Michael J Gruber f028cdae66 Documentation: link to gitrevisions rather than git-rev-parse
Currently, whenever we need documentation for revisions and ranges, we
link to the git-rev-parse man page, i.e. a plumbing man page, which has
this along with the documentation of all rev-parse modes.

Link to the new gitrevisions man page instead in all cases except
- when the actual git-rev-parse command is referred to or
- in very technical context (git-send-pack).

Thomas Rast 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.

Jonathan Nieder 467c0197fd Documentation: more "git-" versus "git " changes
With git-commands moving out of $(bindir), it is useful to make a
clearer distinction between the git subcommand 'git-whatever' and
the command you type, `git whatever <options>`.  So we use a dash
after "git" when referring to the former and not the latter.

I already sent a patch doing this same thing, but I missed some
spots.

Christian Couder 9e1f0a85c6 documentation: move git(7) to git(1)
As the "git" man page describes the "git" command at the end-user

Dan McGee 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*?)(\[(?P<attrlist>.*?)\])=

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.

Matthieu Moy 97e92e2cbc Doc fix for git-reflog: mention @{...} syntax, and <ref> in synopsys.
The HEAD@{...} syntax was documented in git-rev-parse manpage, which
is hard to find by someone looking for the documentation of porcelain.
git-reflog is probably the place where one expects to find this.

While I'm there, "git revlog show whatever" was also undocumented.

Johannes Schindelin 552cecc214 Teach "git reflog" a subcommand to delete single entries
This commit implements the "delete" subcommand:

	git reflog delete master@{2}

will delete the second reflog entry of the "master" branch.

With this, it should be easy to implement "git stash pop" everybody
seems to want these days.

Shawn O. Pearce 95064cbcc8 Correct documentation of 'reflog show' to explain it shows HEAD
By default 'git reflog show' will show the reflog of 'HEAD' and not
the reflog of the current branch.  This is most likely due to the
work done a while ago as part of the detached HEAD series to allow
HEAD to have its own reflog independent of each branch's reflog.

Since 'git reflog show' is really just an obscure alias for 'git
log -g --abbrev-commit --pretty=oneline' it should behave the same
way and its documentation should match.

Linus Torvalds cf39f54efc git reflog show
It makes "git reflog [show]" act as

	git log -g --pretty=oneline --abbrev-cmit

and is fairly straightforward. So you can just write

	git reflog

or

	git reflog show

and it will show you the reflog in a nice format.
