* The shell completion script (in contrib/) learned "git stash" has
a new "push" subcommand.
+ * Travis CI gained a task to format the documentation with both
+ AsciiDoc and AsciiDoctor.
+
+ * Update the C style recommendation for notes for translators, as
+ recent versions of gettext tools can work with our style of
+ multi-line comments.
+
+ * "git clone --config var=val" is a way to populate the
+ per-repository configuration file of the new repository, but it did
+ not work well when val is an empty string. This has been fixed.
+
+ * A few codepaths in "checkout" and "am" working on an unborn branch
+ tried to access an uninitialized piece of memory.
+
+ * "git for-each-ref --format=..." with %(HEAD) in the format used to
+ resolve the HEAD symref as many times as it had processed refs,
+ which was wasteful, and "git branch" shared the same problem.
+
+ * "git interpret-trailers", when used as GIT_EDITOR for "git commit
+ -v", looked for and appended to a trailer block at the very end,
+ i.e. at the end of the "diff" output. The command has been
+ corrected to pay attention to the cut-mark line "commit -v" adds to
+ the buffer---the real trailer block should appear just before it.
+
+ * A test allowed both "git push" and "git receive-pack" on the other
+ end write their traces into the same file. This is OK on platforms
+ that allows atomically appending to a file opened with O_APPEND,
+ but on other platforms led to a mangled output, causing
+ intermittent test failures. This has been fixed by disabling
+ traces from "receive-pack" in the test.
+
+ * "foo\bar\baz" in "git fetch foo\bar\baz", even though there is no
+ slashes in it, cannot be a nickname for a remote on Windows, as
+ that is likely to be a pathname on a local filesystem.
+
+ * The "collision detecting" SHA-1 implementation shipped with 2.13
+ was quite broken on some big-endian platforms and/or platforms that
+ do not like unaligned fetches. Update to the upstream code which
+ has already fixed these issues.
+
+ * "git am -h" triggered a BUG().
+
+ * The interaction of "url.*.insteadOf" and custom URL scheme's
+ whitelisting is now documented better.
