The preceding two commits introduced special handling of the sideband
channel to neutralize ANSI escape sequences before sending the payload
to the terminal, and `sideband.allowControlCharacters` to override that
behavior.
However, some `pre-receive` hooks that are actively used in practice
want to color their messages and therefore rely on the fact that Git
passes them through to the terminal.
In contrast to other ANSI escape sequences, it is highly unlikely that
coloring sequences can be essential tools in attack vectors that mislead
Git users e.g. by hiding crucial information.
Therefore we can have both: Continue to allow ANSI coloring sequences to
be passed to the terminal, and neutralize all other ANSI escape
sequences.

The preceding commit fixed the vulnerability whereas sideband messages
(that are under the control of the remote server) could contain ANSI
escape sequences that would be sent to the terminal verbatim.
However, this fix may not be desirable under all circumstances, e.g.
when remote servers deliberately add coloring to their messages to
increase their urgency.
To help with those use cases, give users a way to opt-out of the
protections: `sideband.allowControlCharacters`.

47beb37b (shortlog: match commit trailers with --group, 2020-09-27)
added the `trailer` bullet point with three paragraphs.[1] Later,
3dc95e09 (shortlog: support arbitrary commit format `--group`s,
2022-10-24) put the single-paragraph bullet point about `format` right
after the first paragraph about `trailer`. That meant that the second
and third paragraphs for `trailer` got moved to `format`.
Move the two paragraphs back to `trailer`. We now also need one blank
line before the final bullet point so that it does not get joined with
the second bullet point.
† 1: Technically the bullet list formatting was immediately fixed to
include all three paragraphs in 63d24fa0 (shortlog: allow multiple
groups to be specified, 2020-09-27)

The help text and the documentation for the "--expire" option of

* sb/doc-worktree-prune-expire-improvement:

"git replay" is taught to drop commits that become empty (not the
ones that are empty in the original).

replay: support updating detached HEAD

builtin/replay: move core logic into "libgit.a"
builtin/replay: extract core logic to replay revisions
The --expire option for "git worktree list" and "git worktree prune"
only affects worktrees whose working directory path no longer exists.
The help text did not make this clear, and the documentation
inconsistently used "unused" for prune but "missing" for list.
Update the help text and documentation to consistently describe these
as "missing worktrees", and use "prune" instead of "expire" when
describing the effect on missing worktrees since the terminology is
clearer.
While at it, expand the description of the "prune" subcommand itself
to better explain what it does and when to use it, as suggested by
Junio.

By default git-last-modified(1) doesn't recurse into subtrees. So when
the pathspec contained a path in a subtree, the command would only print
the commit information about the parent tree of the path, like:
$ git last-modified -- path/file
aaa0aab1bbb2bcc3ccc4ddd5dde6eee7eff8fff9 path
Change the default behavior to give commit information about the exact
path instead:
$ git last-modified -- path/file
aaa0aab1bbb2bcc3ccc4ddd5dde6eee7eff8fff9 path/file
To achieve this, the default max-depth is changed to 0 and recursive is
always enabled.
The handling of option '-r' is modified to disable a max-depth,
resulting in the behavior of this option to remain unchanged.
No existing tests were modified, because there didn't exist any tests
covering the example above. But more tests are added to cover this now.

Option --max-depth is supported by git-last-modified(1), because it was
added to the diff machinery in a1dfa5448d (diff: teach tree-diff a
max-depth parameter, 2025-08-07).
This option is useful for everyday use of the git-last-modified(1)
command, so document it's existence in the man page.
To have it also appear in the help output of `git last-modified -h`,
move the handling of '--max-depth' to parse_options() in
builtin/last-modified.c itself. This prepares for the change in default
behavior in the next commit.

The command git-last-modified(1) already recognizes the option '-z', and
similar to many other commands this will make the output NUL-terminated
instead of using newlines. Although, this option is missing from the
documentation, so add it.
In addition to that, to have '-z' also appear in the help output of `git
last-modified -h`, move the handling of '-z' to parse_options() in
builtin/last-modified.c itself.
Before, the parsing of option '-z' was done by diff_opt_parse(), which
is called by setup_revisions(). That would fill in `struct
diff_options::line_termination`, but that field was not used by the diff
machinery itself. Thus it makes more sense to have the handling of that
option completely in builtin/last-modified.c.

The rev-list options in our manuals are quite long; git-replay's manual
is no exception. Since replay doesn't use the formatting options at all
(it has its own output format), drop them.
This is the first time we have needed compound tests [1] for if[n]def in
our documentation:
git grep '^ifn\?def::' Documentation | grep '[,+]'
[1]: https://docs.asciidoctor.org/asciidoc/latest/directives/ifdef-ifndef/
For both ifdef and ifndef, the "," takes on the intuitive meaning:
- ifdef: if any of the listed attributes are set…
- ifndef: unless any of the listed attributes are set
(Use "+" for "all".)
