* Update the funcname definition to support css files.
+ * The completion script (in contrib/) learned to complete "git
+ status" options.
+
+ * Messages that are generated by auto gc during "git push" on the
+ receiving end are now passed back to the sending end in such a way
+ that they are shown with "remote: " prefix to avoid confusing the
+ users.
+
+ * "git add -i/-p" learned to honor diff.compactionHeuristic
+ experimental knob, so that the user can work on the same hunk split
+ as "git diff" output.
+ (merge 46e3d17 jk/add-i-diff-compact-heuristics later to maint).
+
+ * "upload-pack" allows a custom "git pack-objects" replacement when
+ responding to "fetch/clone" via the uploadpack.packObjectsHook.
+ (merge 20b20a2 jk/upload-pack-hook later to maint).
+
+ * Teach format-patch and mailsplit (hence "am") how a line that
+ happens to begin with "From " in the e-mail message is quoted with
+ ">", so that these lines can be restored to their original shape.
+ (merge d9925d1 ew/mboxrd-format-am later to maint).
+
+ * "git repack" learned the "--keep-unreachable" option, which sends
+ loose unreachable objects to a pack instead of leaving them loose.
+ This helps heuristics based on the number of loose objects
+ (e.g. "gc --auto").
+ (merge e26a8c4 jk/repack-keep-unreachable later to maint).
+
+ * "log --graph --format=" learned that "%>|(N)" specifies the width
+ relative to the terminal's left edge, not relative to the area to
+ draw text that is to the right of the ancestry-graph section. It
+ also now accepts negative N that means the column limit is relative
+ to the right border.
+ (merge 066790d nd/graph-width-padded later to maint).
+
Performance, Internal Implementation, Development Support etc.
* "git upload-pack" command has been updated to use the parse-options
API.
+ * The "git apply" standalone program is being libified; this is the
+ first step to move many state variables into a structure that can
+ be explicitly (re)initialized to make the machinery callable more
+ than once.
+
+ * HTTP transport gained an option to produce more detailed debugging
+ trace.
+ (merge 73e57aa ep/http-curl-trace later to maint).
+
+ * Instead of taking advantage of a struct string_list that is
+ allocated with all NULs happens to be STRING_LIST_INIT_NODUP kind,
+ initialize them explicitly as such, to document their behaviour
+ better.
+ (merge 2721ce2 jk/string-list-static-init later to maint).
+
+ * HTTPd tests learned to show the server error log to help diagnosing
+ a failing tests.
+ (merge 44f243d nd/test-lib-httpd-show-error-log-in-verbose later to maint).
+
+ * The ownership rule for the piece of memory that hold references to
+ be fetched in "git fetch" was screwy, which has been cleaned up.
+ (merge b7410f6 km/fetch-do-not-free-remote-name later to maint).
+
+ * "git bisect" makes an internal call to "git diff-tree" when
+ bisection finds the culprit, but this call did not initialize the
+ data structure to pass to the diff-tree API correctly.
+ (merge 43ec550 jk/bisect-show-tree later to maint).
+
+ * Further preparatory clean-up for "worktree" feature continues.
+ (merge 0409e0b nd/worktree-cleanup-post-head-protection later to maint).
+
+ * Formats of the various data (and how to validate them) where we use
+ GPG signature have been documented.
+ (merge cc6ee97 mg/signature-doc later to maint).
+
+ * A new run-command API function pipe_command() is introduced to
+ sanely feed data to the standard input while capturing data from
+ the standard output and the standard error of an external process,
+ which is cumbersome to hand-roll correctly without deadlocking.
+
+ The codepath to sign data in a prepared buffer with GPG has been
+ updated to use this API to read from the status-fd to check for
+ errors (instead of relying on GPG's exit status).
+ (merge efee955 jk/gpg-interface-cleanup later to maint).
+
Also contains various documentation updates and code clean-ups.
which has been fixed.
(merge 6f8d9bc rs/xdiff-hunk-with-func-line later to maint).
+ * The documentation set has been updated so that literal commands,
+ configuration variables and environment variables are consistently
+ typeset in fixed-width font and bold in manpages.
+
+ * "git svn propset" subcommand that was added in 2.3 days is
+ documented now.
+
+ * The documentation tries to consistently spell "GPG"; when
+ referring to the specific program name, "gpg" is used.
+
+ * "git reflog" stopped upon seeing an entry that denotes a branch
+ creation event (aka "unborn"), which made it appear as if the
+ reflog was truncated.
+
+ * The git-prompt scriptlet (in contrib/) was not friendly with those
+ who uses "set -u", which has been fixed.
+
+ * compat/regex code did not cleanly compile.
+
+ * A codepath that used alloca(3) to place an unbounded amount of data
+ on the stack has been updated to avoid doing so.
+
+ * "git update-index --add --chmod=+x file" may be usable as an escape
+ hatch, but not a friendly thing to force for people who do need to
+ use it regularly. "git add --chmod=+x file" can be used instead.
+
+ * Build improvements for gnome-keyring (in contrib/)
+
+ * "git status" used to say "working directory" when it meant "working
+ tree".
+
+ * Comments about misbehaving FreeBSD shells have been clarified with
+ the version number (9.x and before are broken, newer ones are OK).
+
+ * "git cherry-pick A" worked on an unborn branch, but "git
+ cherry-pick A..B" didn't.
+
+ * Fix an unintended regression in v2.9 that breaks "clone --depth"
+ that recurses down to submodules by forcing the submodules to also
+ be cloned shallowly, which many server instances that host upstream
+ of the submodules are not prepared for.
+ (merge 18a74a0 sb/clone-shallow-passthru later to maint).
+
+ * Fix unnecessarily waste in the idiomatic use of ': ${VAR=default}'
+ to set the default value, without enclosing it in double quotes.
+ (merge 01247e0 lc/shell-default-value-noexpand later to maint).
+
+ * Some platform-specific code had non-ANSI strict declarations of C
+ functions that do not take any parameters, which has been
+ corrected.
+ (merge 0767172 js/mingw-parameter-less-c-functions later to maint).
+
+ * The internal code used to show local timezone offset is not
+ prepared to handle timestamps beyond year 2100, and gave a
+ bogus offset value to the caller. Use a more benign looking
+ +0000 instead and let "git log" going in such a case, instead
+ of aborting.
+ (merge bab7483 jk/tzoffset-fix later to maint).
+
+ * One among four invocations of readlink(1) in our test suite has
+ been rewritten so that the test can run on systems without the
+ command (others are in valgrind test framework and t9802).
+ (merge d2addc3 ak/t7800-wo-readlink later to maint).
+
+ * t/perf needs /usr/bin/time with GNU extension; the invocation of it
+ is updated to "gtime" on Darwin.
+ (merge e3efa94 js/perf-on-apple later to maint).
+
+ * A bug, which caused "git p4" while running under verbose mode to
+ report paths that are omitted due to branch prefix incorrectly, has
+ been fixed; the command said "Ignoring file outside of prefix" for
+ paths that are _inside_.
+ (merge 09667d0 ao/p4-has-branch-prefix-fix later to maint).
+
* Other minor clean-ups and documentation updates
+ (merge e51b0df pb/commit-editmsg-path later to maint).
+ (merge b333d0d jk/send-pack-stdio later to maint).
