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.

splitIndex.maxPercentChange::
When the split index feature is used, this specifies the
percent of entries the split index can contain compared to the
total number of entries in both the split index and the shared
index before a new shared index is written.
The value should be between 0 and 100. If the value is 0, then
a new shared index is always written; if it is 100, a new
shared index is never written.
By default, the value is 20, so a new shared index is written
if the number of entries in the split index would be greater
than 20 percent of the total number of entries.
See linkgit:git-update-index[1].
splitIndex.sharedIndexExpire::
When the split index feature is used, shared index files that
were not modified since the time this variable specifies will
be removed when a new shared index file is created. The value
"now" expires all entries immediately, and "never" suppresses
expiration altogether.
The default value is "2.weeks.ago".
Note that a shared index file is considered modified (for the
purpose of expiration) each time a new split-index file is
either created based on it or read from it.
See linkgit:git-update-index[1].
