+GIT v1.5.1.2 Release Notes
+==========================
+
+Fixes since v1.5.1.1
+--------------------
+
+* Bugfixes
+
+ - "git clone" over http from a repository that has lost the
+ loose refs by running "git pack-refs" were broken (a code to
+ deal with this was added to "git fetch" in v1.5.0, but it
+ was missing from "git clone").
+
+ - "git diff a/ b/" incorrectly fell in "diff between two
+ filesystem objects" codepath, when the user most likely
+ wanted to limit the extent of output to two tracked
+ directories.
+
+ - git-quiltimport had the same bug as we fixed for
+ git-applymbox in v1.5.1.1 -- it gave an alarming "did not
+ have any patch" message (but did not actually fail and was
+ harmless).
+
+ - various git-svn fixes.
+
+ - Sample update hook incorrectly always refused requests to
+ delete branches through push.
+
+ - git-blame on a very long working tree path had buffer
+ overrun problem.
+
+ - git-apply did not like to be fed two patches in a row that created
+ and then modified the same file.
+
+ - git-svn was confused when a non-project was stored directly under
+ trunk/, branches/ and tags/.
+
+ - git-svn wants the Error.pm module that was at least as new
+ as what we ship as part of git; install ours in our private
+ installation location if the one on the system is older.
+
+ - An earlier update to command line integer parameter parser was
+ botched and made 'update-index --cacheinfo' completely useless.
+
+
+* Documentation updates
+
+ - Various documentation updates from J. Bruce Fields, Frank
+ Lichtenheld, Alex Riesen and others. Andrew Ruder started a
+ war on undocumented options.
