+
  * "git fsck" by default checks the packfiles (i.e. "--full" is the
    default); you can turn it off with "git fsck --no-full".
 
+ * import-tars contributed fast-import frontend learned more types of

+ * "git instaweb" knows how to talk with mod_cgid to apache2.
+
  * "git log --decorate" shows the location of HEAD as well.
 
+ * "git rebase -i" learned "reword" that acts like "edit" but immediately
+   starts an editor to tweak the log message without returning control to
+   the shell, which is done by "edit" to give an opportunity to tweak the
+   contents.
+
+ * Author names shown in gitweb output are links to search commits by the
