Dan McGee 5162e69732 Documentation: rename gitlink macro to linkgit
Between AsciiDoc 8.2.2 and 8.2.3, the following change was made to the stock
Asciidoc configuration:

@@ -149,7 +153,10 @@
 # Inline macros.
 # Backslash prefix required for escape processing.
 # (?s) re flag for line spanning.
-(?su)[\\]?(?P<name>\w(\w|-)*?):(?P<target>\S*?)(\[(?P<attrlist>.*?)\])=
+
+# Explicit so they can be nested.
+(?su)[\\]?(?P<name>(http|https|ftp|file|mailto|callto|image|link)):(?P<target>\S*?)(\[(?P<attrlist>.*?)\])=
+
 # Anchor: [[[id]]]. Bibliographic anchor.
 (?su)[\\]?\[\[\[(?P<attrlist>[\w][\w-]*?)\]\]\]=anchor3
 # Anchor: [[id,xreflabel]]

This default regex now matches explicit values, and unfortunately in this
case gitlink was being matched by just 'link', causing the wrong inline
macro template to be applied. By renaming the macro, we can avoid being
matched by the wrong regex.

NAME
----
git-remote - manage set of tracked repositories
SYNOPSIS
--------
[verse]
'git-remote'
'git-remote' add [-t <branch>] [-m <branch>] [-f] [--mirror] <name> <url>
'git-remote' rm <name>
'git-remote' show <name>
'git-remote' prune <name>
'git-remote' update [group]
DESCRIPTION
-----------
Manage the set of repositories ("remotes") whose branches you track.
COMMANDS
--------
With no arguments, shows a list of existing remotes. Several
subcommands are available to perform operations on the remotes.
'add'::
Adds a remote named <name> for the repository at
<url>. The command `git fetch <name>` can then be used to create and
update remote-tracking branches <name>/<branch>.
+
With `-f` option, `git fetch <name>` is run immediately after
the remote information is set up.
+
With `-t <branch>` option, instead of the default glob
refspec for the remote to track all branches under
`$GIT_DIR/remotes/<name>/`, a refspec to track only `<branch>`
is created. You can give more than one `-t <branch>` to track
multiple branches without grabbing all branches.
+
With `-m <master>` option, `$GIT_DIR/remotes/<name>/HEAD` is set
up to point at remote's `<master>` branch instead of whatever
branch the `HEAD` at the remote repository actually points at.
+
In mirror mode, enabled with `--mirror`, the refs will not be stored
in the 'refs/remotes/' namespace, but in 'refs/heads/'. This option
only makes sense in bare repositories.
'rm'::
Remove the remote named <name>. All remote tracking branches and
configuration settings for the remote are removed.
'show'::
Gives some information about the remote <name>.
+
With `-n` option, the remote heads are not queried first with
`git ls-remote <name>`; cached information is used instead.
'prune'::
Deletes all stale tracking branches under <name>.
These stale branches have already been removed from the remote repository
referenced by <name>, but are still locally available in
"remotes/<name>".
+
With `-n` option, the remote heads are not confirmed first with `git
ls-remote <name>`; cached information is used instead. Use with
caution.
'update'::
Fetch updates for a named set of remotes in the repository as defined by
remotes.<group>. If a named group is not specified on the command line,
the configuration parameter remotes.default will get used; if
remotes.default is not defined, all remotes which do not have the
configuration parameter remote.<name>.skipDefaultUpdate set to true will
be updated. (See linkgit:git-config[1]).
DISCUSSION
----------
The remote configuration is achieved using the `remote.origin.url` and
`remote.origin.fetch` configuration variables. (See
linkgit:git-config[1]).
Examples
--------
* Add a new remote, fetch, and check out a branch from it
+
------------
$ git remote
origin
$ git branch -r
origin/master
$ git remote add linux-nfs git://linux-nfs.org/pub/linux/nfs-2.6.git
$ git remote
linux-nfs
origin
$ git fetch
* refs/remotes/linux-nfs/master: storing branch 'master' ...
commit: bf81b46
$ git branch -r
origin/master
linux-nfs/master
$ git checkout -b nfs linux-nfs/master
...
------------
* Imitate 'git clone' but track only selected branches
+
------------
$ mkdir project.git
$ cd project.git
$ git init
$ git remote add -f -t master -m master origin git://example.com/git.git/
$ git merge origin
