* "git diff --no-index" on binary files no longer outputs a bogus
"diff --git" header line.
+* "git diff" hunk header patterns with multiple elements separated by LF
+ were not used correctly.
+
* Hunk headers in "git diff" default to using extended regular
expressions, fixing some of the internal patterns on non-GNU
platforms.
* New config "diff.*.xfuncname" exposes extended regular expressions
for user specified hunk header patterns.
+* "git gc" when ejecting otherwise unreachable objects from packfiles into
+ loose form leaked memory.
+
* "git index-pack" was recently broken and mishandled objects added by
thin-pack completion processing under memory pressure.
+* "git index-pack" was recently broken and misbehaved when run from inside
+ .git/objects/pack/ directory.
+
* "git stash apply sash@{1}" was fixed to error out. Prior versions
would have applied stash@{0} incorrectly.
* "git remote show -v" now displays all URLs of a remote.
+* "git checkout -b branch" was confused when branch already existed.
+
* "git checkout -q" once again suppresses the locally modified file list.
* "git clone -q", "git fetch -q" asks remote side to not send
("git fetch") is still however supported.
