t5704: match tests to modern style
strbuf: improve strbuf_get*line documentation
bundle: use a strbuf to scan the log for boundary commits
bundle: put strbuf_readline_fd in strbuf.c with adjustments
Change "it's" to "its" where a possessive is intended. Also add two
missing "the" that were noticed by Ben Walton.

This adds the 'remaining' command to the documentation of
'git rerere'. This command was added in ac49f5ca (Feb 16 2011;
Martin von Zweigbergk <martin.von.zweigbergk@gmail.com>) but
it was never documented.
Touch up the other rerere commands to reduce noise.
First noticed by Vincent van Ravesteijn.

Text between two '*' is emphasized in AsciiDoc and makes explanations in
rev-list-options.txt on glob-related options very confusing, as the
rendered text would be missing two asterisks and the text between them
would be emphasized instead.
Use '{asterisk}' where needed to make them show up as asterisks in the
rendered text.

The description of rerere.enabled left the user in the dark as to who
might create an rr-cache directory. Add a note that simply invoking
rerere does this.
Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
The wording seems to suggest that creating the directory is needed and the
setting of rerere.enabled is only for disabling the feature by setting it
to 'false'. But the configuration is meant to be the primary control and
setting it to 'true' will enable it; the rr-cache directory will be
created as necessary and the user does not have to create it.

* maint-1.7.7:
docs: describe behavior of relative submodule URLs
Documentation: read-tree --prefix works with existing subtrees
Add MYMETA.json to perl/.gitignore
Since the relative submodule URLs have been introduced in f31a522a2d, they
do not conform to the rules for resolving relative URIs but rather to
those of relative directories.
Document that behavior.

92c62a3 (Porcelain scripts: Rewrite cryptic "needs update" error
message, 2010-10-19) refactored git's own checking to a function in
git-sh-setup. This is a very useful thing for script writers, so
document it.

By definition, the default value of "advice.*" variables must be true and
they all control various additional help messages that are designed to aid
new users. Setting one to false is to tell Git that the user understands
the nature of the error and does not need the additional verbose help
message.
Also fix the asciidoc markup for linkgit:git-checkout[1] in the
description of the detachedHead advice by removing an excess colon.

After the description and options, the fsck manpage contains
some discussion about what it does. Over time, this
discussion has become somewhat obsolete, both in content and
formatting. In particular:
1. There are many options now, so starting the discussion
with "It tests..." makes it unclear whether we are
talking about the last option, or about the tool in
general. Let's start a new "discussion" section and
make our antecedent more clear.
2. It gave an example for --unreachable using for-each-ref
to mention all of the heads, saying that it will do "a
_lot_ of verification". This is hopelessly out-of-date,
as giving no arguments will check much more (reflogs,
the index, non-head refs).
3. It goes on to mention tests "to be added" (like tree
object sorting). We now have these tests.
