Jan Krüger 9e77353e0e Documentation: git-svn: fix example for centralized SVN clone
The example that tells users how to centralize the effort of the initial
git svn clone operation doesn't work properly. It uses rebase but that
only works if HEAD exists. This adds one extra command to create a
somewhat sensible HEAD that should work in all cases.

Eric Wong ba24e7457a git-svn: add ability to specify --commit-url for dcommit
This allows one to use public svn:// URLs for fetch and
svn+ssh:// URLs for committing (without using the complicated
rewriteRoot option, reimporting or git-filter-branch).

Using this can also help avoid unnecessary server
authentication/encryption overhead on busy SVN servers.

Along with the new --revision option, this can also be allowed
to override the branch detection in dcommit, too.  This is
potentially dangerous and not recommended!  (And also purposely
undocumented, but the loaded gun is there in case somebody
wants to make it safe).

Brian Gernhardt 8cb070a4cf Documentation: Remove mentions of git-svnimport.
git-svnimport is no longer supported, so don't mention it in the
documentation.  This also updates the description, removing the
historical discussion, since it mostly dealt with how it differed from
svnimport.  The new description gives some starting points into the
rest of the documentation.

Jonathan Nieder 2fd02c92db manpages: italicize nongit command names (if they are in teletype font)
Some manual pages use teletype font to set command names. We
change them to use italics, instead.  This creates a visual
distinction between names of commands and command lines that
can be typed at the command line. It is also more consistent
with other man pages outside Git.

In this patch, the commands named are non-git commands like bash.

Jonathan Nieder 483bc4f045 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.

Jonathan Nieder b1889c36d8 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.

where there are scripts that read the output of svn blame, it's useful

 # Inline macros.
 # Backslash prefix required for escape processing.
 # (?s) re flag for line spanning.

This default regex now matches explicit values, and unfortunately in this
case gitlink was being matched by just 'link', causing the wrong inline
macro template to be applied. By renaming the macro, we can avoid being
matched by the wrong regex.

Karl Hasselström 171af11082 Add --no-rebase option to git-svn dcommit
git-svn dcommit exports commits to Subversion, then imports them back
to git again, and last but not least rebases or resets HEAD to the
last of the new commits. I guess this rebasing is convenient when
using just git, but when the commits to be exported are managed by
StGIT, it's really annoying. So add an option to disable this
behavior. And document it, too!
