"**" means bold in ASCIIDOC, so we need to escape it.

Merge branch 'jc/revision-range-unpeel' into maint

"git rev-list --objects ^v1.0^ v1.0" gave v1.0 tag itself in the
output, but "git rev-list --objects v1.0^..v1.0" did not.

* jc/revision-range-unpeel:
  revision: do not peel tags used in range notation
Merge branch 'jk/split-broken-ident' into maint

The fall-back parsing of commit objects with broken author or
committer lines were less robust than ideal in picking up the
timestamps.

  split_ident: parse timestamp from end of line
Merge branch 'sg/prompt-svn-remote-fix' into maint

Bash prompting code to deal with an SVN remote as an upstream

Merge branch 'mm/checkout-auto-track-fix' into maint

"git checkout topic", when there is not yet a local "topic" branch
but there is a unique remote-tracking branch for a remote "topic"
branch, pretended as if "git checkout -t -b topic remote/$r/topic"
(for that unique remote $r) was run. This hack however was not
implemented for "git checkout topic --".

* mm/checkout-auto-track-fix:
  checkout: proper error message on 'git checkout foo bar --'
  checkout: allow dwim for branch creation for "git checkout $branch --"
Merge branch 'hn/log-graph-color-octopus' into maint

Coloring around octopus merges in "log --graph" output was screwy.

We did not generate HTML version of documentation to "git subtree"

Merge branch 'vd/doc-unpack-objects' into maint

The synopsis section of "git unpack-objects" documentation has been
clarified a bit.

  Documentation: restore a space in unpack-objects usage
Merge branch 'sc/doc-howto-dumb-http' into maint

An ancient How-To on serving Git repositories on an HTTP server

modern way.

* sc/doc-howto-dumb-http:
