+
Performance, Internal Implementation, Development Support etc.

Fixes since v2.21
-----------------
* Build update for SHA-1 with collision detection.
(merge 07a20f569b jk/sha1dc later to maint).
+ * Build procedure has been fixed around use of asciidoctor instead of
+ asciidoc.
+ (merge 185f9a0ea0 ma/asciidoctor-fixes later to maint).
+
+ * remote-http transport did not anonymize URLs reported in its error
+ messages at places.
+ (merge c1284b21f2 js/anonymize-remote-curl-diag later to maint).
+
+ * Error messages given from the http transport have been updated so
+ that they can be localized.
+ (merge ed8b4132c8 js/remote-curl-i18n later to maint).
+
+ * "git init" forgot to read platform-specific repository
+ configuration, which made Windows port to ignore settings of
+ core.hidedotfiles, for example.

+ * A corner-case object name ambiguity while the sequencer machinery
+ is working (e.g. "rebase -i -x") has been fixed.
+

+ * "git checkout -f <branch>" while the index has an unmerged path

+ corrected.

+
+ * Unicode update.
