* A test that unconditionally used "mktemp" learned that the command
is not necessarily available everywhere.
+ * "git blame file" allowed the lineage of lines in the uncommitted,
+ unadded contents of "file" to be inspected, but it refused when
+ "file" did not appear in the current commit. When "file" was
+ created by renaming an existing file (but the change has not been
+ committed), this restriction was unnecessarily tight.
+
+ * "git add -N dir/file && git write-tree" produced an incorrect tree
+ when there are other paths in the same directory that sorts after
+ "file".
+
+ * "git fetch http://user:pass@host/repo..." scrubbed the userinfo
+ part, but "git push" didn't.
+
+ * An age old bug that caused "git diff --ignore-space-at-eol"
+ misbehave has been fixed.
+
+ * "git notes merge" had a code to see if a path exists (and fails if
+ it does) and then open the path for writing (when it doesn't).
+ Replace it with open with O_EXCL.
+
+ * "git pack-objects" and "git index-pack" mostly operate with off_t
+ when talking about the offset of objects in a packfile, but there
+ were a handful of places that used "unsigned long" to hold that
+ value, leading to an unintended truncation.
+
+ * Recent update to "git daemon" tries to enable the socket-level
+ KEEPALIVE, but when it is spawned via inetd, the standard input
+ file descriptor may not necessarily be connected to a socket.
+ Suppress an ENOTSOCK error from setsockopt().
+
+ * Recent FreeBSD stopped making perl available at /usr/bin/perl;
+ switch the default the built-in path to /usr/local/bin/perl on not
+ too ancient FreeBSD releases.
+
Also contains minor documentation updates and code clean-ups.
