-Git v2.14.2 Release Notes
-=========================
-
-Fixes since v2.14.1
--------------------
-
- * Because recent Git for Windows do come with a real msgfmt, the
-   build procedure for git-gui has been updated to use it instead of a
-   hand-rolled substitute.
-
- * "%C(color name)" in the pretty print format always produced ANSI
-   color escape codes, which was an early design mistake.  They now
-   honor the configuration (e.g. "color.ui = never") and also tty-ness
-   of the output medium.
-
- * The http.{sslkey,sslCert} configuration variables are to be
-   interpreted as a pathname that honors "~[username]/" prefix, but
-   weren't, which has been fixed.
-
- * Numerous bugs in walking of reflogs via "log -g" and friends have
-   been fixed.
-
- * "git commit" when seeing an totally empty message said "you did not
-   edit the message", which is clearly wrong.  The message has been
-   corrected.
-
- * When a directory is not readable, "gitweb" fails to build the
-   project list.  Work this around by skipping such a directory.
-
- * A recently added test for the "credential-cache" helper revealed
-   that EOF detection done around the time the connection to the cache
-   daemon is torn down were flaky.  This was fixed by reacting to
-   ECONNRESET and behaving as if we got an EOF.
-
- * Some versions of GnuPG fail to kill gpg-agent it auto-spawned
-   and such a left-over agent can interfere with a test.  Work it
-   around by attempting to kill one before starting a new test.
-
- * "git log --tag=no-such-tag" showed log starting from HEAD, which
-   has been fixed---it now shows nothing.
-
- * The "tag.pager" configuration variable was useless for those who
-   actually create tag objects, as it interfered with the use of an
-   editor.  A new mechanism has been introduced for commands to enable
-   pager depending on what operation is being carried out to fix this,
-   and then "git tag -l" is made to run pager by default.
-
- * "git push --recurse-submodules $there HEAD:$target" was not
-   propagated down to the submodules, but now it is.
-
- * Commands like "git rebase" accepted the --rerere-autoupdate option
-   from the command line, but did not always use it.  This has been
-   fixed.
-
- * "git clone --recurse-submodules --quiet" did not pass the quiet
-   option down to submodules.
-
- * "git am -s" has been taught that some input may end with a trailer
-   block that is not Signed-off-by: and it should refrain from adding
-   an extra blank line before adding a new sign-off in such a case.
-
- * "git svn" used with "--localtime" option did not compute the tz
-   offset for the timestamp in question and instead always used the
-   current time, which has been corrected.
-
- * Memory leaks in a few error codepaths have been plugged.
-
- * bash 4.4 or newer gave a warning on NUL byte in command
-   substitution done in "git stash"; this has been squelched.
-
- * "git grep -L" and "git grep --quiet -L" reported different exit
-   codes; this has been corrected.
-
- * When handshake with a subprocess filter notices that the process
-   asked for an unknown capability, Git did not report what program
-   the offending subprocess was running.  This has been corrected.
-
- * "git apply" that is used as a better "patch -p1" failed to apply a
-   taken from a file with CRLF line endings to a file with CRLF line
-   endings.  The root cause was because it misused convert_to_git()
-   that tried to do "safe-crlf" processing by looking at the index
-   entry at the same path, which is a nonsense---in that mode, "apply"
-   is not working on the data in (or derived from) the index at all.
-   This has been fixed.
-
- * Killing "git merge --edit" before the editor returns control left
-   the repository in a state with MERGE_MSG but without MERGE_HEAD,
-   which incorrectly tells the subsequent "git commit" that there was
-   a squash merge in progress.  This has been fixed.
-
- * "git archive" did not work well with pathspecs and the
-   export-ignore attribute.
-
- * "git cvsserver" no longer is invoked by "git daemon" by default,
-   as it is old and largely unmaintained.
-
- * Various Perl scripts did not use safe_pipe_capture() instead of
-   backticks, leaving them susceptible to end-user input.  They have
-   been corrected.
-
-Also contains various documentation updates and code clean-ups.
-
-Credits go to joernchen <joernchen@phenoelit.de> for finding the
-unsafe constructs in "git cvsserver", and to Jeff King at GitHub for
-finding and fixing instances of the same issue in other scripts.
