Big tool rename. 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.

git-verify-tag(1)
=================
Add placeholders for missing documents. The text does not say anything interesting, but at least the author list should reflect something close to reality. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>

NAME
----
Make verify-tag a builtin. This replaces "git-verify-tag.sh" with "builtin-verify-tag.c". Testing relies on the "git tag -v" tests calling this command. A temporary file is needed when calling to gpg, because git is already creating detached signatures (gpg option -b) to sign tags (instead of leaving gpg to add the signature to the file by itself), and those signatures need to be supplied in a separate file to be verified by gpg. The program uses git_mkstemp to create that temporary file needed by gpg, instead of the previously used "$GIT_DIR/.tmp-vtag", in order to allow the command to be used in read-only repositories, and also prevent other instances of git to read or remove the same file. Signal SIGPIPE is ignored because the program sometimes was terminated because that signal when writing the input for gpg. The command now can receive many tag names to be verified. Documentation is also updated here to reflect this new behaviour. Signed-off-by: Carlos Rica <jasampler@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

git-verify-tag - Check the GPG signature of tags

SYNOPSIS
--------
Documentation: be consistent about "git-" versus "git " Since the git-* commands are not installed in $(bindir), using "git-command <parameters>" in examples in the documentation is not a good idea. On the other hand, it is nice to be able to refer to each command using one hyphenated word. (There is no escaping it, anyway: man page names cannot have spaces in them.) This patch retains the dash in naming an operation, command, program, process, or action. Complete command lines that can be entered at a shell (i.e., without options omitted) are made to use the dashless form. The changes consist only of replacing some spaces with hyphens and vice versa. After a "s/ /-/g", the unpatched and patched versions are identical. Signed-off-by: Jonathan Nieder <jrnieder@uchicago.edu> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

DESCRIPTION
-----------
Documentation formatting and cleanup Following what appears to be the predominant style, format names of commands and commandlines both as `teletype text`. While we're at it, add articles ("a" and "the") in some places, italicize the name of the command in the manual page synopsis line, and add a comma or two where it seems appropriate.
