eabbc99a21 fix diff-tree --stdin documentation
Long time ago, the feature of "diff-tree --stdin" to take a commit and its
parents on one line was broken, and did not support the common:

    git rev-list --parents $commits... -- $paths... |
    git diff-tree --stdin -v -p

usage pattern by Porcelains properly.  For diff-tree to talk sensibly
about commits, it needs to see commits, not just trees; the code was fixed
to take list of commits on the standard input in 1.2.0.

However we left the documentation stale for a long time, until Karl
Hasselström finally noticed it very recently.

69c231f473 Make git-add -i accept ranges like 7-
git-add -i ranges expect number-number. But for the supremely lazy, typing in
that second number when selecting "from patch 7 to the end" is wasted effort.
So treat an empty second number in a range as "until the last item".

Since version 1.5.6 "git bisect" doesn't use a "bisect" branch any
more, but the user manual had not been updated to reflect this.

So this patch does that and while at it also adds a few words about
"git bisect skip" and points user to the "git bisect" man page for
more information.

ae7c5dcef9 Support copy and rename detection in fast-export.
Although it does not matter for Git itself, tools that
export to systems that explicitly track copies and
renames can benefit from such information.

This patch makes fast-export output correct action

1ce4790bf5 Make use of stat.ctime configurable
A new configuration variable 'core.trustctime' is introduced to
allow ignoring st_ctime information when checking if paths
in the working tree has changed, because there are situations where
it produces too much false positives.  Like when file system crawlers
keep changing it when scanning and using the ctime for marking scanned
files.

The default is to notice ctime changes.

a2d07d80ec document that git-tag can tag more than heads
After looking the git-tag manpage, someone on #git wondered how
to tag a commit that is not a branch head.  This patch changes
the synopsis to say "<commit> | <object>" instead of "<head>" to
address his question.

Samuel Bronson had the idea of putting "<commit> | <object>"
for "<object>" because most tags point to commits (and for the
rest of the manpage, all tags point to commits).

c455c87c5c Rename path_list to string_list
The name path_list was correct for the first usage of that data structure,
but it really is a general-purpose string list.

$ perl -i -pe 's/path-list/string-list/g' $(git grep -l path-list)
$ perl -i -pe 's/path_list/string_list/g' $(git grep -l path_list)
$ git mv path-list.h string-list.h
$ git mv path-list.c string-list.c
$ perl -i -pe 's/has_path/has_string/g' $(git grep -l has_path)
$ perl -i -pe 's/path/string/g' string-list.[ch]
$ git mv Documentation/technical/api-path-list.txt \
	Documentation/technical/api-string-list.txt
$ perl -i -pe 's/strdup_paths/strdup_strings/g' $(git grep -l strdup_paths)

... and then fix all users of string-list to access the member "string"
instead of "path".

Documentation/technical/api-string-list.txt needed some rewrapping, too.
