+Git v2.4.6 Release Notes
+========================
+
+Fixes since v2.4.5
+------------------
+
+ * "git fetch --depth=<depth>" and "git clone --depth=<depth>" issued
+ a shallow transfer request even to an upload-pack that does not
+ support the capability.
+
+ * "git fsck" used to ignore missing or invalid objects recorded in reflog.
+
+ * The tcsh completion writes a bash scriptlet but that would have
+ failed for users with noclobber set.
+
+ * Recent Mac OS X updates breaks the logic to detect that the machine
+ is on the AC power in the sample pre-auto-gc script.
+
+ * "git format-patch --ignore-if-upstream A..B" did not like to be fed
+ tags as boundary commits.
+
+Also contains typofixes, documentation updates and trivial code
+clean-ups.
