+GIT v1.5.5.1 Release Notes
+==========================
+
+Fixes since v1.5.5
+------------------
+
+ * "git archive --prefix=$path/" mishandled gitattributes.
+
+ * "git fetch -v" that fetches into FETCH_HEAD did not report the summary
+ the same way as done for updating the tracking refs.
+
+ * "git svn" misbehaved when the configuration file customized the "git
+ log" output format using format.pretty.
+
+ * "git submodule status" leaked an unnecessary error message.
+
+ * "git log --date-order --topo-order" did not override the earlier
+ date-order with topo-order as expected.
+
+ * "git bisect good $this" did not check the validity of the revision
+ given properly.
+
+ * "url.<there>.insteadOf" did not work correctly.
+
+ * "git clean" ran inside subdirectory behaved as if the directory was
+ explicitly specified for removal by the end user from the top level.
+
+ * "git bisect" from a detached head leaked an unnecessary error message.
+
+ * "git bisect good $a $b" when $a is Ok but $b is bogus should have
+ atomically failed before marking $a as good.
+
+ * "git fmt-merge-msg" did not clean up leading empty lines from commit
+ log messages like "git log" family does.
+
+ * "git am" recorded a commit with empty Subject: line without
+ complaining.
+
+ * when given a commit log message whose first paragraph consists of
+ multiple lines, "git rebase" squashed it into a single line.
+
+ * "git remote add $bogus_name $url" did not complain properly.
+
+Also comes with various documentation updates.
