git-fetch-pack uses URLs like git-fetch

"git fetch-pack" allows [<host>:]<directory> to point out the source
repository.
Use the term <repository>, which is already used in "git fetch" or "git pull"
to describe URLs supported by Git.

Documentation/git-log: update "--log-size" description

"--log-size" was added in commit 9fa3465, and the commit message
contained a satisfactory explanation; however, the man page entry
for it did not describe the actual output format, what the output
meant and what the option was meant to be used for.

State correct usage of literal examples in man pages in the coding standards

The man pages contain inconsistent usage of backticks vs. single quotes
around options, commands, etc. that are in paragraphs. This commit states
that backticks should always be used around literal examples.

This commit states that "--" and friends should not be escaped
(e.g. use `--pretty=oneline` instead of `\--pretty=oneline`).

This commit also states correct usage for typesetting command usage
examples with inline substitutions.

Documentation/rev-list-options.txt: fix mark-up

Some the labeled list entries have a blank line between the label
and the body text, and some don't.  Use the latter style for
consistency; incidentally, syntax highlighting in Vim works better
if there is no blank line there.

Typeset literal options, commands, and path names in monospace.
When using `literal string` mark-up to do so, there is no need to
escape AsciiDoc special characters with backslashes, so make sure we
don't do so.

Replace some double quotes with proper AsciiDoc quotes
(e.g. ``foo'').

submodule: do not copy unknown update mode from .gitmodules

When submodule.$name.update is given as hint from the upstream in
the .gitmodules file, we used to blindly copy it to .git/config,
unless there already is a value defined for the submodule.

However, there is no reason to expect that the update mode hinted by
the upstream is available in the version of Git the user is using,
and a really custom "!cmd" prepared by an upstream person running on
Linux may not even be available to a user on Windows.  It is simply
irresponsible to copy the setting blindly and to attempt to use it
during a later "submodule update" without validating it first.

Just show the suggested value to the diagnostic output, and set the
value to 'none' in the configuration, if it is not one of the ones
that are known to be supported by this version of Git.
