"git log --graph --no-walk A B..." is a otcnflicting request that

discrete points. Forbid the combination.

"git rev-list --bisect --first-parent" does not work (yet) and can
even cause SEGV; forbid it. "git log --bisect --first-parent"
would not be useful until "git bisect --first-parent" materializes,

rev-list --bisect is used by git bisect, but never together with
--first-parent. Because rev-list --bisect together with --first-parent
is not handled currently, and even leads to segfaults, refuse to use
both options together.
Because this is not supported, it makes little sense to use git log
--bisect --first parent either, because refs/heads/bad is not limited to
the first parent chain.

If both USE_CURL_FOR_IMAP_SEND and NO_OPENSSL are defined do
not force the user to add --curl to get a working git imap-send
command.
Instead automatically select --curl and warn and ignore the

git commit and git status in long format show the diff between HEAD
and the index when given -v. This allows previewing a commit to be made.
They also list tracked files with unstaged changes, but without a diff.
Introduce '-v -v' which shows the diff between the index and the
worktree in addition to the HEAD index diff. This allows a review of unstaged
changes which might be missing from the commit.
In the case of '-v -v', additonal header lines

If we are expiring reflog entries for a symbolic reference, then how
should --updateref be handled if the newest reflog entry is expired?
Option 1: Update the referred-to reference. (This is what the current
code does.) This doesn't make sense, because the referred-to reference
has its own reflog, which hasn't been rewritten.
Option 2: Update the symbolic reference itself (as in, REF_NODEREF).
This would convert the symbolic reference into a non-symbolic
reference (e.g., detaching HEAD), which is surely not what a user
would expect.
Option 3: Error out. This is plausible, but it would make the
following usage impossible:
git reflog expire ... --updateref --all
Option 4: Ignore --updateref for symbolic references.
We choose to implement option 4.
Note: another problem in this code will be fixed in a moment.

Revamp the "git reflog" usage documentation in the manpage and the
command help to match the current reality and improve its clarity:
* Add documentation for some options that had been left out.
* Group the subcommands and options more logically and move more
common subcommands/options higher.
* Improve some explanations.

In "git log --decorate", you would see the commit header like this:
commit ... (HEAD, jc/decorate-leaky-separator-color)
where "commit ... (" is painted in color.diff.commit, "HEAD" in
color.decorate.head, ", " in color.diff.commit, the branch name in
color.decorate.branch and then closing ")" in color.diff.commit.
If you wanted to paint the HEAD and local branch name in the same
color as the body text (perhaps because cyan and green are too faint
on a black-on-white terminal to be readable), you would not want to
have to say
[color "decorate"]
head = black
branch = black
because that you would not be able to reuse same configuration on a
white-on-black terminal. You would naively expect
[color "decorate"]
head = normal
branch = normal
to work, but unfortunately it does not. It paints the string "HEAD"
and the branch name in the same color as the opening parenthesis or
comma between the decoration elements. This is because the code
forgets to reset the color after printing the "prefix" in its own
color.
It theoretically is possible that some people were expecting and
relying on that the attribute set as the "diff.commit" color, which
is used to draw these opening parenthesis and inter-item comma, is
inherited by the drawing of branch names, but it is not how the
coloring works everywhere else.

The various types of values set to the configuration variables
deserve more than a brief footnote mention in the syntax section,
and it will be more so after the later steps of this clean up
effort.

A line can be continued via a backquote-LF and can be chomped at a
comment character. But that is not specific to string-typed values.
It is common to all, just like unquoted leading and trailing
whitespaces are stripped and inter-word spacing are retained.
Move the description around and desribe these structural rules
first, then introduce the double-quote facility as a way to override
them, and finally mention various types of values.
Note that these structural rules only apply to the value part of the
configuration file. E.g.
[aSection] \
name \
= value
does not work, because the rules kick in only after seeing "name =".
Both the original and the updated text are phrased in an awkward way
by singling out the "value" part of the line because of this.
