+NAME
+----
+git-am - Apply a series of patches in a mailbox
+
+
+SYNOPSIS
+--------
+'git-am' [--signoff] [--dotest=<dir>] [--utf8] [--3way] <mbox>...
+'git-am' [--skip]
+
+DESCRIPTION
+-----------
+Splits mail messages in a mailbox into commit log message,
+authorship information and patches, and applies them to the
+current branch.
+
+OPTIONS
+-------
+--signoff::
+	Add `Signed-off-by:` line to the commit message, using
+	the committer identity of yourself.
+
+--dotest=<dir>::
+	Instead of `.dotest` directory, use <dir> as a working
+	area to store extracted patches.
+
+--utf8, --keep::
+	Pass `--utf8` and `--keep` flags to `git-mailinfo` (see
+	gitlink:git-mailinfo[1]).
+
+--3way::
+	When the patch does not apply cleanly, fall back on
+	3-way merge, if the patch records the identity of blobs
+	it is supposed to apply to, and we have those blobs
+	locally.
+
+--skip::
+	Skip the current patch.  This is only meaningful when
+	restarting an aborted patch.
+
+--interactive::
+	Run interactively, just like git-applymbox.
+
+
+DISCUSSION
+----------
+
+When initially invoking it, you give it names of the mailboxes
+to crunch.  Upon seeing the first patch that does not apply, it
+aborts in the middle, just like 'git-applymbox' does.  You can
+recover from this in one of two ways:
+
+. skip the current one by re-running the command with '--skip'
+  option.
+
+. hand resolve the conflict in the working directory, run 'git
+  diff HEAD' to extract the merge result into a patch form and
+  replacing the patch part of the message in .dotest directory.
+  After doing this, run `git-reset --hard HEAD` to bring the
+  working tree to the state before half-applying the patch, then
+  re-run the command without any options.
+
+The command refuses to process new mailboxes while `.dotest`
+directory exists, so if you decide to start over from scratch,
+run `rm -f .dotest` before running the command with mailbox
+names.

+=======================
+
+NAME
+----
+git-check-ref-format - Make sure ref name is well formed.
+
+SYNOPSIS
+--------
+'git-check-ref-format' <refname>
+
+DESCRIPTION
+-----------
+Checks if a given 'refname' is acceptable, and exits non-zero if
+it is not.
+
+A reference is used in git to specify branches and tags.  A
+branch head is stored under `$GIT_DIR/refs/heads` directory, and
+a tag is stored under `$GIT_DIR/refs/tags` directory.  git
+imposes the following rules on how refs are named:
+
+. It could be named hierarchically (i.e. separated with slash
+  `/`), but each of its component cannot begin with a dot `.`;
+
+. It cannot have two consecutive dots `..` anywhere;
+
+. It cannot have ASCII control character (i.e. bytes whose
+  values are lower than \040, or \177 `DEL`), space, tilde `~`,
+  caret `{caret}`, or colon `:` anywhere;
+
+. It cannot end with a slash `/`.
+
+These rules makes it easy for shell script based tools to parse
+refnames, and also avoids ambiguities in certain refname
+expressions (see gitlink:git-rev-parse[1]).  Namely:
+
+. double-dot `..` are often used as in `ref1..ref2`, and in some
+  context this notation means `{caret}ref1 ref2` (i.e. not in
+  ref1 and in ref2).
+
+. tilde `~` and caret `{caret}` are used to introduce postfix
+  'nth parent' and 'peel onion' operation.
+
+. colon `:` is used as in `srcref:dstref` to mean "use srcref\'s
+  value and store it in dstref" in fetch and push operations.

 DESCRIPTION
 -----------
@@ -20,18 +21,35 @@ what directory to upload, and it verifies that the directory is ok.
 
 It verifies that the directory has the magic file "git-daemon-export-ok", and
 it will refuse to export any git directory that hasn't explicitly been marked
-for export this way.
+for export this way (unless the '--export-all' parameter is specified). If you
+pass some directory paths as 'git-daemon' arguments, you can further restrict
+the offers to a whitelist comprising of those.
 
 This is ideally suited for read-only updates, ie pulling from git repositories.
 
 OPTIONS
 -------
+--export-all::
+	Allow pulling from all directories that look like GIT repositories
+	(have the 'objects' subdirectory and a 'HEAD' file), even if they
+	do not have the 'git-daemon-export-ok' file.
+
 --inetd::
 	Have the server run as an inetd service.
 
 --port::
 	Listen on an alternative port.
 
