.
The command "git remote prune", on the other hand, disregarded the
setting of remote.<name>.tagopt, and so its behavior was inconsistent
with that of the other commands.
So the old behavior made it too easy to lose tags. To fix this
problem, change "fetch --prune" to prune references based only on
refspecs specified explicitly by the user, either on the command line
or via remote.<name>.fetch. Thus, tags are no longer made subject to
pruning by the --tags option or the remote.<name>.tagopt setting.
However, tags *are* still subject to pruning if they are fetched as
part of a refspec, and that is good. For example:
* On the command line,
git fetch --prune 'refs/tags/*:refs/tags/*'
causes tags, and only tags, to be fetched and pruned, and is
therefore a simple way for the user to get the equivalent of the old
behavior of "--prune --tag".
* For a remote that was configured with the "--mirror" option, the
configuration is set to include
[remote "name"]
fetch = +refs/*:refs/*
, which causes tags to be subject to pruning along with all other
references. This is the behavior that will typically be desired for
a mirror.

Previously, fetch's "--tags" option was considered equivalent to
specifying the refspec "refs/tags/*:refs/tags/*" on the command line;
in particular, it caused the remote.<name>.refspec configuration to be
ignored.
But it is not very useful to fetch tags without also fetching other
references, whereas it *is* quite useful to be able to fetch tags *in
addition to* other references. So change the semantics of this option
to do the latter.
If a user wants to fetch *only* tags, then it is still possible to
specifying an explicit refspec:
git fetch <remote> 'refs/tags/*:refs/tags/*'
Please note that the documentation prior to 1.8.0.3 was ambiguous
about this aspect of "fetch --tags" behavior. Commit
f0cb2f137c 2012-12-14 fetch --tags: clarify documentation
made the documentation match the old behavior. This commit changes
the documentation to match the new behavior.
