Enumerate revision range specifiers in the documentation
Make <refname> documentation more consistent.

It was a bit hard to learn how <rev>^@, <rev>^! and various other
forms of range specifiers are used, because they were discussed
mostly in the prose part of the documentation, unlike various forms
of extended SHA-1 expressions that are listed in an enumerated list.
Also add a few more examples showing use of <rev>, <rev>..<rev> and
<rev>^! forms, stolen from a patch by Max Horn.

This way we do not have to risk the list of tools going out of sync
between the implementation and the documentation.
In the same spirit as bf73fc2 (difftool: print list of valid tools
with '--tool-help', 2012-03-29), trim the list of merge backends in
the documentation. We do not want to have a complete list of valid
tools; we only want a list to help people guess what kind of things
the tools do to be specified there, and refer them to --tool-help
for a complete list.

We do not document COMMIT_EDITMSG at all, but users may want
to know about it for two reasons:
1. They may want to tell their editor to configure itself
for formatting a commit message.
2. If a commit is aborted by an error, the user may want
to recover the commit message they typed.
Let's put a note in git-commit(1).

If "git am" fails to apply something, the end user may need to know
where to find the patch that failed to apply, so that the user can
do other things (e.g. trying "GNU patch" on it, running "diffstat"
to see what it tried to change, etc.) The input to "am" may have
contained more than one patch, or the message may have been MIME
encoded, and knowing what the user fed to "am" does not help very
much for this purpose.
Also introduce advice.amworkdir configuration to allow people who
learned where to look to squelch this message.

When given a set of commits, cherry-pick will apply the changes for
all of them. Specifying a simple range will also work as expected.
This can lead the user to think that
git cherry-pick A B..C
may apply A and then B..C, but that is not what happens.
Instead the revs are given to a single invocation of rev-list, which
will consider A and C as positive revs and B as a negative one. The
commit A will not be used if it is an ancestor of B.
Add a note about this and add an example with this particular
syntax, which has shown up on the list a few times.

Commit fe77b41 introduced a new attribute to let the linkgit macro
create cross-directory HTML references from the technical/ and howto/
subdirectories back to the main documentation. We define that attribute
to "../" on the command-line when building inside those subdirectories,
and otherwise leave it unset under the assumption that it would default
to being blank. Instead, asciidoc omits the link entirely, leading to
broken documentation. Fix this by defining git-relative-html-prefix to
blank in asciidoc.conf (and an instance on the command-line, when
present, will override it).

Even with many new kinds of options, the command still takes the
single <tree> as the first argument.
Probably we would want to update the command to allow it to take
<tree>-ish at the end for consistency.

Most of our documentation is in a single directory, so using
linkgit:git-config[1] just generates a relative link in the
same directory. However, this is not the case with the API
documentation in technical/*, which need to refer to
git-config from the parent directory.
We can fix this by passing a special prefix attribute when building
in a subdirectory, and respecting that prefix in our linkgit
definitions.
We only have to modify the html linkgit definition. For
manpages, we can ignore this for two reasons:
1. we do not generate actual links to the file in
manpages, but instead just give the name and section of
the linked manpage
2. we do not currently build manpages for subdirectories,
only html

The API documentation targets two kinds of developers: those using the
C API, and those writing remote-helpers. The document was not clear
about which part was useful to which category, and for example, the C API
could be mistakenly thought as an API for writting remote helpers.

When getpwuid fails, we give a cute but cryptic message.
While it makes sense if you know that getpwuid or identity
functions are being called, this code is triggered behind
the scenes by quite a few git commands these days (e.g.,
receive-pack on a remote server might use it for a reflog;
the current message is hard to distinguish from an
authentication error). Let's switch to something that gives
a little more context.
While we're at it, we can factor out all of the
cut-and-pastes of the "you don't exist" message into a
wrapper function. Rather than provide xgetpwuid, let's make
it even more specific to just getting the passwd entry for
the current uid. That's the only way we use getpwuid anyway,
and it lets us make an even more specific error message.
The current message also fails to mention errno. While the
usual cause for getpwuid failing is that the user does not
exist, mentioning errno makes it easier to diagnose these
problems. Note that POSIX specifies that errno remain
untouched if the passwd entry does not exist (but will be
set on actual errors), whereas some systems will return
ENOENT or similar for a missing entry. We handle both cases
in our wrapper.
