* "git repo structure" command learns to report maximum values on
various aspects of objects it inspects.
+ * "git rebase" learns "--trailer" command to drive the
+ interpret-trailers machinery.
+
Performance, Internal Implementation, Development Support etc.
--------------------------------------------------------------
* Reduce dependence on the global the_hash_algo and the_repository
variables of wt-status code path.
+ * The way combined list-object filter options are parsed has been
+ revamped.
+
+ * Editorconfig filename patterns were specified incorrectly, making
+ many source files inside subdirectories unaffected, which has been
+ corrected.
+
+ * The run_command() API lost its implicit dependencyon the singleton
+ `the_repository` instance.
+
+ * The unit test helper function was taught to use backslash +
+ mnemonic notation for certain control characters like "\t", instead
+ of octal notation like "\011".
+
Fixes since v2.53
-----------------
* Plug a few leaks where mmap'ed memory regions are not unmapped.
(merge a8a69bbb64 jk/unleak-mmap later to maint).
+ * A test now uses the symbolic constant $ZERO_OID instead of 40 "0" to
+ work better with SHA-256 as well as SHA-1.
+ (merge 30310f3cc4 ss/t3200-test-zero-oid later to maint).
+
* Other code cleanup, docfix, build fix, etc.
