Hi gitsters,

Here are some small documentation patches that have been sitting in my tree for a while. Most important is the first one, which makes it easier to find the appropriate options for building documentation from source on a new machine.

Perhaps they could be of some use.  I look forward to your thoughts.
Jonathan Nieder (9):
  Describe DOCBOOK_XSL_172, ASCIIDOC_NO_ROFF options in Makefile
  Documentation: git fmt-merge-message is not a script
  Documentation: fix singular/plural mismatch
  Documentation: say "the same" instead of "equal"
  Documentation: clone: clarify discussion of initial branch
  Documentation: branch: update --merged description
  Documentation: clarify branch creation
  Documentation: clarify "working tree" definition
  racy-git.txt: explain nsec problem in more detail
