-Git v2.10.2 Release Notes
-=========================
-
-Fixes since v2.10.1
--------------------
-
- * The code that parses the format parameter of for-each-ref command
-   has seen a micro-optimization.
-
- * The "graph" API used in "git log --graph" miscounted the number of
-   output columns consumed so far when drawing a padding line, which
-   has been fixed; this did not affect any existing code as nobody
-   tried to write anything after the padding on such a line, though.
-
- * Almost everybody uses DEFAULT_ABBREV to refer to the default
-   setting for the abbreviation, but "git blame" peeked into
-   underlying variable bypassing the macro for no good reason.
-
- * Doc update to clarify what "log -3 --reverse" does.
-
- * An author name, that spelled a backslash-quoted double quote in the
-   human readable part "My \"double quoted\" name", was not unquoted
-   correctly while applying a patch from a piece of e-mail.
-
- * The original command line syntax for "git merge", which was "git
-   merge <msg> HEAD <parent>...", has been deprecated for quite some
-   time, and "git gui" was the last in-tree user of the syntax.  This
-   is finally fixed, so that we can move forward with the deprecation.
-
- * Codepaths that read from an on-disk loose object were too loose in
-   validating what they are reading is a proper object file and
-   sometimes read past the data they read from the disk, which has
-   been corrected.  H/t to Gustavo Grieco for reporting.
-
- * "git worktree", even though it used the default_abbrev setting that
-   ought to be affected by core.abbrev configuration variable, ignored
-   the variable setting.  The command has been taught to read the
-   default set of configuration variables to correct this.
-
- * A low-level function verify_packfile() was meant to show errors
-   that were detected without dying itself, but under some conditions
-   it didn't and died instead, which has been fixed.
-
- * When "git fetch" tries to find where the history of the repository
-   it runs in has diverged from what the other side has, it has a
-   mechanism to avoid digging too deep into irrelevant side branches.
-   This however did not work well over the "smart-http" transport due
-   to a design bug, which has been fixed.
-
- * When we started cURL to talk to imap server when a new enough
-   version of cURL library is available, we forgot to explicitly add
-   imap(s):// before the destination.  To some folks, that didn't work
-   and the library tried to make HTTP(s) requests instead.
-
- * The ./configure script generated from configure.ac was taught how
-   to detect support of SSL by libcurl better.
-
- * http.emptyauth configuration is a way to allow an empty username to
-   pass when attempting to authenticate using mechanisms like
-   Kerberos.  We took an unspecified (NULL) username and sent ":"
-   (i.e. no username, no password) to CURLOPT_USERPWD, but did not do
-   the same when the username is explicitly set to an empty string.
-
- * "git clone" of a local repository can be done at the filesystem
-   level, but the codepath did not check errors while copying and
-   adjusting the file that lists alternate object stores.
-
- * Documentation for "git commit" was updated to clarify that "commit
-   -p <paths>" adds to the current contents of the index to come up
-   with what to commit.
-
- * A stray symbolic link in $GIT_DIR/refs/ directory could make name
-   resolution loop forever, which has been corrected.
-
- * The "submodule.<name>.path" stored in .gitmodules is never copied
-   to .git/config and such a key in .git/config has no meaning, but
-   the documentation described it and submodule.<name>.url next to
-   each other as if both belong to .git/config.  This has been fixed.
-
- * Recent git allows submodule.<name>.branch to use a special token
-   "." instead of the branch name; the documentation has been updated
-   to describe it.
-
- * In a worktree connected to a repository elsewhere, created via "git
-   worktree", "git checkout" attempts to protect users from confusion
-   by refusing to check out a branch that is already checked out in
-   another worktree.  However, this also prevented checking out a
-   branch, which is designated as the primary branch of a bare
-   repository, in a worktree that is connected to the bare
-   repository.  The check has been corrected to allow it.
-
- * "git rebase" immediately after "git clone" failed to find the fork
-   point from the upstream.
-
- * When fetching from a remote that has many tags that are irrelevant
-   to branches we are following, we used to waste way too many cycles
-   when checking if the object pointed at by a tag (that we are not
-   going to fetch!) exists in our repository too carefully.
-
- * The Travis CI configuration we ship ran the tests with --verbose
-   option but this risks non-TAP output that happens to be "ok" to be
-   misinterpreted as TAP signalling a test that passed.  This resulted
-   in unnecessary failure.  This has been corrected by introducing a
-   new mode to run our tests in the test harness to send the verbose
-   output separately to the log file.
-
- * Some AsciiDoc formatter mishandles a displayed illustration with
-   tabs in it.  Adjust a few of them in merge-base documentation to
-   work around them.
-
-Also contains minor documentation updates and code clean-ups.
