Max Horn 2672671872 doc: add some crossrefs between manual pages
In particular, git-fast-import and -export link to each
other, and gitremote-helpers links to existing remote
helpers, and vice versa. Also link to fast-import from the
remote helper spec, as this is relevant for remote helpers
using the fast-import format.

Michael Haggerty 8169007468 doc: remote author/documentation sections from more pages
We decided at 48bb914e (doc: drop author/documentation sections from
most pages, 2011-03-11) to remove "author" and "documentation"
sections from our documentation.  Remove a few stragglers.

Jeff King 5d2fc9135a docs: put listed example commands in backticks
Many examples of git command invocation are given in asciidoc listing
blocks, which makes them monospaced and avoids further interpretation of
special characters.  Some manpages make a list of examples, like:

  git foo::
    Run git foo.

  git foo -q::
    Use the "-q" option.

to quickly show many variants. However, they can sometimes be hard to
read, because they are shown in a proportional-width font (so, for
example, seeing the difference between "-- foo" and "--foo" can be
difficult).

This patch puts all such examples into backticks, which gives the
equivalent formatting to a listing block (i.e., monospaced and without
character interpretation).

As a bonus, this also fixes an example in the git-push manpage, in which
"git push origin :::" was accidentally considered a newly-indented list,
and not a list item with "git push origin :" in it.

Ilari Liusvaara 7851b1e60f remote-fd/ext: finishing touches after code review
When compiling with pthread support, transport-helper.c needs to include
necessary header files.  Also fix a few error messages in remote-ext and
remote-fd programs, and a potential buffer underrun in remote-fd.

In the documentation, clarify how %G and %V are used; the old description
looked as if they take repository/vhost parameters, which was wrong.

Also fix AsciiDoc markup for the page title of remote-fd/remote-ext manpages,
and tweak the way how section headers are shown.

Ilari Liusvaara 3a9ed4bdee git-remote-fd
This remote helper reflects raw smart remote transport stream back to the
calling program. This is useful for example if some UI wants to handle
ssh itself and not use hacks via GIT_SSH.
