+Git v1.7.6.4 Release Notes
+==========================
+
+Fixes since v1.7.6.3
+--------------------
+
+ * The error reporting logic of "git am" when the command is fed a file
+ whose mail-storage format is unknown was fixed.
+
+ * "git branch --set-upstream @{-1} foo" did not expand @{-1} correctly.
+
+ * "git check-ref-format --print" used to parrot a candidate string that
+ began with a slash (e.g. /refs/heads/master) without stripping it, to make
+ the result a suitably normalized string the caller can append to "$GIT_DIR/".
+
+ * "git clone" failed to clone locally from a ".git" file that itself
+ is not a directory but is a pointer to one.
+
+ * "git clone" from a local repository that borrows from another
+ object store using a relative path in its objects/info/alternates
+ file did not adjust the alternates in the resulting repository.
+
+ * "git describe --dirty" did not refresh the index before checking the
+ state of the working tree files.
+
+ * "git ls-files ../$path" that is run from a subdirectory reported errors
+ incorrectly when there is no such path that matches the given pathspec.
+
+ * "git mergetool" could loop forever prompting when nothing can be read
+ from the standard input.
+
+Also contains minor fixes and documentation updates.

+Git v1.7.7.1 Release Notes
+==========================
+
+Fixes since v1.7.7
+------------------
+
+ * On some BSD systems, adding +s bit on directories is detrimental
+ (it is not necessary on BSD to begin with). "git init --shared"
+ has been updated to take this into account without extra makefile
+ settings on platforms the Makefile knows about.
+
+ * After incorrectly written third-party tools store a tag object in
+ HEAD, git diagnosed it as a repository corruption and refused to
+ proceed in order to avoid spreading the damage. We now gracefully
+ recover from such a situation by pretending as if the commit that
+ is pointed at by the tag were in HEAD.
+
+ * "git apply --whitespace=error" did not bother to report the exact
+ line number in the patch that introduced new blank lines at the end
+ of the file.
+
+ * "git apply --index" did not check corrupted patch.
+
+ * "git checkout $tree $directory/" resurrected paths locally removed or
+ modified only in the working tree in $directory/ that did not appear
+ in $directory of the given $tree. They should have been kept intact.
+
+ * "git diff $tree $path" used to apply the pathspec at the output stage,
+ reading the whole tree, wasting resources.
+
+ * The code to check for updated submodules during a "git fetch" of the
+ superproject had an unnecessary quadratic loop.
+
+ * "git fetch" from a large bundle did not enable the progress output.
+
+ * When "git fsck --lost-and-found" found that an empty blob object in the
+ object store is unreachable, it incorrectly reported an error after
+ writing the lost blob out successfully.
+
+ * "git filter-branch" did not refresh the index before checking that the
+ working tree was clean.
+
+ * "git grep $tree" when run with multiple threads had an unsafe access to
+ the object database that should have been protected with mutex.
+
+ * The "--ancestry-path" option to "git log" and friends misbehaved in a
+ history with complex criss-cross merges and showed an uninteresting
+ side history as well.
+
+ * Test t1304 assumed LOGNAME is always set, which may not be true on
+ some systems.
+
+ * Tests with --valgrind failed to find "mergetool" scriptlets.
+
+ * "git patch-id" miscomputed the patch-id in a patch that has a line longer
+ than 1kB.
+
+ * When an "exec" insn failed after modifying the index and/or the working
+ tree during "rebase -i", we now check and warn that the changes need to
+ be cleaned up.
