Pavel Roskin 601c978c1b Add --no-commit-id option for git-diff-tree, use it in gitk
This patch introduces -no-commit-id option for git-diff-tree, which
suppresses commit ID output.

[jc: dropped gitk part for now.]

Junio C Hamano 605607cc62 Documentation: "host:path/to/repo" is git native over ssh.
You could also spell it ssh://host:/path/to/repo (or git+ssh,
ssh+git), but without method:// is shorter to type, so mention
only that one in the short and sweet list.

Noticed by Pasky.

Martin Langhoff 5e0306adfa Introducing: git-cvsexportcommit
A script that can replay commits git into a CVS checkout. Tries to ensure the
sanity of the operation and supports mainly manual usage.

If you are reckless enough, you can ask it to autocommit when everything has
applied cleanly. Combined with a couple more scripts could become part of
a git2cvs gateway.

Should support adds/removes and binary files.

Junio C Hamano 95d117b605 Set up remotes/origin to track all remote branches.
This implements the idea Daniel Barkalow came up with, to match
the remotes/origin created by clone by default to the workflow I
use myself in my guinea pig repository, to have me eat my own
dog food.

We probably would want to use either .git/refs/local/heads/*
(idea by Linus) or .git/refs/heads/origin/* instead to reduce
the local ref namespace pollution.

We do not accept multiple <refspecs> on one Pull:/Push: line

lines, so use that form in the examples and discussion.

explicit command line request and never from Pull: lines.

Converted to back-ticks for literal text examples.

[jc: Also fixed git-pull description that still talked about its
calling git-resolve or git-octopus (we do not anymore; instead
we just call git-merge).  BTW, I am reasonably impressed by how
well "git-am -3" applied this patch, which had some conflicts
because I've updated the documentation somewhat.]

Linus Torvalds bd66361195 Add examples for git-log documentation and others.
I don't think people really follow the links or think very abstractly at
all in the first place.

So I was thinking more of some explicit examples. I actually think every
command should have an example in the man-page, and hey, here's a patch to
start things off.

Of course, I'm not exactly "Mr Documentation", and I don't know that this
is the prettiest way to do this, but I checked that the resulting html and
man-page seems at least reasonable.

And hey, if the examples look like each other, that's just because I'm
also not "Mr Imagination".