+--init-timeout::
+	Timeout between the moment the connection is established and the
+	client request is received (typically a rather low value, since
+	that should be basically immediate).
+
+--timeout::
+	Timeout for specific client sub-requests. This includes the time
+	it takes for the server to process the sub-request and time spent
+	waiting for next client's request.
+
 --syslog::
 	Log to syslog instead of stderr. Note that this option does not imply
 	--verbose, thus by default only error conditions will be logged.

+DESCRIPTION
+-----------
+Reads a packed archive (.pack) from the specified file, and
+builds a pack index file (.idx) for it.  The packed archive
+together with the pack index can then be placed in the

+
+
+OPTIONS

+	Write the generated pack index into the specified
+	file.  Without this option the name of pack index
+	file is constructed from the name of packed archive
+	file by replacing .pack with .idx (and the program
+	fails if the name of packed archive does not end
+	with .pack).

+git-svnimport - Import a SVN repository into git
+
+
+SYNOPSIS
+--------
+'git-svnimport' [ -o <branch-for-HEAD> ] [ -h ] [ -v ] [ -d | -D ]
+			[ -C <GIT_repository> ] [ -i ] [ -u ] [-l limit_nr_changes]

+			[ -s start_chg ] [ -m ] [ -M regex ]
+			<SVN_repository_URL> [ <path> ]
+
+
+DESCRIPTION
+-----------
+Imports a SVN repository into git. It will either create a new
+repository, or incrementally import into an existing one.
+
+SVN access is done by the SVN:: Perl module.
+
+git-svnimport assumes that SVN repositories are organized into one
+"trunk" directory where the main development happens, "branch/FOO"
+directories for branches, and "/tags/FOO" directories for tags.
+Other subdirectories are ignored.
+
+git-svnimport creates a file ".git/svn2git", which is required for
+incremental SVN imports.
+
+OPTIONS
+-------
+-C <target-dir>::
+        The GIT repository to import to.  If the directory doesn't
+        exist, it will be created.  Default is the current directory.
+
+-s <start_rev>::
+        Start importing at this SVN change number. The  default is 1.
++
+When importing incementally, you might need to edit the .git/svn2git file.
+
+-i::
+	Import-only: don't perform a checkout after importing.  This option
+	ensures the working directory and cache remain untouched and will
+	not create them if they do not exist.
+
+-t <trunk_subdir>::
+	Name the SVN trunk. Default "trunk".
+
+-T <tag_subdir>::
+	Name the SVN subdirectory for tags. Default "tags".
+
+-b <branch_subdir>::
+	Name the SVN subdirectory for branches. Default "branches".
+
+-o <branch-for-HEAD>::
+	The 'trunk' branch from SVN is imported to the 'origin' branch within
+	the git repository. Use this option if you want to import into a
+	different branch.
+
+-m::
+	Attempt to detect merges based on the commit message. This option
+	will enable default regexes that try to capture the name source
+	branch name from the commit message.
+
+-M <regex>::
+	Attempt to detect merges based on the commit message with a custom
+	regex. It can be used with -m to also see the default regexes.
+	You must escape forward slashes.
+
+-l <max_num_changes>::
+	Limit the number of SVN changesets we pull before quitting.
+	This option is necessary because the SVN library has serious memory
+	leaks; the recommended value for nontrivial imports is 100.
+
+	git-svnimport will still exit with a zero exit code. You can check
+	the size of the file ".git/svn2git" to determine whether to call
+	the importer again.
+
+-v::
+	Verbosity: let 'svnimport' report what it is doing.
+
+-d::
+	Use direct HTTP requests if possible. The "<path>" argument is used
+	only for retrieving the SVN logs; the path to the contents is
+	included in the SVN log.
+
+-D::
+	Use direct HTTP requests if possible. The "<path>" argument is used
+	for retrieving the logs, as well as for the contents.
++
+There's no safe way to automatically find out which of these options to
+use, so you need to try both. Usually, the one that's wrong will die
+with a 40x error pretty quickly.
+
+<SVN_repository_URL>::
+	The URL of the SVN module you want to import. For local
+	repositories, use "file:///absolute/path".
++
+If you're using the "-d" or "-D" option, this is the URL of the SVN
+repository itself; it usually ends in "/svn".
+
+<SVN_repository_URL>::
+	The URL of the SVN module you want to import. For local
+	repositories, use "file:///absolute/path".
+
+<path>
+	The path to the module you want to check out.
+
+-h::
+	Print a short usage message and exit.
+
+OUTPUT
+------
+If '-v' is specified, the script reports what it is doing.
+
+Otherwise, success is indicated the Unix way, i.e. by simply exiting with
+a zero exit status.
