In git-format-patch, notes can be appended with the `--notes` option.
However, this must be specified by the user on an
invocation-by-invocation basis. If a user is not careful, it's possible
that they may forget to include it and generate a patch series without
notes.
Teach git-format-patch the `format.notes` config option. Its value is a
notes ref that will be automatically appended. The special value of
"standard" can be used to specify the standard notes. This option is
overridable with the `--no-notes` option in case a user wishes not to
append notes.

Internally, git-format-patch uses the `handle_revision_opt` parser. The
parser handles the `--no-notes` option to negate an earlier `--notes`
option, but it isn't documented. Document this option so that users are
aware of it.

"make check-docs", "git help -a", etc. did not account for cases
where a particular build may deliberately omit some subcommands,
which has been corrected.

The list of conflicted paths shown in the editor while concluding a

"git merge-recursive" backend recently learned a new heuristics to
infer file movement based on how other files in the same directory
moved. As this is inherently less robust heuristics than the one
based on the content similarity of the file itself (rather than
based on what its neighbours are doing), it sometimes gives an
outcome unexpected by the end users. This has been toned down to
leave the renamed paths in higher/conflicted stages in the index so
that the user can examine and confirm the result.
* en/merge-directory-renames:
merge-recursive: switch directory rename detection default
merge-recursive: give callers of handle_content_merge() access to contents
merge-recursive: track information associated with directory renames

merge-recursive: use 'ci' for rename_conflict_info variable name
merge-recursive: rename locals 'o' and 'a' to 'obuf' and 'abuf'
merge-recursive: rename diff_filespec 'one' to 'o'
merge-recursive: rename merge_options argument from 'o' to 'opt'
Use 'unsigned short' for mode, like diff_filespec does

When building with certain build options, some commands are excluded
from the build. For example, `git-credential-cache` is skipped when
building with `NO_UNIX_SOCKETS`.
Let's not build or package documentation for those excluded commands.
This issue was pointed out rightfully when running `make check-docs` on
Windows, where we do not yet have Unix sockets, and therefore the
`credential-cache` command is excluded (yet its documentation was built
and shipped).
Note: building the documentation via `make -C Documentation` leaves the
build system with no way to determine which commands have been
excluded. If called thusly, we gracefully fail to exclude their
documentation. Only when building the documentation via the top-level
Makefile will it get excluded properly, or after building
`Documentation/GIT-EXCLUDED-PROGRAMS` manually.

This change allows git-merge messages to be cleaned up with the
commit.cleanup configuration or --cleanup option, just like how
git-commit does it.
We also give git-pull the option of --cleanup so that it can also take
advantage of this change.
Finally, add testing to ensure that messages are properly cleaned up.
Note that some newlines that were added to the commit message were
removed so that if a file were read via -F, it would be copied
faithfully.

Commit 5e3548ef16 ("fetch: send server options when using protocol v2",
2018-04-24) taught "fetch" the ability to send server options when using
protocol v2, but not "clone". This ability is triggered by "-o" or
"--server-option".
Teach "clone" the same ability, except that because "clone" already
has "-o" for another parameter, teach "clone" only to receive
"--server-option".
Explain in the documentation, both for clone and for fetch, that server
handling of server options are server-specific. This is similar to
receive-pack's handling of push options - currently, they are just sent
to hooks to interpret as they see fit.

Robert Dailey reported confusion on the mailing list about a nested
tag which was most likely created by mistake. Jeff King noted that
this isn't a very common case and creating a tag-to-a-tag can be a
user-error.
Suggest that it may be a mistake with an advice message when
creating such a tag. Those who do want to create a tag that point
at another tag regularly can turn it off with the usual advice
mechanism.

The {apostrophe} was needed at the time of a521845800 ("Documentation:
remove stray backslash in show-branch discussion", 2010-08-20). All
other uses of {apostrophe} were removed in 6cf378f0cb ("docs: stop using
asciidoc no-inline-literal", 2012-04-26).
Unfortunately, the {apostrophe} is rendered literally with Asciidoctor
(at least with 1.5.5-2.0.3). Avoid this by using single-quotes.
Escaping the leading single-quote allows the content to render properly
in AsciiDoc and Asciidoctor.

The second paragraph in the CONFIGURATION section intends to emphasize
the word 'must' with bold type. It does so by writing it as *must*, and
this works fine with AsciiDoc. It usually works great with Asciidoctor,
too, but in this particular instance, we have another "*" earlier in the
paragraph. We do escape it, and it is rendered literally just like we
want it to, but Asciidoctor then ends up tripping on the second (or
third) of the asterisks in this paragraph.
Since that asterisk is (part of) a literal example, we can set it in
monospace, by giving it as `*`. Adjust the whole paragraph in this way.
There's lots more monospacing to be done in this document, but since our
main motivation is addressing AsciiDoc/Asciidoctor discrepancies like
this one, let's just convert this one paragraph.
