Git 2.28 Release Notes
======================
Updates since v2.27
-------------------
Backward compatibility notes
* "feature.experimental" configuration variable is to let volunteers
easily opt into a set of newer features, which use of the v2
transport protocol is now a part of.
UI, Workflows & Features
* The commands in the "diff" family learned to honor "diff.relative"
configuration variable.
Performance, Internal Implementation, Development Support etc.
* Code optimization for a common case.
(merge 8777616e4d an/merge-single-strategy-optim later to maint).
* We've adopted a convention that any on-stack structure can be
initialized to have zero values in all fields with "= { 0 }",
even when the first field happens to be a pointer, but sparse
complained that a null pointer should be spelled NULL for a long
time. Start using -Wno-universal-initializer option to squelch
it (the latest sparse has it on by default).
Fixes since v2.27
-----------------
* The "--prepare-p4-only" option of "git p4" is supposed to stop
after replaying one changeset, but kept going (by mistake?)
* The error message from "git checkout -b foo -t bar baz" was
confusing.
* Some repositories in the wild have commits that record nonsense
committer timezone (e.g. rails.git); "git fast-import" learned an
option to pass these nonsense timestamps intact to allow recreating
existing repositories as-is.
(merge d42a2fb72f en/fast-import-looser-date later to maint).
* Other code cleanup, docfix, build fix, etc.
(merge 2c31a7aa44 jx/pkt-line-doc-count-fix later to maint).
(merge d63ae31962 cb/t5608-cleanup later to maint).
