* Add a new manual that describes the data model.
+ * "git fast-import" learns "--strip-if-invalid" option to drop
+ invalid cryptographic signature from objects.
+
Performance, Internal Implementation, Development Support etc.
--------------------------------------------------------------
* A part of code paths that deals with loose objects has been cleaned
up.
+ * "make strip" has been taught to strip "scalar" as well as "git".
+
+ * Dockerised jobs at the GitHub Actions CI have been taught to show
+ more details of failed tests.
+
+ * Code refactoring around object database sources.
+
Fixes since v2.52
-----------------
* Various issues detected by Asan have been corrected.
(merge a031b6181a jk/asan-bonanza later to maint).
+ * "git config get --path" segfaulted on an ":(optional)path" that
+ does not exist, which has been corrected.
+ (merge 0bd16856ff jc/optional-path later to maint).
+
+ * The "--committer-date-is-author-date" option of "git am/rebase" is
+ a misguided one. The documentation is updated to discourage its
+ use.
+ (merge fbf3d0669f kh/doc-committer-date-is-author-date later to maint).
+
+ * The option help text given by "git config unset -h" described
+ the "--all" option to "replace", not "unset", multiple variables,
+ which has been corrected.
+ (merge 18bf67b753 rs/config-unset-opthelp-fix later to maint).
+
+ * The error message given by "git config set", when the variable
+ being updated has more than one values defined, used old style "git
+ config" syntax with an incorrect option in its hint, both of which
+ have been corrected.
+ (merge df963f0df4 rs/config-set-multi-error-message-fix later to maint).
+
* Other code cleanup, docfix, build fix, etc.
