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 unlock - unlock files for modification
# SYNOPSIS
git annex unlock `[path ...]`
# DESCRIPTION
Normally, the content of annexed files is protected from being changed.
Unlocking an annexed file allows it to be modified. This replaces the
symlink for each specified file with a copy of the file's content.
You can then modify it and `git annex add` (or `git commit`) to inject
it back into the annex.
# OPTIONS
* file matching options
The [[git-annex-matching-options]](1)
can be used to specify files to unlock.
# SEE ALSO
