+ * "git rebase", especially when it is run by mistake and ends up
+ trying to replay many changes, spent long time in silence. The
+ command has been taught to show progress report when it spends
+ long time preparing these many changes to replay (which would give
+ the user a chance to abort with ^C).

Performance, Internal Implementation, Development Support etc.
hand-rolled substitute.
(merge 90dbf226ba js/git-gui-msgfmt-on-windows later to maint).
+ * "git grep --recurse-submodules" has been reworked to give a more
+ consistent output across submodule boundary (and do its thing
+ without having to fork a separate process).
+
+ * A helper function to read a single whole line into strbuf
+ mistakenly triggered OOM error at EOF under certain conditions,
+ which has been fixed.
+ (merge 642956cf45 rs/strbuf-getwholeline-fix later to maint).
+
+ * The "ref-store" code reorganization continues.
+
+ * "git commit" used to discard the index and re-read from the filesystem
+ just in case the pre-commit hook has updated it in the middle; this
+ has been optimized out when we know we do not run the pre-commit hook.
+ (merge 680ee550d7 kw/commit-keep-index-when-pre-commit-is-not-run later to maint).

Also contains various documentation updates and code clean-ups.
and then "git tag -l" is made to run pager by default.
(merge 595d59e2b5 ma/pager-per-subcommand-action later to maint).
+ * "git push --recurse-submodules $there HEAD:$target" was not
+ propagated down to the submodules, but now it is.
+ (merge c7be7201a7 bw/push-options-recursively-to-submodules later to maint).
+
+ * Commands like "git rebase" accepted the --rerere-autoupdate option
+ from the command line, but did not always use it. This has been
+ fixed.
+ (merge f826fb799e pw/sequence-rerere-autoupdate later to maint).
+
+ * "git clone --recurse-submodules --quiet" did not pass the quiet
+ option down to submodules.
+ (merge 03c004c581 bw/clone-recursive-quiet later to maint).
+
+ * Test portability fix for OBSD.

+
+ * Portability fix for OBSD.
+ (merge 29c2eda80b rs/in-obsd-basename-dirname-take-const later to maint).
+
+ * "git am -s" has been taught that some input may end with a trailer
+ block that is not Signed-off-by: and it should refrain from adding
+ an extra blank line before adding a new sign-off in such a case.
+ (merge 735285b403 pw/am-signoff later to maint).
+
+ * "git svn" used with "--localtime" option did not compute the tz
+ offset for the timestamp in question and instead always used the
+ current time, which has been corrected.
+ (merge 1adc4b9a58 ur/svn-local-zone later to maint).
+
+ * Memory leak in an error codepath has been plugged.

+ (merge 149d8cbb2e rs/win32-syslog-leakfix later to maint).
+
+ * "git stash -u" used the contents of the committed version of the
+ ".gitignore" file to decide which paths are ignored, even when the
+ file has local changes. The command has been taught to instead use
+ the locally modified contents.
+
+ * bash 4.4 or newer gave a warning on NUL byte in command
+ substitution done in "git stash"; this has been squelched.
+ (merge 5fc92f8828 kd/stash-with-bash-4.4 later to maint).
+
+ * "git grep -L" and "git grep --quiet -L" reported different exit
+ codes; this has been corrected.
+ (merge e1f68c66d5 as/grep-quiet-no-match-exit-code-fix later to maint).
