Junio C Hamano 3ace1fe34b git-merge documentation: conflicting merge leaves higher stages in index
This hopefully concludes the latest updates that changes the
behaviour of the merge on an unsuccessful automerge.  Instead of
collapsing the conflicted path in the index to show HEAD, we
leave it unmerged, now that diff-files can compare working tree
files with higher stages.

Junio C Hamano ffb1a4bed5 Documentation: Describe merge operation a bit better.
In git-merge documentation, add a section to describe what happens to
the index and working tree during merge, and what their cleanliness
requirements are before the merge.

Junio C Hamano fdd089793c Documentation: git-fetch/pull updates.
We do not accept multiple <refspecs> on one Pull:/Push: line
right now (we could lift this tentative workaround for the
broken refnames), but we have always accepted multiple such
lines, so use that form in the examples and discussion.

Also explicitly mention that Octopus is made only with an
explicit command line request and never from Pull: lines.

Add a couple of cross references.

Petr Baudis 3c64314c4b Documentation for git-fmt-merge-msg
Simple description. It appears to be mostly internal command, but hey, it
is (it seems) the only undocumented one, so let's fix it up...

Also add a note about it to git-merge documentation.
