Both asciidoc and asciidoctor issue warnings about 'list item index:
expected n got n-1' for n=1->7 on lines 928, 931, 951, 974, 980, 1033
and 1049. In asciidoc, numbered lists must start at one, whereas this
file has a list starting at zero. Also, asciidoc and asciidoctor warn
about 'section title out of sequence: expected level 1, got level 2'
on line 17. (asciidoc only complains about the first instance of this,
while asciidoctor complains about them all, on lines 95, 258, 303, 316,
545, 612, 752, 824, 895, 923 and 1053). These warnings stem from the
section titles not being correctly nested within a document/chapter
title.
In order to address the first set of warnings, simply renumber the list
from one to seven, rather than zero to six. Fortunately, this does not
require altering additional text, since the enumeration of 'Known Bugs'
is not referred to anywhere else in the document.
In order to address the second set of warnings, change the section title
syntax from '=== title ===' to '== title ==', effectively reducing the
nesting level of the title by one. Also, some apparent (sub-)titles are
not marked up with sub-title syntax, so add some '=== ' prefix(s) to the
relevant headings.
In addition to the warnings, address some other formatting issues:
- the use of heavily nested unordered lists is not reflected in the
output (making the file totally unreadable) because each level of
nesting requires a different syntax. (i.e. replace '*' with '**'
for the second level, '*' with '***' for the third level, etc.)
- make use of literal blocks and manual indentation to get asciidoc
and asciidoctor to display even remotely similar output.
- make use of labelled lists, in some places, to get a similar looking
output to the input, for both asciidoc and asciidoctor.
- replace the trailing space in: `git grep ${SEARCH_TERM} OLDREV `
otherwise the entire line in which that appears is removed from
the output.

"git whatchanged" that is longer to type than "git log --raw"
which is its modern rough equivalent has outlived its usefulness
more than 10 years ago. Plan to deprecate and remove it.
* jc/you-still-use-whatchanged:
whatschanged: list it in BreakingChanges document
whatchanged: remove when built with WITH_BREAKING_CHANGES
whatchanged: require --i-still-use-this
tests: prepare for a world without whatchanged
doc: prepare for a world without whatchanged
you-still-use-that??: help deprecating commands for removal
As we made "git whatchanged" require "--i-still-use-this" and asked
the users to report if they still want to use it, the logical next
step is to allow us build Git without "whatchanged" to prepare for
its eventual removal.
If we were to follow the pattern established in 8ccc75c2 (remote:
announce removal of "branches/" and "remotes/", 2025-01-22), we can
do this together with the documentation update to officially list
that the command will be removed in the BreakingChanges document,
but let's just keep the changes separate just in case we want to
proceed a bit slower.

As a wise man once told me, "Deleted code is debugged code!" So, move
the functions that are shared between merge-recursive and merge-ort from
the former to the latter, and then debug the remainder of
merge-recursive.[ch].
Joking aside, merge-ort was always intended to replace merge-recursive.
It has numerous advantages over merge-recursive (operates much faster,
can operate without a worktree or index, and fixes a number of known
bugs and suboptimal merges). Since we have now replaced all callers of
merge-recursive with equivalent functions from merge-ort, move the
shared functions from the former to the latter, and delete the remainder
of merge-recursive.[ch].

We presently use the ".txt" extension for our AsciiDoc files. While not
wrong, most editors do not associate this extension with AsciiDoc,
meaning that contributors don't get automatic editor functionality that
could be useful, such as syntax highlighting and prose linting.
It is much more common to use the ".adoc" extension for AsciiDoc files,
since this helps editors automatically detect files and also allows
various forges to provide rich (HTML-like) rendering. Let's do that
here, renaming all of the files and updating the includes where
relevant. Adjust the various build scripts and makefiles to use the new
extension as well.
Note that this should not result in any user-visible changes to the
documentation.
