   4 Fixes since v1.5.0
   5 ------------------
   6
   7 * Documentation updates
   8
   9   - Clarifications and corrections to 1.5.0 release notes.
  10
  11   - The main documentation did not link to git-remote documentation.
  12
  13   - Clarified introductory text of git-rebase documentation.
  14
  15   - Converted remaining mentions of update-index on Porcelain
  16     documents to git-add/git-rm.
  17
  18   - Some i18n.* configuration variables were incorrectly
  19     described as core.*; fixed.
  20
  21 * Bugfixes
  22
  23   - git-add and git-update-index on a filesystem on which
  24     executable bits are unreliable incorrectly reused st_mode
  25     bits even when the path changed between symlink and regular
  26     file.
  27
  28   - git-daemon marks the listening sockets with FD_CLOEXEC so
  29     that it won't be leaked into the children.
  30
  31   - segfault from git-blame when the mandatory pathname
  32     parameter was missing was fixed; usage() message is given
  33     instead.
  34
  35   - git-rev-list did not read $GIT_DIR/config file, which means
  36     that did not honor i18n.logoutputencoding correctly.
  37
  38 * Tweaks
  39
  40   - sliding mmap() inefficiently mmaped the same region of a
  41     packfile with an access pattern that used objects in the
  42     reverse order.  This has been made more efficient.
