 * The underlying diff machinery to produce textual output has been
   optimized, which would result in faster "git blame" processing.

 * "git checkout --track origin/hack" used to be a syntax error.  It now
   DWIMs to create a corresponding local branch "hack", i.e. acts as if you
   said "git checkout --track -b hack origin/hack".
 
+* "git cherry-pick" can also utilize rerere for conflict resolution.
+
+* "git commit --author=$name" can look up author name from existing

+* "git count-objects" reports the on-disk footprint for packfiles and

 * "git diff" learned to mimick --suppress-blank-empty from GNU diff via a
   configuration option.
 
+* "git diff" learned to put more sensible hunk headers for Python and

+* "git help" learned to use GIT_MAN_VIEWER environment variable before

 * "git imap-send" can optionally talk SSL.
 
+* "git index-pack" is more careful against disk corruption while

+
+* "git log --check" and "git log --exit-code" passes their underlying diff

+
+* "git log" learned --simplify-merges, a milder variant of --full-history;

+
+* "git merge --squash" and "git merge --no-ff" into an unborn branch are
+  noticed as user errors.
+
+* "git merge -s $strategy" can use a custom built strategy if you have a

+* "git reflog expire branch" can be used in place of "git reflog expire

 All of the fixes in v1.6.0.X maintenance series are included in this
