[PATCHv2 00/10] Cleaning up --help-all inconsistencies

v2 incorporates the changes as discussed so far. It comes with three bonus patches which enforce the use of lowercase <identifiers> (as per CodingGuidelines) in command messages (usage). Besides the guidelines, this is also the prevailing style in code. Documentation is a different issue.

patches 1,3,5 are unchanged wrt v1.

The last 3 are divided according to the grep expressions which I used to identify candidates.

Michael J Gruber (10):
  commit,tag: use same wording for -F
  commit,status: describe --porcelain just like push
  clone,init: describe --template using the same wording
  commit,merge,tag: describe -m likewise
  add: describe --patch like checkout, reset
  commit,status: describe -u likewise
  git-tag.txt: list all modes in the description
  Make <identifier> lowercase as per CodingGuidelines
  Make <identifier> lowercase as per CodingGuidelines
  Make <identifier> lowercase as per CodingGuidelines
