   4Fixes since v1.7.2.2
   5--------------------
   6
   7 * When people try insane things such as delta-compressing 4GiB files, we
   8   threw an assertion failure.
   9
  10 * "git archive" gave the full commit ID for "$Format:%h$".
  11
  12 * "git fetch --tags" did not fetch tags when remote.<nick>.tagopt was set
  13   to --no-tags.  The command line option now overrides the configuration
  14   setting.
  15
  16 * "git for-each-ref --format='%(objectname:short)'" has been completely
  17   broken for a long time.
  18
  19 * "git gc" incorrectly pruned a rerere record that was created long
  20   time ago but still is actively and repeatedly used.
  21
  22 * "git log --follow -M -p" was seriously broken in 1.7.2, reporting
  23   assertion failure.
  24
  25 * Running "git log" with an incorrect option started pager nevertheless,
  26   forcing the user to dismiss it.
  27
  28 * "git rebase" did not work well when the user has diff.renames
  29   configuration variable set.
  30
  31 * An earlier (and rather old) fix to "git rebase" against a rebased
  32   upstream broke a more normal, non rebased upstream case rather badly,
  33   attempting to re-apply patches that are already accepted upstream.
  34
  35 * "git submodule sync" forgot to update the superproject's config file
  36   when submodule URL changed.
  37
  38 * "git pack-refs --all --prune" did not remove a directory that has
  39   become empty.
