Martin Ågren 4c399442f7 Doc: refer to the "commit-graph file" with dash
The file processed by `git commit-graph` is referred to as the
"commit-graph file", also with a dash. We have a few references to the
"commit graph file", though, without the dash. These occur in
git-commit-graph.txt as well as in Doc/technical/commit-graph.txt. Fix
them.

Do not change the references to the "commit graph" (without "... file")
as a data structure.

Martin Ågren 4893d717a4 git-commit-graph.txt: refer to "*commit*-graph file"
This document sometimes refers to the "commit-graph file" as just "the
graph file". This saves a couple of words here and there at the risk of
confusion. In particular, the documentation for `git commit-graph read`
appears to suggest that there are indeed different types of graph files.

Let's just write out the full name everywhere.

The full name, by the way, is not the dash-less "commit graph file".
Use the dashed form. (The next commit will fix the remaining few
instances of the "commit graph file" in this document.)

Martin Ågren a3a3ca002d git-commit-graph.txt: fix bullet lists
We have a couple of bullet items which span multiple lines, and where we
have prefixed each line with a `*`. (This might be the result of a text
editor trying to help.) This results in each line being typeset as a
separate bullet item. Drop the extra `*`.

Derrick Stolee 59fb87701f commit-graph: add '--reachable' option
When writing commit-graph files, it can be convenient to ask for all
reachable commits (starting at the ref set) in the resulting file. This
is particularly helpful when writing to stdin is complicated, such as a
future integration with 'git gc'.

Derrick Stolee 283e68c72f commit-graph: add 'verify' subcommand
If the commit-graph file becomes corrupt, we need a way to verify
that its contents match the object database. In the manner of
'git fsck' we will implement a 'git commit-graph verify' subcommand
to report all issues with the file.

Add the 'verify' subcommand to the 'commit-graph' builtin and its
documentation. The subcommand is currently a no-op except for
loading the commit-graph into memory, which may trigger run-time
errors that would be caught by normal use. Add a simple test that
ensures the command returns a zero error code.

If no commit-graph file exists, this is an acceptable state. Do
not report any errors.

Derrick Stolee 7547b95b4f commit-graph: implement "--append" option
Teach git-commit-graph to add all commits from the existing
commit-graph file to the file about to be written. This should be
used when adding new commits without performing garbage collection.

Derrick Stolee 3d5df01b5e commit-graph: build graph from starting commits
Teach git-commit-graph to read commits from stdin when the
--stdin-commits flag is specified. Commits reachable from these
commits are added to the graph. This is a much faster way to construct
the graph than inspecting all packed objects, but is restricted to
known tips.

For the Linux repository, 700,000+ commits were added to the graph
file starting from 'master' in 7-9 seconds, depending on the number
of packfiles in the repo (1, 24, or 120).

Derrick Stolee 049d51a2bb commit-graph: read only from specific pack-indexes
Teach git-commit-graph to inspect the objects only in a certain list
of pack-indexes within the given pack directory. This allows updating
the commit graph iteratively.
