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>

SYNOPSIS
--------
Documentation: use [verse] for SYNOPSIS sections 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.

[verse]
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>

'git verify-tag' <tag>...

DESCRIPTION
-----------
Documentation: spell 'git cmd' without dash throughout 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.

Make the DESCRIPTION match <x>... items in the SYNOPSIS When the SYNOPSIS says e.g. "<path>...", it is nice if the DESCRIPTION also mentions "<path>..." and says the specified "paths" (note plural) are used for $whatever.
