-Git v1.8.0.1 Release Notes
-==========================
-
-Fixes since v1.8.0
-------------------
-
- * The configuration parser had an unnecessary hardcoded limit on
-   variable names that was not checked consistently.
-
- * The "say" function in the test scaffolding incorrectly allowed
-   "echo" to interpret "\a" as if it were a C-string asking for a
-   BEL output.
-
- * "git mergetool" feeds /dev/null as a common ancestor when dealing
-   with an add/add conflict, but p4merge backend cannot handle
-   it. Work it around by passing a temporary empty file.
-
- * "git log -F -E --grep='<ere>'" failed to use the given <ere>
-   pattern as extended regular expression, and instead looked for the
-   string literally.
-
- * "git grep -e pattern <tree>" asked the attribute system to read
-   "<tree>:.gitattributes" file in the working tree, which was
-   nonsense.
-
- * A symbolic ref refs/heads/SYM was not correctly removed with "git
-   branch -d SYM"; the command removed the ref pointed by SYM
-   instead.
-
- * Earlier we fixed documentation to hyphenate "remote-tracking branch"
-   to clarify that these are not a remote entity, but unhyphenated
-   spelling snuck in to a few places since then.
-
- * "git pull --rebase" run while the HEAD is detached tried to find
-   the upstream branch of the detached HEAD (which by definition
-   does not exist) and emitted unnecessary error messages.
-
- * The refs/replace hierarchy was not mentioned in the
-   repository-layout docs.
-
- * Sometimes curl_multi_timeout() function suggested a wrong timeout
-   value when there is no file descriptors to wait on and the http
-   transport ended up sleeping for minutes in select(2) system call.
-   A workaround has been added for this.
-
- * Various rfc2047 quoting issues around a non-ASCII name on the
-   From: line in the output from format-patch have been corrected.
-
- * "git diff -G<pattern>" did not honor textconv filter when looking
-   for changes.
-
- * Bash completion script (in contrib/) did not correctly complete a
-   lazy "git checkout $name_of_remote_tracking_branch_that_is_unique"
-   command line.
-
- * RSS feed from "gitweb" had a xss hole in its title output.
-
- * "git config --path $key" segfaulted on "[section] key" (a boolean
-   "true" spelled without "=", not "[section] key = true").
-
- * "git checkout -b foo" while on an unborn branch did not say
-   "Switched to a new branch 'foo'" like other cases.
-
-Also contains other minor fixes and documentation updates.
