+GIT v1.5.1.1 Release Notes (draft)
+==========================
+
+Fixes since v1.5.1
+------------------
+
+* Documentation updates
+
+ - The --left-right option of rev-list and friends is documented.
+
+ - The documentation for cvsimport has been majorly improved.
+
+* Bugfixes
+
+ - "git send-email" produced of References header of unbounded length;
+ fixed this with line-folding.
+
+ - "git archive" to download from remote site should not
+ require you to be in a git repository, but it incorrectly
+ did.
+
+ - "git apply" ignored -p<n> for "diff --git" formatted
+ patches.
+
+ - "git rerere" recorded a conflict that had one side empty
+ (the other side adds) incorrectly; this made merging in the
+ other direction fail to use previously recorded resolution.
+
+ - t4200 test was broken where "wc -l" pads its output with
+ spaces.
+
+ - "git branch -m old new" to rename branch did not work
+ without a configuration file in ".git/config".
+
+ - The sample hook for notification e-mail was misnamed.
+
+ - gitweb did not show type-changing patch correctly in the
+ blobdiff view.
+
+* Performance Tweaks
