+Git v1.7.6.1 Release Notes
+==========================
+
+Fixes since v1.7.6
+------------------
+
+ * Various codepaths that invoked zlib deflate/inflate assumed that these
+ functions can compress or uncompress more than 4GB data in one call on
+ platforms with 64-bit long, which has been corrected.
+
+ * "git unexecutable" reported that "unexecutable" was not found, even
+ though the actual error was that "unexecutable" was found but did
+ not have a proper she-bang line to be executed.
+
+ * Error exits from $PAGER were silently ignored.
+
+ * "git checkout -b <branch>" was confused when attempting to create a
+ branch whose name ends with "-g" followed by hexadecimal digits,
+ and refused to work.
+
+ * "git checkout -b <branch>" sometimes wrote a bogus reflog entry,
+ causing later "git checkout -" to fail.
+
+ * "git diff --cc" learned to correctly ignore binary files.
+
+ * "git diff -c/--cc" mishandled a deletion that resolves a conflict, and
+ looked in the working tree instead.
+
+ * "git fast-export" forgot to quote pathnames with unsafe characters
+ in its output.
+
+ * "git fetch" over smart-http transport used to abort when the
+ repository was updated between the initial connection and the
+ subsequent object transfer.
+
+ * "git fetch" did not recurse into submodules in subdirectories.
+
+ * "git ls-tree" did not error out when asked to show a corrupt tree.
+
+ * "git pull" without any argument left an extra whitespace after the
+ command name in its reflog.
+
+ * "git push --quiet" was not really quiet.
+
+ * "git rebase -i -p" incorrectly dropped commits from side branches.
+
+ * "git reset [<commit>] paths..." did not reset the index entry correctly
+ for unmerged paths.
+
+ * "git submodule add" did not allow a relative repository path when
+ the superproject did not have any default remote url.
+
+ * "git submodule foreach" failed to correctly give the standard input to
+ the user-supplied command it invoked.
+
+ * submodules that the user has never showed interest in by running
+ "git submodule init" was incorrectly marked as interesting by "git
+ submodule sync".
+
+ * "git submodule update --quiet" was not really quiet.
+
+ * "git tag -l <glob>..." did not take multiple glob patterns from the
+ command line.

+Git v1.7.6.2 Release Notes
+==========================
+
+Fixes since v1.7.6.1
+--------------------
+
+ * v1.7.6.1 broke "git push --quiet"; it used to be a no-op against an old
+ version of Git running on the other end, but v1.7.6.1 made it abort.

+Git v1.7.6.3 Release Notes
+==========================
+
+Fixes since v1.7.6.2
+--------------------
+
+ * "git -c var=value subcmd" misparsed the custom configuration when
+ value contained an equal sign.
+
+ * "git fetch" had a major performance regression, wasting many
+ needless cycles in a repository where there is no submodules
+ present. This was especially bad, when there were many refs.
+
+ * "git reflog $refname" did not default to the "show" subcommand as
+ the documentation advertised the command to do.
+
+ * "git reset" did not leave meaningful log message in the reflog.
+
+ * "git status --ignored" did not show ignored items when there is no
+ untracked items.
+
+ * "git tag --contains $commit" was unnecessarily inefficient.
+
+Also contains minor fixes and documentation updates.
