[PATCH v3 3/7] use 'tree-ish' instead of 'treeish'

From
RHRichard Hansen <rhansen@bbn.com>
Date

Message-ID

<1378321474-7125-1-git-send-email-rhansen@bbn.com>

Replace 'treeish' in documentation and comments with 'tree-ish' to match gitglossary(7).

The only remaining instances of 'treeish' are:
  * variable, function, and macro names
  * "(also treeish)" in the definition of tree-ish in gitglossary(7)
