f56911726a Makefile: refine man page rules
Rename HAS_DOCBOOK option to ENABLE_MAN.

Allow xsltproc to fetch the Docbook stylesheet from the Internet if it's
not installed locally.  This will hopefully make it easier for folks
to build the man page.

0a2e633d7f Recommend Git 1.8.5 or newer for best performance
Since older versions of Git have to spawn a separate
check-attr process for every file in the repository,
which is slow.

Streamline the instructions a bit.  Mention the Debian/Ubuntu and
RHEL/CentOS packages for each dependency.

5fd36a7ac5 Increase minimum supported Git version to 1.7.2
Previously, git-crypt claimed to support Git as old as 1.6.0 (albeit
with degraded operation).  However, this has not been true for some time,
since Git 1.6.0 does not support the --porcelain option to `git status`.

Since Git 1.7.2 was the first version of Git to support filters with
`git blame`, was released almost five years ago (in July 2010), and is
even in Debian Squeeze, it seems like a good minimum version to require.
