+GIT v1.5.4.2 Release Notes
+==========================
+
+Fixes since v1.5.4
+------------------
+
+ * The configuration parser was not prepared to see string
+   valued variables misspelled as boolean and segfaulted.
+
+ * Temporary files left behind due to interrupted object
+   transfers were not cleaned up with "git prune".
+
+ * "git config --unset" was confused when the unset variables
+   were spelled with continuation lines in the config file.
+
+ * The merge message detection in "git cvsimport" did not catch
+   a message that began with "Merge...".
+
+ * "git status" suggests "git rm --cached" for unstaging the
+   earlier "git add" before the initial commit.
+
+ * "git status" output was incorrect during a partial commit.
+
+ * "git bisect" refused to start when the HEAD was detached.
+
+ * "git bisect" allowed a wildcard character in the commit
+   message expanded while writing its log file.
+
+ * Manual pages were not formatted correctly with docbook xsl
+   1.72; added a workaround.
+
+ * "git-commit -C $tag" used to work but rewrite in C done in
+   1.5.4 broke it.  This was fixed in 1.5.4.1.
+
+ * An entry in the .gitattributes file that names a pattern in a
+   subdirectory of the directory it is in did not match
+   correctly (e.g. pattern "b/*.c" in "a/.gitattributes" should
+   match "a/b/foo.c" but it didn't).  This was fixed in 1.5.4.1.
+
+ * Customized color specification was parsed incorrectly when
+   numeric color values are used.  This was fixed in 1.5.4.1.
+
+ * http transport misbehaved when linked with curl-gnutls.
