+Git v1.7.7 Release Notes
+========================
+
+Updates since v1.7.6
+--------------------
+
+ * The scripting part of the codebase is getting prepared for i18n/l10n.
+
+ * Interix and Cygwin ports got updated.
+
+ * 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 archive" can be told to pass the output to gzip compression and
+ produce "archive.tar.gz".
+
+ * "git checkout" (both the code to update the files upon checking out a
+ different branch, the code to checkout specific set of files) learned
+ to stream the data from object store when possible, without having to
+ read the entire contents of a file in memory first.
+
+ * "git clone" can now take "--config key=value" option to set the
+ repository configuration options that affect the initial checkout.
+
+ * "git diff --stat" learned --stat-count option to limit the output of
+ diffstat report.
+
+ * "git fetch", "git push" and friends no longer show connection
+ errors for addresses that couldn't be connected when at least one
+ address succeeds (this is arguably a regression but a deliberate
+ one).
+
+ * "git grep" learned --break and --heading options, to let users mimic
+ output format of "ack".
+
+ * "git rebase master topci" no longer spews usage hints after giving
+ "fatal: no such branch: topci" error message.
+
+ * "git stash" learned --include-untracked option.
+
+ * "git submodule update" used to stop at the first error updating a
+ submodule; it now goes on to update other submodules that can be
+ updated, and reports the ones with errors at the end.
+
+ * "git verify-pack" has been rewritten to use the "index-pack" machinery
+ that is more efficient in reading objects in packfiles.
+
+ * test scripts for gitweb tried to run even when CGI-related perl modules
+ are not installed; it now exits early when they are unavailable.
+
+Also contains various documentation updates and minor miscellaneous
+changes.
+
+
+Fixes since v1.7.6
+------------------
+
+Unless otherwise noted, all the fixes in 1.7.6.X maintenance track are
+included in this release.
+
+ * "git checkout -b <branch>" sometimes wrote a bogus reflog entry,
+ causing later "git checkout -" fail.
+ (merge 71ee7fd jc/checkout-reflog-fix~1 later).
+
+ * "git diff --cc" learned to correctly ignore binary files.
+ (merge 0508fe5 jk/combine-diff-binary-etc later)
+
+ * "git fetch" did not recurse into submodules in subdirectories.
+ (merge ea2d325 jl/maint-fetch-recursive-fix later)
+
+ * "git rebase -i -p" incorrectly dropped commits from side branches.
+ (merge 12bf828 aw/rebase-i-p later)
+
+ * "git submodule add" did not allow a relative repository path when
+ the superproject did not have any default remote url.
+ (merge f22a17e8 jl/submodule-add-relurl-wo-upstream later)
+
+ * "git submodule foreach" failed to correctly give the standard input to
+ the user-supplied command it invoked.
+ (merge 4dca1aa bc/submodule-foreach-stdin-fix-1.7.4 later)
+
+ * submodules that the user has never showed interest in by running
+ "git submodule init" was incorrectly marked as interesting by "git
+ submodule sync".
+ (merge 2cd9de3 jc/submodule-sync-no-auto-vivify later)
+
+ * "git tag -l <glob>..." did not take multiple glob patterns from the
+ command line.
+ (merge 588d0e8 jk/tag-list-multiple-patterns later)

Use the source ref that matches `master` (e.g. `refs/heads/master`)
to update the ref that matches `satellite/master` (most probably
`refs/remotes/satellite/master`) in the `origin` repository, then
do the same for `dev` and `satellite/dev`.
-git push origin HEAD:master::
+`git push origin HEAD:master`::
Push the current branch to the remote ref matching `master` in the
`origin` repository. This form is convenient to push the current
branch without thinking about its local name.
-git push origin master:refs/heads/experimental::
+`git push origin master:refs/heads/experimental`::
Create the branch `experimental` in the `origin` repository
by copying the current `master` branch. This form is only
needed to create a new branch or tag in the remote repository when
the local name and the remote name are different; otherwise,
the ref name on its own will work.
-git push origin :experimental::
+`git push origin :experimental`::
Find a ref that matches `experimental` in the `origin` repository
(e.g. `refs/heads/experimental`), and delete it.
-git push origin {plus}dev:master::
+`git push origin {plus}dev:master`::
Update the origin repository's master branch with the dev branch,

commits dangling in the origin repository.* Consider the
