+Git v1.7.6.6 Release Notes
+==========================
+
+Fixes since v1.7.6.5
+--------------------
+
+ * The code to look up attributes for paths reused entries from a wrong
+ directory when two paths in question are in adjacent directories and
+ the name of the one directory is a prefix of the other.
+
+ * When producing a "thin pack" (primarily used in bundles and smart
+ HTTP transfers) out of a fully packed repository, we unnecessarily
+ avoided sending recent objects as a delta against objects we know
+ the other side has.
+
+Also contains minor fixes and documentation updates.

+==========================
+
+Fixes since v1.7.8.4
+--------------------
+
+ * Dependency on our thread-utils.h header file was missing for
+ objects that depend on it in the Makefile.
+
+ * "git am" when fed an empty file did not correctly finish reading it
+ when it attempts to guess the input format.
+
+ * "git grep -P" (when PCRE is enabled in the build) did not match the
+ beginning and the end of the line correctly with ^ and $.
+
+ * "git rebase -m" tried to run "git notes copy" needlessly when
+ nothing was rewritten.
+
+Also contains minor fixes and documentation updates.
