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.

Earlier we always prefixed refs/heads to the token given to "git fetch"
(and "git pull") as refspec. This was a mistake. Allow them to be
spelled like "master:refs/tags/paulus" to mean "I want to fetch the
master there and store it as my local "paulus" tag.

With this we could say:
Pull: master:ko-master +pu:ko-pu
to mean "fast forward ko-master with master, overwrite ko-pu with pu",
and the latter one does not require the remote "pu" to be descendant
of local "ko-pu".
