user-manual.txt is the only file we process using the "book" doctype. When we use AsciiDoc, user-manual.conf ensures that the linkgit macro expands into something like <ulink url="git-foo.html">git-foo(1)</ulink> in user-manual.xml, which we then process into a clickable link, both in user-manual.html and user-manual.pdf. With Asciidoctor, user-manual.conf is ignored (this is expected) and our Asciidoctor-specific implementation of linkgit kicks in: <citerefentry> <refentrytitle>git-foo</refentrytitle><manvolnum>1</manvolnum> </citerefentry> This eventually renders as "git-foo(1)", which is not bad, but it doesn't turn into a link. Teach our Asciidoctor-specific implementation of the linkgit macro that if the doctype is "book", we should emit <ulink .../> just like we do with AsciiDoc. While we're doing this, future-proof by supporting a "prefix". The implementation in user-manual.conf doesn't support this, and we don't need this for now because user-manual.txt is the only file we process this way (and it's immediately in Documentation/).
