* Add documentation for the 'bidi-import' capability of remote-helpersFlorian Achleitner2012-10-07

* Add argv_array_detach and argv_array_free_detachedFlorian Achleitner2012-10-07
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | Allow detaching of ownership of the argv_array's contents and add a function to free those detached argv_arrays later. This makes it possible to use argv_array efficiently with the exiting struct child_process which only contains a member char **argv. Add to documentation.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Commit e30b2feb1b (Jun 24 2012, add 'git credential' plumbing command) forgot to add git-credential to command-list.txt, hence the command was not appearing in the documentation, making it hard for users to discover it. While we're there, capitalize the description line for git-crendential for consistency with other commands.
