When having symbolic links to the same repositories (e.g. if you have "repo"
and a "repo.git" linking to it), it can be useful to ignore based on regular
expressions to avoid having duplicates in the output.

The 'max_pages' default value of 5 is quite low. Coupled with
'commits_per_page' default 50, this allows for only 250 commits, which
is likely unsuitable for even relatively small projects. Options are to
remove the cap altogether or to raise the default limit. At this time,
choose the latter, which should be friendlier to larger projects, in
general, while still guarding against run-away storage space
consumption.

At its inception, Git did not show a "creation event" diff for a
project's root commit since early projects, such as the Linux kernel,
were already well established, and a large root diff was considered
uninteresting noise.
On the other hand, new projects adopting Git typically have small root
commits, and such a "creation event" is likely to have meaning, rather
than being pure noise. Consequently, git-diff-tree gained a --root flag
in dc26bd89 (diff-tree: add "--root" flag to show a root commit as a big
creation event, 2005-05-19), though it was disabled by default.
Displaying the root "creation event" diff, however, became the default
behavior when configuration option 'log.showroot' was added to git-log
in 0f03ca94 (config option log.showroot to show the diff of root
commits; 2006-11-23). And, gitk (belatedly) followed suit when it
learned to respect 'log.showroot' in b2b76d10 (gitk: Teach gitk to
respect log.showroot; 2011-10-04).
By default, these tools now all show the root diff as a "creation
event", however, git-arr suppresses it unconditionally. Resolve this
shortcoming by adding a new git-arr configuration option "rootdiff" to
control the behavior (enabled by default).

By default, git-arr limits the number of pages of commits to 5, however,
it is reasonable to expect that some projects will want all commits to
be shown. Rather than forcing such projects to choose an arbitrarily
large number as the value of 'max_pages', provide a formal mechanism to
specify unlimited commit pages.

These repo-specific options were added in 54026b75 (Make embedding
markdown and images configurable per-repo, 2013-11-02) but not
documented.
