[PATCH] request-pull: short sha handling, manual update

[Petr Stodulka <pstodulk@redhat.com>]

request-pull prints incorrectly warn messages about not found commits 
and man pages don't say
anything about todays changed behaviour. People are confused and try 
look for errors at wrong places.
At least these should be fixed/modified.

Warn massage says that commit can't be found ar remote, however there it 
is in and is missing on local repository
in 'many' cases. So I don't know if better solution is check, where 
commit is truly missing or transform warning message.
Something like:

    warn: No match for commit <commit> found at <url> or local repository.
    warn: Are you sure you have synchronized branch with remote repository?

......
man page could be changed like this:

+NOTES
+-----
+
+Since git version 2.0.0 is behaviour of git request-pull little different.
+It is recommended use of third argument for each request-pull, otherwise
+you can get error message like:
+
+   warn: No match for commit <commit> found at <url>
+   warn: Are you sure you pushed 'HEAD' there?

Second patch provides right processing of third parameter when short 
version of sha hash is used (e.g. 897a111). Now is
supported only full hash, what is different behaviour against first 
parameter or what can be found in other functions. Extra
solves one of cases of wrong warn message.
