+Git 2.25.2 Release Notes
+========================
+
+Fixes since v2.25.1
+-------------------
+
+ * Minor bugfixes to "git add -i" that has recently been rewritten in C.
+
+ * An earlier update to show the location of working tree in the error
+ message did not consider the possibility that a git command may be
+ run in a bare repository, which has been corrected.
+
+ * The "--recurse-submodules" option of various subcommands did not
+ work well when run in an alternate worktree, which has been
+ corrected.
+
+ * Running "git rm" on a submodule failed unnecessarily when
+ .gitmodules is only cache-dirty, which has been corrected.
+
+ * "git rebase -i" identifies existing commits in its todo file with
+ their abbreviated object name, which could become ambigous as it
+ goes to create new commits, and has a mechanism to avoid ambiguity
+ in the main part of its execution. A few other cases however were
+ not covered by the protection against ambiguity, which has been
+ corrected.
+
+ * The index-pack code now diagnoses a bad input packstream that
+ records the same object twice when it is used as delta base; the
+ code used to declare a software bug when encountering such an
+ input, but it is an input error.
+
+ * The code to automatically shrink the fan-out in the notes tree had
+ an off-by-one bug, which has been killed.
+
+ * "git check-ignore" did not work when the given path is explicitly
+ marked as not ignored with a negative entry in the .gitignore file.
+
+ * The merge-recursive machinery failed to refresh the cache entry for
+ a merge result in a couple of places, resulting in an unnecessary
+ merge failure, which has been fixed.
+
+ * Fix for a bug revealed by a recent change to make the protocol v2
+ the default.
+
+ * "git merge signed-tag" while lacking the public key started to say
+ "No signature", which was utterly wrong. This regression has been
+ reverted.
+
+ * MinGW's poll() emulation has been improved.
+
+ * "git show" and others gave an object name in raw format in its
+ error output, which has been corrected to give it in hex.
+
+ * Both "git ls-remote -h" and "git grep -h" give short usage help,
+ like any other Git subcommand, but it is not unreasonable to expect
+ that the former would behave the same as "git ls-remote --head"
+ (there is no other sensible behaviour for the latter). The
+ documentation has been updated in an attempt to clarify this.
+
+Also contains various documentation updates, code clean-ups and minor fixups.
