Updates since v1.5.4
--------------------
+(subsystems)
+
+ * Comes with git-gui 0.9.3
+
(performance)
* On platforms with suboptimal qsort(3) implementation, there
* "git add -i" behaves better even before you make an initial commit.
+ * "git am" refused to run from a subdirectory without a good reason.
+
* After "git apply --whitespace=fix" fixes whitespace errors in a patch,
a line before the fix can appear as a context or preimage line in a
later patch, causing the patch not to apply. The command now knows to
inspect what is going to be committed and prepare the commit
log message template to be edited.
+ * "git cvsimport" can now take more than one -M options.
+
* "git describe" learned to limit the tags to be used for
naming with --match option.
* "git describe --exact-match" describes only commits that are tagged.
+ * "git describe --long" describes a tagged commit as $tag-0-$sha1,
+ instead of just showing the exact tagname.
+
+ * "git describe" warns when using a tag whose name and path contradict
+ with each other.
+
* "git diff" learned "--relative" option to limit and output paths
relative to the current directory when working in a subdirectory.
* "git format-patch" learned --cover-letter option to generate a cover
letter template.
+ * "git gc" learned --quiet option.
+
* "git grep" now knows "--name-only" is a synonym for the "-l" option.
* "git help <alias>" now reports "'git <alias>' is alias to <what>",
All of the fixes in v1.5.4 maintenance series are included in
this release, unless otherwise noted.
+ * "git-http-push" did not allow deletion of remote ref with the usual
+ "push <remote> :<branch>" syntax.
+
+ * "git-rebase --abort" did not go back to the right location if
+ "git-reset" was run during the "git-rebase" session.
