a3e3dc4690 Documentation: describe '-f' option to git-fetch.
The option description header was there without body text, confusingly
getting rendered as if the description for --tags applied to the option.

15bf57a18a diff-files: show diffs with stage0 and unmerged stage at the same time.
After thinking about it more, I realized that much of the change
I did on top of Linus' version does not make much sense.  This
commit reverts it so that it by default shows diffs with stage0
paths or stage2 paths with working tree; the unmerged stage to
use can be overridden with -1/-2/-3 option (-2 is the default so
essentially is a no-op).

When the index file is unmerged, we are by definition in the
middle of a conflicting merge, and we should show the diff with
stage 2 by default.  More importantly, paths without conflicts
are updated in the working tree and collapsed to stage0 in the
index, so showing diff with stage0 at the same time does not
hurt.  In normal cases, stage0 entries should be in sync with
the working tree files and does not clutter the output.  It even
helps the user to realize that the working tree has local
changes unrelated to the merge and remember to be careful not to
do a "git-commit -a" after resolving the conflicts.

When there is no unmerged entries, giving diff_unmerged_stage a
default value of 2 does not cause any harm, because it would not
be used anyway.  So in all, always showing diff between stage0
paths and unmerged entries from a stage (defaulting to 2) is the
right thing to do, as Linus originally did.

10637b84d9 diff-files: -1/-2/-3 to diff against unmerged stage.
While resolving conflicted merge, it was not easy to compare the
working tree file with unmerged index entries.  This commit
introduces new options -1/-2/-3 (with synonyms --base, --ours,
and --theirs) to compare working tree files with specified
stages.

When none of these options are given, the command defaults to -2
if the index file is unmerged, otherwise it acts as before.

[jc: majorly butchered from the version Linus originally posted.]

034908047d SVN import: Use one log call
One "svn log" (or its equivalent) per revision adds delay and server load.
Instead, open two SVN connections -- one for the log, and one for the files.

Positive side effect: Only those log entries which actually contain data
are committed => no more empty commits.

Also, change the "-l" option to set the maximum revision to be pulled,
not the number of revisions.

else "-u" (obviously abbreviated from "utf-8") did not make any

011f4274bb apply: allow-binary-replacement.
A new option, --allow-binary-replacement, is introduced.

When you feed a diff that records full SHA1 name of pre- and
post-image blob on its index line to git-apply with this option,
the post-image blob replaces the path if what you have in the
working tree matches the pre-image _and_ post-image blob is
already available in the object directory.

Later we _might_ want to enhance the diff output to also include
the full binary data of the post-image, to make this more
useful, but this is good enough for local rebasing application.
