docs: add CONFIGURATION sections that fuzzy map to built-ins

2022-09-07T16:46:07Z

Add a CONFIGURATION section to the documentation of various built-ins, for those cases where the relevant config/NAME.txt doesn't map only to one git-NAME.txt. In particular: * config/blame.txt: used by git-{blame,annotate}.txt. Since the git-annotate(1) documentation refers to git-blame(1) don't add a "CONFIGURATION" section to git-annotate(1), only to git-blame(1). * config/checkout.txt: maps to both git-checkout.txt and git-switch.txt (but nothing else). * config/init.txt: should be included in git-init(1) and git-clone(1). * config/column.txt: We should ideally mention the relevant subset of this in git-{branch,clean,status,tag}.txt, but let's punt on it for now. We will when we eventually split these sort of files into e.g. config/column.txt and config/column/{branch,clean,status,tag}.txt, with the former including the latter set. Things that are being left out, and why: * config/{remote,remotes,credential}.txt: Configuration that affects how we talk to remote repositories is harder to untangle. We'll need to include some of this in git-{fetch,remote,push,ls-remote}.txt etc., but some of those only use a small subset of these options. Let's leave this for now.

init doc: --shared=0xxx does not give umask but perm bits

The description that 0640 makes sure that the group members can read the repository is correct, but calling that octal number a is wrong. Let's call it , as the value is used to set the permission bits. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano

The previous explanation was mixing the format with the identity of the field. Signed-off-by: Jean-Noël Avila Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano

init: document `init.defaultBranch` better

Our documentation does not mention any future plan to change 'master' to other value. It is a good idea to document this, though. Initial-patch-by: Junio C Hamano Signed-off-by: Johannes Schindelin Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano
