4 Fixes since v1.6.6

7 * "git blame" did not work well when commit lacked the author name.
8
9 * "git branch -a name" wasn't diagnosed as an error.
10
11 * "git count-objects" did not handle packfiles that are bigger than 4G on
12 platforms with 32-bit off_t.

18 commit.

27
28 * "git reset --hard" did not work correctly when GIT_WORK_TREE environment
29 variable is used to point at the root of the true work tree.
30
31 * http-backend was not listed in the command list in the documentation.
32
33 * Building on FreeBSD (both 7 and 8) needs OLD_ICONV set in the Makefile
