    lacked an equivalent mechanism to run the "Git-to-outside-world"

+ * Output from "git diff" can be made easier to read by selecting
+   which lines are common and which lines are added/deleted
+   intelligently when the lines before and after the changed section
+   are the same.  A command line option is added to help with the
+   experiment to find a good heuristics.
+
+ * In some projects, it is common to use "[RFC PATCH]" as the subject
+   prefix for a patch meant for discussion rather than application.  A
+   new option "--rfc" was a short-hand for "--subject-prefix=RFC PATCH"
+   to help the participants of such projects.
+
+ * "git add --chmod=+x <pathspec>" added recently only toggled the
+   executable bit for paths that are either new or modified. This has
+   been corrected to flip the executable bit for all paths that match
+   the given pathspec.
+
+ * When "git format-patch --stdout" output is placed as an in-body
+   header and it uses the RFC2822 header folding, "git am" failed to
+   put the header line back into a single logical line.  The
+   underlying "git mailinfo" was taught to handle this properly.

+ * Some codepaths in "git diff" used regexec(3) on a buffer that was
