Antoine Beaupré 21ec5872f4 expand manpages cross-references significantly
i found that most man pages only had references to the main git-annex
manpage, which i stillfind pretty huge and hard to navigate through.

i tried to sift through all the man pages and add cross-references
between relevant pages. my general rule of thumb is that links should
be both ways unless one of the pages is a more general page that would
become ridiculously huge if all backlinks would be added
(git-annex-preferred-content comes to mind).

i have also make the links one per line as this is how it was done in
the metadata pages so far.

i did everything but the plumbing, utility and test commands, although
some of those are linked from the other commands so cross-links were
added there as well.

# NAME
git-annex dropunused - drop unused file content
# SYNOPSIS
git annex dropunused `[number|range ...]`
# DESCRIPTION
Drops the data corresponding to the numbers, as listed by the last
git annex unused`
You can also specify ranges of numbers, such as "1-1000".
Or, specify "all" to drop all unused data.
# OPTIONS
* `--from=remote`
Rather than dropping the unused files from the local repository,
drop them from the remote repository.
* `--force`
Use this option with care! It bypasses safety checks, and forces
git-annex to delete the content of the specified files, even from
the last repository that is storing their content. Data loss can
result from using this option.
