[PATCH] BOOK: Clarifications and minor corrections

The minor corrections are obvious, but could someone say whether they 
agree with my three "clarifications"?  (The explanation of "ci" does not 
necessarily have to go where I put it, but I think it should go in the 
book somewhere.)


Clarifications and minor corrections.

* doc/book/book/ch02.xml:
   Use "mdash" entity instead of literal dashes.

* doc/book/book/ch03.xml:
   Change wording to encourage users to issue "svn resolve" rather than
   removing the temporary files manually.
   Change of emphasis for clarity.
   Insert a missing word.

* doc/book/book/ch04.xml:
   Use "mdash" entity instead of literal dashes.
   Fix grammar/typo.

* doc/book/book/ch05.xml:
   Fix grammar/typos.

* doc/book/book/ch06.xml:
   Fix grammar/typos.

* doc/book/book/ch07.xml:
   Fix spelling.

* doc/book/book/ch08.xml:
   Explain why "ci" and not "co" is the abbreviation for "commit".
   Fix spelling.

I fully support this notion, and could've sworn that in one of our
author meetings we had decided to push 'svn resolve' over the tmpfile
removal.  So, +1.

This is all good, too.

I like the idea of this, but not the syntax.

I'll apply this patch with the minor mods I prefer.
