  * The internal implementation of "git rebase -i" has been updated to

+ * Performance test framework has been broken and measured the version

+ * Optionally "make coccicheck" can feed multiple source files to

+ * Attempt to use an abbreviated option in "git clone --recurs" is

+   --recurse-submodules, which is bad because these two are synonyms.
+   The parse-options API has been extended to define such synonyms
