subsequent "git diff" will show a diff as if they are creation events.
* "git add" gained a built-in synonym for people who want to say "stage
- changes" instead of "add contents the the staging area" which amounts
+ changes" instead of "add contents to the staging area" which amounts
to the same thing.
* "git apply" learned --include=paths option, similar to the existing
cannot produce a patch that can be applied, so this is disabled in
format-patch among other things).
-* "git diff" hunk header pattern for ObjC has been added.
-
* "--cached" option to "git diff has an easier to remember synonym "--staged",
to ask "what is the difference between the given commit and the
contents staged in the index?"
-* a "textconv" filter that makes binary files textual form for human
- consumption can be specified as an attribute for paths; "git diff"
- learnt to make use of it.
-
* "git for-each-ref" learned "refname:short" token that gives an
unambiguously abbreviated refname.
* "git remote show $remote" lists remote branches one-per-line now.
-* when giving up resolving a conflicted merge, "git reset --hard" failed
- to remove new paths from the working tree. [cherry-pick to 'maint'?]
-
* "git send-email" can be given revision range instead of files and
maildirs on the command line, and automatically runs format-patch to
generate patches for the given revision range.

been resurrected.
-* Giving 3 or more tree-ish to "git diff" is supposed to show the combined

* "git filter-branch" failed to rewrite a tag name with slashes in it.
-* "git repack" used to grab objects out of packs marked with .keep
- into a new pack (fix scheduled to be further downmerged to maint).
-
* "git rm --cached" used to allow an empty blob that was added earlier to
be removed without --force, even when the file in the work tree has
since been modified.
timestamp part, exposing internal implementation detail. Also these did
not work with --fixed-strings match at all.
-* Internal diff machinery had a corner case performance bug that choked on a
- large file with many repeated contents (fix scheduled to be further cherry-

-
* "gitweb" did not mark non-ASCII characters imported from external HTML fragments
correctly.
