   4Fixes since v2.3.7
   5------------------
   6
   7 * The usual "git diff" when seeing a file turning into a directory
   8   showed a patchset to remove the file and create all files in the
   9   directory, but "git diff --no-index" simply refused to work.  Also,
  10   when asked to compare a file and a directory, imitate POSIX "diff"
  11   and compare the file with the file with the same name in the
  12   directory, instead of refusing to run.
  13
  14 * The default $HOME/.gitconfig file created upon "git config --global"
  15   that edits it had incorrectly spelled user.name and user.email
  16   entries in it.
  17
  18 * "git commit --date=now" or anything that relies on approxidate lost
  19   the daylight-saving-time offset.

  22clean-ups.
