-Git v1.8.2.1 Release Notes
-==========================
-
-Fixes since v1.8.2
-------------------
-
- * An earlier change to the attribute system introduced at v1.8.1.2 by
-   mistake stopped a pattern "dir" (without trailing slash) from
-   matching a directory "dir" (it only wanted to allow pattern "dir/"
-   to also match).
-
- * Verification of signed tags were not done correctly when not in C
-   or en/US locale.
-
- * 'git commit -m "$msg"' used to add an extra newline even when
-   $msg already ended with one.
-
- * The "--match=<pattern>" option of "git describe", when used with
-   "--all" to allow refs that are not annotated tags to be used as a
-   base of description, did not restrict the output from the command
-   to those that match the given pattern.
-
- * An aliased command spawned from a bare repository that does not say
-   it is bare with "core.bare = yes" is treated as non-bare by mistake.
-
- * When "format-patch" quoted a non-ascii strings on the header files,
-   it incorrectly applied rfc2047 and chopped a single character in
-   the middle of it.
-
- * "git archive" reports a failure when asked to create an archive out
-   of an empty tree.  It would be more intuitive to give an empty
-   archive back in such a case.
-
- * "git tag -f <tag>" always said "Updated tag '<tag>'" even when
-   creating a new tag (i.e. not overwriting nor updating).
-
- * "git cmd -- ':(top'" was not diagnosed as an invalid syntax, and
-   instead the parser kept reading beyond the end of the string.
-
- * Annotated tags outside refs/tags/ hierarchy were not advertised
-   correctly to the ls-remote and fetch with recent version of Git.
-
- * The code to keep track of what directory names are known to Git on
-   platforms with case insensitive filesystems can get confused upon a
-   hash collision between these pathnames and looped forever.
-
- * The logic used by "git diff -M --stat" to shorten the names of
-   files before and after a rename did not work correctly when the
-   common prefix and suffix between the two filenames overlapped.
-
- * "git submodule update", when recursed into sub-submodules, did not
-   accumulate the prefix paths.
-
- * "git am $maildir/" applied messages in an unexpected order; sort
-   filenames read from the maildir/ in a way that is more likely to
-   sort messages in the order the writing MUA meant to, by sorting
-   numeric segment in numeric order and non-numeric segment in
-   alphabetical order.
-
- * When export-subst is used, "zip" output recorded incorrect
-   size of the file.
-
- * Some platforms and users spell UTF-8 differently; retry with the
-   most official "UTF-8" when the system does not understand the
-   user-supplied encoding name that are the common alternative
-   spellings of UTF-8.
-
- * "git branch" did not bother to check nonsense command line
-   parameters and issue errors in many cases.
-
- * "git update-index -h" did not do the usual "-h(elp)" thing.
-
- * perl/Git.pm::cat_blob slurped everything in core only to write it
-   out to a file descriptor, which was not a very smart thing to do.
-
- * The SSL peer verification done by "git imap-send" did not ask for
-   Server Name Indication (RFC 4366), failing to connect SSL/TLS
-   sites that serve multiple hostnames on a single IP.
-
- * "git index-pack" had a buffer-overflow while preparing an
-   informational message when the translated version of it was too
-   long.
-
- * Clarify in the documentation "what" gets pushed to "where" when the
-   command line to "git push" does not say these explicitly.
-
- * In "git reflog expire", REACHABLE bit was not cleared from the
-   correct objects.
-
- * The "--color=<when>" argument to the commands in the diff family
-   was described poorly.
-
- * The arguments given to pre-rebase hook were not documented.
-
- * The v4 index format was not documented.
-
- * The "--match=<pattern>" argument "git describe" takes uses glob
-   pattern but it wasn't obvious from the documentation.
-
- * Some sources failed to compile on systems that lack NI_MAXHOST in
-   their system header (e.g. z/OS).
-
- * Add an example use of "--env-filter" in "filter-branch"
-   documentation.
-
- * "git bundle verify" did not say "records a complete history" for a
-   bundle that does not have any prerequisites.
-
- * In the v1.8.0 era, we changed symbols that do not have to be global
-   to file scope static, but a few functions in graph.c were used by
-   CGit from sideways bypassing the entry points of the API the
-   in-tree users use.
-
- * "git merge-tree" had a typo in the logic to detect d/f conflicts,
-   which caused it to segfault in some cases.
