+GIT v1.6.6 Release Notes
+========================
+
+In git 1.7.0, which is planned to be the release after 1.6.6, "git
+push" into a branch that is currently checked out will be refused by
+default.
+
+You can choose what should happen upon such a push by setting the
+configuration variable receive.denyCurrentBranch in the receiving
+repository.
+
+Also, "git push $there :$killed" to delete the branch $killed in a remote
+repository $there, when $killed branch is the current branch pointed at by
+its HEAD, will be refused by default.
+
+You can choose what should happen upon such a push by setting the
+configuration variable receive.denyDeleteCurrent in the receiving
+repository.
+
+To ease the transition plan, the receiving repository of such a
+push running this release will issue a big warning when the
+configuration variable is missing.  Please refer to:
+
+  http://git.or.cz/gitwiki/GitFaq#non-bare
+  http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.version-control.git/107758/focus=108007
+
+for more details on the reason why this change is needed and the
+transition plan.

+
+Fixes since v1.6.5
+------------------
+
+All of the fixes in v1.6.5.X maintenance series are included in this
+release, unless otherwise noted.
+
+ * "git apply" and "git diff" (including patch output from "git log -p")
+   now flags trailing blank lines as whitespace errors correctly (only
+   "apply --whitespace=fix" stripped them but "apply --whitespace=warn"
+   did not even warn).
+
+ * Two whitespace error classes, 'blank-at-eof' and 'blank-at-eol', have
+   been introduced (settable by core.whitespace configuration variable and
+   whitespace attribute).  The 'trailing-space' whitespace error class has
+   become a short-hand to cover both of these and there is no behaviour
+   change for existing set-ups.
