It was imposible to see what was staged for a first commit on a fresh
git repository. The only visible lines was fatal error messages from
git. Now diff against null tree object is shown in magit status buffer
if nothing was yet commited to the repository. The cost is 15-byte
object added to the repo, but it shuld disappear on first call to git
gc.
The usual behavior of committing all unstaged changes when there are
no staged changes makes it impossible to amend a commit just to fix
the commit message, which is a quite common thing to do.
* magit.el (magit-log-edit-commit): Do not pass "--all" to git commit
when amending.
* magit.el (magit-section-lineage, magit-section-show-level, magit-show-level,
magit-define-level-shower-1): New.
(magit-mode-map): Bind the digits and M-digits to magit-show-level-N
and magit-show-level-N-all.
* magit.texi: Document it in a new chapter for Sections.
* magit.el (magit-status): Only read the top directory with e prefix
argument or when we are not inside a Git repository.
* magit.texi, NEWS: Document the new behavior.
* magit.el (magit-show-stash): New.
(magit-visit-item): Use it and pop to the buffer for stashes.
(magit-show-item-or-scroll-up, magit-show-item-or-scroll-down): Handle
stashes.
* magit.el (magit-read-rev-range): Don't do anything special when
current-prefix-arg is set.
(magit-log): Use magit-read-rev-range instead of read-string.
(magit-log-long): Likewise.
On non-existent directiories magit-get-top-dir was failing returning
garbage string like "zsh: cd: no such file or directory: ...". Now it
returns nil in such cases.

* magit.el (magit-insert-section): Revert earlier change: first
argument is used as the section title and the section type is usually
nil. When the first argument is a pair, it specvifies both the title
and the type.
* magit.el (magit-section-hidden-default): New.
(magit-new-section): Only expect type as argument, not a general list
of slots. Take 'hidden' value from magit-section-hidden-default.
(magit-with-section): Likewise.
(magit-wash-diff): Adapted.
* magit.el (magit-refresh-commit-buffer): Use nil as type for outer
section so that the highlight is not used for it.
(magit-refresh-log-buffer): Likewise.
* magit.el (magit-with-section): Check that args is a list before
accessing its car.
(magit-insert-section): Set the title of the section from the real
title, and the txpe from the real type.
If branch or tag name is the same as some file in repository, git log
was reporting that as "ambiguous argument 'test': both revision and
filename. Use '--' to separate filenames from revisions".
* magit.el (magit-correct-point-after-command): New.
(magit-post-command-hook): New, to collect all post-command activitiy.
(magit-mode): Use it instead of magit-highlight-section.
(magit-section-set-hidden): Don't touch the rear-stickyness.
