41e86a3774 filter-branch documentation: non-zero exit status in command abort the filter
Since commit 8c1ce0f46b filter-branch fails
when a <command> has a non-zero exit status. This commit makes it clear
in the documentation and also fixes the parent-filter example, that was
incorrectly returning non-zero when the commit being tested wasn't the
one to be rewritten.

bb8eebb94f Revert "filter-branch docs: remove brackets so not to imply revision arg is optional"
This reverts commit c41b439244, as
we decided to default to HEAD when revision parameters are missing
and they are no longer mandatory.

5162e69732 Documentation: rename gitlink macro to linkgit
Between AsciiDoc 8.2.2 and 8.2.3, the following change was made to the stock
Asciidoc configuration:

@@ -149,7 +153,10 @@
 # Inline macros.
 # Backslash prefix required for escape processing.
 # (?s) re flag for line spanning.
-(?su)[\\]?(?P<name>\w(\w|-)*?):(?P<target>\S*?)(\[(?P<attrlist>.*?)\])=
+
+# Explicit so they can be nested.
+(?su)[\\]?(?P<name>(http|https|ftp|file|mailto|callto|image|link)):(?P<target>\S*?)(\[(?P<attrlist>.*?)\])=
+
 # Anchor: [[[id]]]. Bibliographic anchor.
 (?su)[\\]?\[\[\[(?P<attrlist>[\w][\w-]*?)\]\]\]=anchor3
 # Anchor: [[id,xreflabel]]

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.

8ef44519a6 fix filter-branch documentation
The man page for filter-branch still talked about writing the result
to the branch "newbranch".  This is hopefully the last place where the
old behaviour was described.

Noticed by Bill Lear.

f95eef15f2 filter-branch: introduce convenience function "skip_commit"
With this function, a commit filter can leave out unwanted commits
(such as temporary commits).  It does _not_ undo the changeset
corresponding to that commit, but it _skips_ the revision.  IOW
no tree object is changed by this.

If you like to commit early and often, but want to filter out all
intermediate commits, marked by "@@@" in the commit message, you can
now do this with

	git filter-branch --commit-filter '
		if git cat-file commit $GIT_COMMIT | grep '@@@' > /dev/null;
		then
			skip_commit "$@";
		else
			git commit-tree "$@";
		fi' newbranch

7e0f1704b8 filter-branch: provide the convenience functions also for commit filters
Move the convenience functions to the top of git-filter-branch.sh, and
return from the script when the environment variable SOURCE_FUNCTIONS is
set.

By sourcing git-filter-branch with that variable set automatically, all
commit filters may access the convenience functions like "map".

082036688f filter-branch: fix remnants of old syntax in documentation
Some time ago, filter-branch's syntax changed so that more than one
ref can be rewritten at the same time.  This involved the removal of
the ref name for the result; instead, the refs are rewritten in-place.

This updates the last leftovers in the documentation to reflect the
new behavior.

dfd05e38f0 filter-branch: Big syntax change; support rewriting multiple refs
We used to take the first non-option argument as the name for the new
branch.  This syntax is not extensible to support rewriting more than just
HEAD.

Instead, we now have the following syntax:

	git filter-branch [<filter options>...] [<rev-list options>]

All positive refs given in <rev-list options> are rewritten.  Yes,
in-place.  If a ref was changed, the original head is stored in
refs/original/$ref now, for your inspecting pleasure, in addition to the
reflogs (since it is easier to inspect "git show-ref | grep original" than
to inspect all the reflogs).

This commit also adds the --force option to remove .git-rewrite/ and all
refs from refs/original/ before filtering.
