-Git v1.7.10.2 Release Notes
-===========================
-
-Fixes since v1.7.10.1
----------------------
-
- * The test scaffolding for git-daemon was flaky.
-
- * The test scaffolding for fast-import was flaky.
-
- * The filesystem boundary was not correctly reported when .git directory
-   discovery stopped at a mount point.
-
- * HTTP transport that requires authentication did not work correctly when
-   multiple connections are used simultaneously.
-
- * Minor memory leak during unpack_trees (hence "merge" and "checkout"
-   to check out another branch) has been plugged.
-
- * In the older days, the header "Conflicts:" in "cherry-pick" and "merge"
-   was separated by a blank line from the list of paths that follow for
-   readability, but when "merge" was rewritten in C, we lost it by
-   mistake. Remove the newline from "cherry-pick" to make them match
-   again.
-
- * The command line parser choked "git cherry-pick $name" when $name can
-   be both revision name and a pathname, even though $name can never be a
-   path in the context of the command.
-
- * The "include.path" facility in the configuration mechanism added in
-   1.7.10 forgot to interpret "~/path" and "~user/path" as it should.
-
- * "git config --rename-section" to rename an existing section into a
-   bogus one did not check the new name.
-
- * The "diff --no-index" codepath used limited-length buffers, risking
-   pathnames getting truncated.  Update it to use the strbuf API.
-
- * The report from "git fetch" said "new branch" even for a non branch
-   ref.
-
- * The http-backend (the server side of the smart http transfer) used
-   to overwrite GIT_COMMITTER_NAME and GIT_COMMITTER_EMAIL with the
-   value obtained from REMOTE_USER unconditionally, making it
-   impossible for the server side site-specific customization to use
-   different identity sources to affect the names logged. It now uses
-   REMOTE_USER only as a fallback value.
-
- * "log --graph" was not very friendly with "--stat" option and its
-   output had line breaks at wrong places.
-
- * Octopus merge strategy did not reduce heads that are recorded in the
-   final commit correctly.
-
- * "git push" over smart-http lost progress output a few releases ago;
-   this release resurrects it.
-
- * The error and advice messages given by "git push" when it fails due
-   to non-ff were not very helpful to new users; it has been broken
-   into three cases, and each is given a separate advice message.
-
- * The insn sheet given by "rebase -i" did not make it clear that the
-   insn lines can be re-ordered to affect the order of the commits in
-   the resulting history.
-
- * "git repack" used to write out unreachable objects as loose objects
-   when repacking, even if such loose objects will immediately pruned
-   due to its age.
-
- * A contrib script "rerere-train" did not work out of the box unless
-   user futzed with her $PATH.
-
- * "git rev-parse --show-prefix" used to emit nothing when run at the
-   top-level of the working tree, but now it gives a blank line.
-
- * The i18n of error message "git stash save" was not properly done.
-
- * "git submodule" used a sed script that some platforms mishandled.
-
- * When using a Perl script on a system where "perl" found on user's
-   $PATH could be ancient or otherwise broken, we allow builders to
-   specify the path to a good copy of Perl with $PERL_PATH.  The
-   gitweb test forgot to use that Perl when running its test.
-
-Also contains minor fixes and documentation updates.
