Andreas Ericsson 72c69ebc03 git commit: Reformat output somewhat
Previously, we used to print something along the lines of

	Created commit abc9056 on master: Snib the sprock

but that output was sometimes confusing, as many projects use
the "subsystem: message" style of commit subjects (just like
this commit message does). When such improvements are done on
topic-branches, it's not uncommon to name the topic-branch the
same as the subsystem, leading to output like this:

	Created commit abc9056 on i386: i386: Snib the sprock

which doesn't look very nice and can be highly confusing.
This patch alters the format so that the noise-word "commit"
is dropped except when it makes the output read better and
the commit subject is put inside parentheses. We also
emphasize the detached case so that users do not overlook it
in case the commit subject is long enough to extend to the
next line. The end result looks thusly:

	normal case
	Created abc9056 (i386: Snib the sprock) on i386

	detached head
	Created DETACHED commit abc9056 (i386: Snib the sprock)

While we're at it, we rename "initial commit" to "root-commit"
to align it with the argument to 'git log', producing this:

	initial commit
	Created root-commit abc9056 (i386: Snib the sprock) on i386

Documentation/gittutorial-2.txt is updated accordingly so that
new users recognize what they're looking at.

	GIT - the stupid content tracker

////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////

"git" can mean anything, depending on your mood.

 - random three-letter combination that is pronounceable, and not
   actually used by any common UNIX command.  The fact that it is a
   mispronunciation of "get" may or may not be relevant.
 - stupid. contemptible and despicable. simple. Take your pick from the
   dictionary of slang.
 - "global information tracker": you're in a good mood, and it actually
   works for you. Angels sing, and a light suddenly fills the room.
 - "goddamn idiotic truckload of sh*t": when it breaks

Git is a fast, scalable, distributed revision control system with an
unusually rich command set that provides both high-level operations
and full access to internals.

Git is an Open Source project covered by the GNU General Public License.
It was originally written by Linus Torvalds with help of a group of
hackers around the net. It is currently maintained by Junio C Hamano.

Please read the file INSTALL for installation instructions.
See Documentation/tutorial.txt to get started, then see
Documentation/everyday.txt for a useful minimum set of commands,
and "man git-commandname" for documentation of each command.
CVS users may also want to read Documentation/cvs-migration.txt.

Many Git online resources are accessible from http://git.or.cz/
including full documentation and Git related tools.

The user discussion and development of Git take place on the Git
mailing list -- everyone is welcome to post bug reports, feature
requests, comments and patches to git@vger.kernel.org. To subscribe
to the list, send an email with just "subscribe git" in the body to
majordomo@vger.kernel.org. The mailing list archives are available at
http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=git and other archival sites.

The messages titled "A note from the maintainer", "What's in
git.git (stable)" and "What's cooking in git.git (topics)" and
the discussion following them on the mailing list give a good
reference for project status, development direction and
remaining tasks.
