    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.
+
