The exit status code from "git config" was way overspecified while

In the next major release, we will switch "git push [$there]" that

integrate with that remote branch (all other cases will error out).

A minor documentation update.

* mv/pull-r-for-rebase:
  man: git pull -r is a short for --rebase

We did not document that many commands take unique prefix
abbreviations of long options (e.g. "--option" may be the only flag
that the command accepts that begin with "--opt", in which case you
can give "--opt") anywhere easy to find for new people.

* jc/maint-abbrev-option-cli:
  gitcli: describe abbreviation of long options

It was unclear what "--topo-order" was really about in the
documentation. It is not just about "children before parent", but
also about "don't mix lineages".

  rev-list docs: clarify --topo-order description

In earlier days, "imitate the style in the neibouring code" was
sufficient to keep the coherent style, but over time some parts of
the codebase have drifted enough to make it ineffective.

  Documentation/CodingGuidelines: spell out more shell guidelines

Our documentation used to assume having files in .git/refs/*
directories was the only to have branches and tags, but that is not
true for quite some time.
