d3e0598330 git-tag: introduce --cleanup option
Normally git tag strips tag message lines starting with '#', trailing
spaces from every line and empty lines from the beginning and end.

--cleanup allows to select different cleanup modes for tag message.
It provides the same interface as --cleanup option in git-commit.

c97eff5a95 git-tag: introduce long forms for the options
Long forms are better to memorize and more reliably uniform across
commands.

Design notes:

-u,--local-user is named following the analogous gnupg option.

-l,--list is not an argument taking option but a mode switch.

588d0e834b tag: accept multiple patterns for --list
Until now, "git tag -l foo* bar*" would silently ignore the
second argument, showing only refs starting with "foo". It's
not just unfriendly not to take a second pattern; we
actually generated subtly wrong results (from the user's
perspective) because some of the requested tags were
omitted.

This patch allows an arbitrary number of patterns on the
command line; if any of them matches, the ref is shown.

While we're tweaking the documentation, let's also make it
clear that the pattern is fnmatch.

48bb914ed6 doc: drop author/documentation sections from most pages
The point of these sections is generally to:

  1. Give credit where it is due.

  2. Give the reader an idea of where to ask questions or
     file bug reports.

But they don't do a good job of either case. For (1), they
are out of date and incomplete. A much more accurate answer
can be gotten through shortlog or blame.  For (2), the
correct contact point is generally git@vger, and even if you
wanted to cc the contact point, the out-of-date and
incomplete fields mean you're likely sending to somebody
useless.

So let's drop the fields entirely from all manpages except
git(1) itself. We already point people to the mailing list
for bug reports there, and we can update the Authors section
to give credit to the major contributors and point to
shortlog and blame for more information.

Each page has a "This is part of git" footer, so people can
follow that to the main git manpage.

Currently, the description sounds as if it applied always, but most of
its content is true in "create tag mode" only.

Make this clearer by listing all modes upfront.

Also, sneak in some linguistic improvements and make it clearer that
lightweight tags are "created" because "written" may be misread as
"are output".

0b444cdb19 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.

a2d07d80ec document that git-tag can tag more than heads
After looking the git-tag manpage, someone on #git wondered how
to tag a commit that is not a branch head.  This patch changes
the synopsis to say "<commit> | <object>" instead of "<head>" to
address his question.

Samuel Bronson had the idea of putting "<commit> | <object>"
for "<object>" because most tags point to commits (and for the
rest of the manpage, all tags point to commits).

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.

46e56e81b3 Documentation: prepare to be consistent about "git-" versus "git "
With the dashed forms of git commands not in $(bindir), we have
to change many instances of "git-command" to "git command". Also,
for consistency it is at times appropriate to make the opposite
change. In some cases, the change is not so simple as changing one
character.

This patch gets rid of some of those cases by rewrapping lines.

3f36cbbaaf Fix documentation syntax of optional arguments in short options.
When an argument for an option is optional, like in -n from git-tag,
puting a space between the option and the argument is interpreted
as a missing argument for the option plus an isolated argument.
Documentation now reflects the need to write the parameter following
the option -n, as in "git tag -nARG", for instance.

 # Inline macros.
 # Backslash prefix required for escape processing.

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.

62e09ce998 Make git tag a builtin.
This replaces the script "git-tag.sh" with "builtin-tag.c".

The existing test suite for "git tag" guarantees the compatibility
with the features provided by the script version.

There are some minor changes in the behaviour of "git tag" here:
"git tag -v" now can get more than one tag to verify, like "git tag -d" does,
"git tag" with no arguments prints all tags, more like "git branch" does,
and "git tag -n" also prints all tags with annotations (without needing -l).
Tests and documentation were also updated to reflect these changes.

The program is currently calling the script "git verify-tag" for verify.
This can be changed porting it to C and calling its functions directly
from builtin-tag.c.

980ea5c5bb Teach git-tag about showing tag annotations.
The <pattern> for -l is now a shell pattern, not a list of grep parameters.
Option -l may be repeated with another <pattern>.

The new -n [<num>] option specifies how many lines from
the annotation are to be printed.
Not specifieing -n or -n 0 will just produce the tag names
Just -n or -n 1 will show the first line of the annotation on
the tag line.
Other valuse for -n will show that number of lines from the annotation.

The exit code used to indicate if any tag was found.
This is changed due to a different implementation.

A good way to test a tag for existence is to use:

d67778eccd Allow the tag signing key to be specified in the config file
I did this:

  $ git tag -s test-sign
  gpg: skipped "Andy Parkins <andyparkins@gmail.com>": secret key not available
  gpg: signing failed: secret key not available
  failed to sign the tag with GPG.

The problem is that I have used the comment field in my key's UID
definition.

  $ gpg --list-keys andy
  pub   1024D/4F712F6D 2003-08-14
  uid                  Andy Parkins (Google) <andyparkins@gmail.com>

So when git-tag looks for "Andy Parkins <andyparkins@gmail.com>";
obviously it's not going to be found.

There shouldn't be a requirement that I use the same form of my name in
my git repository and my gpg key - I might want to be formal (Andrew) in
my gpg key and informal (Andy) in the repository.  Further I might have
multiple keys in my keyring, and might want to use one that doesn't
match up with the address I use in commit messages.

This patch adds a configuration entry "user.signingkey" which, if
present, will be passed to the "-u" switch for gpg, allowing the tag
signing key to be overridden.  If the entry is not present, the fallback
is the original method, which means existing behaviour will continue
untouched.
