* "git interpret-trailers" can now run outside of a Git repository.
+ * "git p4" learned to reencode the pathname it uses to communicate
+ with the p4 depot with a new option.
+
+ * Give progress meter to "git filter-branch".
+
+ * Allow a later "!/abc/def" to override an earlier "/abc" that
+ appears in the same .gitignore file to make it easier to express
+ "everything in /abc directory is ignored, except for ...".
+
+ * Teach "git p4" to send large blobs outside the repository by
+ talking to Git LFS.

Performance, Internal Implementation, Development Support etc.
been improved to mark the side-band communication specifically.
(merge fd89433 jk/async-pkt-line later to maint).
+ * Update "git branch" that list existing branches, using the
+ ref-filter API that is shared with "git tag" and "git
+ for-each-ref".
+
Also contains various documentation updates and code clean-ups.
in our Makefile was broken when they were used together.
(merge ef49e05 jk/make-findstring-makeflags-fix later to maint).
+ * Allocation related functions and stdio are unsafe things to call
+ inside a signal handler, and indeed killing the pager can cause
+ glibc to deadlock waiting on allocation mutex as our signal handler
+ tries to free() some data structures in wait_for_pager(). Reduce
+ these unsafe calls.
+ (merge 507d780 ti/glibc-stdio-mutex-from-signal-handler later to maint).
+
+ * The way how --ref/--notes to specify the notes tree reference are
+ DWIMmed was not clearly documented.
+ (merge e14c92e jk/notes-dwim-doc later to maint).
+
+ * "git gc" used to barf when a symbolic ref has gone dangling
+ (e.g. the branch that used to be your upstream's default when you
+ cloned from it is now gone, and you did "fetch --prune").
+ (merge 14886b4 js/gc-with-stale-symref later to maint).
+
+ * "git clone --dissociate" runs a big "git repack" process at the
+ end, and it helps to close file descriptors that are open on the
+ packs and their idx files before doing so on filesystems that
+ cannot remove a file that is still open.
+ (merge 786b150 js/clone-dissociate later to maint).
+
+ * Description of the "log.follow" configuration variable in "git log"
+ documentation is now also copied to "git config" documentation.
+ (merge fd8d07e dt/log-follow-config later to maint).
+
+ * "git rebase -i" had a minor regression recently, which stopped
+ considering a line that begins with an indented '#' in its insn
+ sheet not a comment, which is now fixed.
+ (merge 1db168e gr/rebase-i-drop-warn later to maint).
+
+ * After "git checkout --detach", "git status" reported a fairly
+ useless "HEAD detached at HEAD", instead of saying at which exact
+ commit.
+ (merge 0eb8548 mm/detach-at-HEAD-reflog later to maint).
+
+ * When "git send-email" wanted to talk over Net::SMTP::SSL,
+ Net::Cmd::datasend() did not like to be fed too many bytes at the
+ same time and failed to send messages. Send the payload one line
+ at a time to work around the problem.
+ (merge f60c483 sa/send-email-smtp-batch-data-limit later to maint).
+
+ * When "git am" was rewritten as a built-in, it stopped paying
+ attention to user.signingkey, which was fixed.
+ (merge 434c64d pt/am-builtin later to maint).
+
+ * It was not possible to use a repository-lookalike created by "git
+ worktree add" as a local source of "git clone".
+ (merge d78db84 nd/clone-linked-checkout later to maint).
+
+ * On a case insensitive filesystems, setting GIT_WORK_TREE variable
+ using a random cases that does not agree with what the filesystem
+ thinks confused Git that it wasn't inside the working tree.
+ (merge 63ec5e1 js/icase-wt-detection later to maint).
+
+ * Performance-measurement tests did not work without an installed Git.
+ (merge 31cd128 sb/perf-without-installed-git later to maint).
+
+ * A test script for the HTTP service had a timing dependent bug,
+ which was fixed.
+ (merge 362d8b6 sb/http-flaky-test-fix later to maint).
+
+ * There were some classes of errors that "git fsck" diagnosed to its
+ standard error that did not cause it to exit with non-zero status.
+ (merge 122f76f jc/fsck-dropped-errors later to maint).
+
+ * Work around "git p4" failing when the P4 depot records the contents
+ in UTF-16 without UTF-16 BOM.
+ (merge 1f5f390 ls/p4-translation-failure later to maint).
+
+ * When "git gc --auto" is backgrounded, its diagnosis message is
+ lost. Save it to a file in $GIT_DIR and show it next time the "gc
+ --auto" is run.
+ (merge 329e6e8 nd/gc-auto-background-fix later to maint).
+
+ * The submodule code has been taught to work better with separate
+ work trees created via "git worktree add".
+ (merge 11f9dd7 mk/submodule-gitdir-path later to maint).
+
* Code clean-up and minor fixes.
