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 v1.7.5.3 Release Notes
==========================
Fixes since v1.7.5.2
--------------------
* The bash completion scripts should correctly work using zsh's bash
completion emulation layer now.
* Setting $(prefix) in config.mak did not affect where etc/gitconfig
file is read from, even though passing it from the command line of
$(MAKE) did.
* The logic to handle "&" (expand to UNIX username) in GECOS field
miscounted the length of the name it formatted.
* "git cherry-pick -s resolve" failed to cherry-pick a root commit.
* "git diff --word-diff" misbehaved when diff.suppress-blank-empty was
in effect.
* "git log --stdin path" with an input that has additional pathspec
used to corrupt memory.
* "git send-pack" (hence "git push") over smart-HTTP protocol could
deadlock when the client side pack-object died early.
* Compressed tarball gitweb generates used to be made with the timestamp
of the tarball generation; this was bad because snapshot from the same
tree should result in a same tarball.
And other minor fixes and documentation updates.
