+Git v1.7.6.5 Release Notes
+==========================
+
+Fixes since v1.7.6.4
+--------------------
+
+ * The date parser did not accept timezone designators that lack minutes
+ part and also has a colon between "hh:mm".
+
+ * After fetching from a remote that has very long refname, the reporting
+ output could have corrupted by overrunning a static buffer.
+
+ * "git mergetool" did not use its arguments as pathspec, but as a path to
+ the file that may not even have any conflict.
+
+ * "git name-rev --all" tried to name all _objects_, naturally failing to
+ describe many blobs and trees, instead of showing only commits as
+ advertised in its documentation.
+
+ * "git remote rename $a $b" were not careful to match the remote name
+ against $a (i.e. source side of the remote nickname).
+
+ * "gitweb" used to produce a non-working link while showing the contents
+ of a blob, when JavaScript actions are enabled.
+
+Also contains minor fixes and documentation updates.

+Git v1.7.7.4 Release Notes
+==========================
+
+Fixes since v1.7.7.3
+--------------------
+
+ * A few header dependencies were missing from the Makefile.
+
+ * Some newer parts of the code used C99 __VA_ARGS__ while we still
+ try to cater to older compilers.
+
+ * "git name-rev --all" tried to name all _objects_, naturally failing to
+ describe many blobs and trees, instead of showing only commits as
+ advertised in its documentation.

+Git v1.7.8.1 Release Notes
+==========================
+
+Fixes since v1.7.8
+------------------
+
+ * In some codepaths (notably, checkout and merge), the ignore patterns
+ recorded in $GIT_DIR/info/exclude were not honored. They now are.
+
+ * "git apply --check" did not error out when given an empty input
+ without any patch.
+
+ * "git archive" mistakenly allowed remote clients to ask for commits
+ that are not at the tip of any ref.
+
+ * "git checkout" and "git merge" treated in-tree .gitignore and exclude
+ file in $GIT_DIR/info/ directory inconsistently when deciding which
+ untracked files are ignored and expendable.
+
+ * LF-to-CRLF streaming filter used when checking out a large-ish blob
+ fell into an infinite loop with a rare input.
+
+ * The function header pattern for files with "diff=cpp" attribute did
+ not consider "type *funcname(type param1,..." as the beginning of a
+ function.
+
+ * The error message from "git diff" and "git status" when they fail
+ to inspect changes in submodules did not report which submodule they
+ had trouble with.
+
+ * After fetching from a remote that has very long refname, the reporting
+ output could have corrupted by overrunning a static buffer.
+
+ * "git pack-objects" avoids creating cyclic dependencies among deltas
+ when seeing a broken packfile that records the same object in both
+ the deflated form and as a delta.
+
+Also contains minor fixes and documentation updates.
