brian m. carlson 1f010d6bdf doc: use .adoc extension for AsciiDoc files
We presently use the ".txt" extension for our AsciiDoc files.  While not
wrong, most editors do not associate this extension with AsciiDoc,
meaning that contributors don't get automatic editor functionality that
could be useful, such as syntax highlighting and prose linting.

It is much more common to use the ".adoc" extension for AsciiDoc files,
since this helps editors automatically detect files and also allows
various forges to provide rich (HTML-like) rendering.  Let's do that
here, renaming all of the files and updating the includes where
relevant.  Adjust the various build scripts and makefiles to use the new
extension as well.

Note that this should not result in any user-visible changes to the
documentation.

GIT v1.5.1.2 Release Notes
==========================
Fixes since v1.5.1.1
--------------------
* Bugfixes
- "git clone" over http from a repository that has lost the
loose refs by running "git pack-refs" were broken (a code to
deal with this was added to "git fetch" in v1.5.0, but it
was missing from "git clone").
- "git diff a/ b/" incorrectly fell in "diff between two
filesystem objects" codepath, when the user most likely
wanted to limit the extent of output to two tracked
directories.
- git-quiltimport had the same bug as we fixed for
git-applymbox in v1.5.1.1 -- it gave an alarming "did not
have any patch" message (but did not actually fail and was
harmless).
- various git-svn fixes.
- Sample update hook incorrectly always refused requests to
delete branches through push.
- git-blame on a very long working tree path had buffer
overrun problem.
- git-apply did not like to be fed two patches in a row that created
and then modified the same file.
- git-svn was confused when a non-project was stored directly under
trunk/, branches/ and tags/.
- git-svn wants the Error.pm module that was at least as new
as what we ship as part of git; install ours in our private
installation location if the one on the system is older.
- An earlier update to command line integer parameter parser was
botched and made 'update-index --cacheinfo' completely useless.
* Documentation updates
- Various documentation updates from J. Bruce Fields, Frank
Lichtenheld, Alex Riesen and others. Andrew Ruder started a
war on undocumented options.
