Francis Daly 3742506578 Some doc typo fixes
All should be clear enough, except perhaps committish / commitish.
I just kept the more-used one within the current docs.

[jc: with rephrasing of check-ref-format description later discussed
 on the list]

sean 2b5f3ed316 Several trivial documentation touch ups.
Move incorrect asciidoc level 2 titles back to level 1.

  Show output of git-name-rev in man page example.

  Reword sentences that begin with a period (.) in asciidoc
  numbered lists to work around conversion to man page bug.

  Mention that git-repack now calls git-prune-packed
  when the -d option is passed to it.

  [imap] section headers in the config file example need to be
  contained in a literal block.  imap.pass is the proper config
  file variable to use, not imap.password.

Johannes Schindelin bd321bcc51 Add git-name-rev
git-name-rev tries to find nice symbolic names for commits. It does so by
walking the commits from the refs. When the symbolic name is ambiguous, the
following heuristic is applied: Try to avoid too many ~'s, and if two ambiguous
names have the same count of ~'s, take the one whose last number is smaller.

With "--tags", the names are derived only from tags.

With "--stdin", the stdin is parsed, and after every sha1 for which a name
could be found, the name is appended. (Try "git log | git name-rev --stdin".)
