-Git v2.13.1 Release Notes
-=========================
-
-Fixes since v2.13
------------------
-
- * The Web interface to gmane news archive is long gone, even though
-   the articles are still accessible via NTTP.  Replace the links with
-   ones to public-inbox.org.  Because their message identification is
-   based on the actual message-id, it is likely that it will be easier
-   to migrate away from it if/when necessary.
-
- * Update tests to pass under GETTEXT_POISON (a mechanism to ensure
-   that output strings that should not be translated are not
-   translated by mistake), and tell TravisCI to run them.
-
- * Setting "log.decorate=false" in the configuration file did not take
-   effect in v2.13, which has been corrected.
-
- * An earlier update to test 7400 needed to be skipped on CYGWIN.
-
- * Git sometimes gives an advice in a rhetorical question that does
-   not require an answer, which can confuse new users and non native
-   speakers.  Attempt to rephrase them.
-
- * "git read-tree -m" (no tree-ish) gave a nonsense suggestion "use
-   --empty if you want to clear the index".  With "-m", such a request
-   will still fail anyway, as you'd need to name at least one tree-ish
-   to be merged.
-
- * The codepath in "git am" that is used when running "git rebase"
-   leaked memory held for the log message of the commits being rebased.
-
- * "pack-objects" can stream a slice of an existing packfile out when
-   the pack bitmap can tell that the reachable objects are all needed
-   in the output, without inspecting individual objects.  This
-   strategy however would not work well when "--local" and other
-   options are in use, and need to be disabled.
-
- * Clarify documentation for include.path and includeIf.<condition>.path
-   configuration variables.
-
- * Tag objects, which are not reachable from any ref, that point at
-   missing objects were mishandled by "git gc" and friends (they
-   should silently be ignored instead)
-
- * A few http:// links that are redirected to https:// in the
-   documentation have been updated to https:// links.
-
- * Make sure our tests would pass when the sources are checked out
-   with "platform native" line ending convention by default on
-   Windows.  Some "text" files out tests use and the test scripts
-   themselves that are meant to be run with /bin/sh, ought to be
-   checked out with eol=LF even on Windows.
-
- * Fix memory leaks pointed out by Coverity (and people).
-
- * The receive-pack program now makes sure that the push certificate
-   records the same set of push options used for pushing.
-
- * "git cherry-pick" and other uses of the sequencer machinery
-   mishandled a trailer block whose last line is an incomplete line.
-   This has been fixed so that an additional sign-off etc. are added
-   after completing the existing incomplete line.
-
- * The shell completion script (in contrib/) learned "git stash" has
-   a new "push" subcommand.
-
- * Travis CI gained a task to format the documentation with both
-   AsciiDoc and AsciiDoctor.
-
- * Update the C style recommendation for notes for translators, as
-   recent versions of gettext tools can work with our style of
-   multi-line comments.
-
- * "git clone --config var=val" is a way to populate the
-   per-repository configuration file of the new repository, but it did
-   not work well when val is an empty string.  This has been fixed.
-
- * A few codepaths in "checkout" and "am" working on an unborn branch
-   tried to access an uninitialized piece of memory.
-
- * "git for-each-ref --format=..." with %(HEAD) in the format used to
-   resolve the HEAD symref as many times as it had processed refs,
-   which was wasteful, and "git branch" shared the same problem.
-
- * "git interpret-trailers", when used as GIT_EDITOR for "git commit
-   -v", looked for and appended to a trailer block at the very end,
-   i.e. at the end of the "diff" output.  The command has been
-   corrected to pay attention to the cut-mark line "commit -v" adds to
-   the buffer---the real trailer block should appear just before it.
-
- * A test allowed both "git push" and "git receive-pack" on the other
-   end write their traces into the same file.  This is OK on platforms
-   that allows atomically appending to a file opened with O_APPEND,
-   but on other platforms led to a mangled output, causing
-   intermittent test failures.  This has been fixed by disabling
-   traces from "receive-pack" in the test.
-
- * "foo\bar\baz" in "git fetch foo\bar\baz", even though there is no
-   slashes in it, cannot be a nickname for a remote on Windows, as
-   that is likely to be a pathname on a local filesystem.
-
- * The "collision detecting" SHA-1 implementation shipped with 2.13
-   was quite broken on some big-endian platforms and/or platforms that
-   do not like unaligned fetches.  Update to the upstream code which
-   has already fixed these issues.
-
- * "git am -h" triggered a BUG().
-
- * The interaction of "url.*.insteadOf" and custom URL scheme's
-   whitelisting is now documented better.
-
-Also contains various documentation updates and code clean-ups.
