* The documentation set has been updated so that literal commands,
28+
configuration variables and environment variables are consistently
29+
typeset in fixed-width font and bold in manpages.
30+
31+
* "git svn propset" subcommand that was added in 2.3 days is
32+
documented now.
33+
34+
* The documentation tries to consistently spell "GPG"; when
35+
referring to the specific program name, "gpg" is used.
36+
37+
* "git reflog" stopped upon seeing an entry that denotes a branch
38+
creation event (aka "unborn"), which made it appear as if the
39+
reflog was truncated.
40+
41+
* The git-prompt scriptlet (in contrib/) was not friendly with those
42+
who uses "set -u", which has been fixed.
43+
44+
* A codepath that used alloca(3) to place an unbounded amount of data
45+
on the stack has been updated to avoid doing so.
46+
47+
* "git update-index --add --chmod=+x file" may be usable as an escape
48+
hatch, but not a friendly thing to force for people who do need to
49+
use it regularly. "git add --chmod=+x file" can be used instead.
50+
51+
* Build improvements for gnome-keyring (in contrib/)
52+
53+
* "git status" used to say "working directory" when it meant "working
54+
tree".
55+
56+
* Comments about misbehaving FreeBSD shells have been clarified with
57+
the version number (9.x and before are broken, newer ones are OK).
58+
59+
* "git cherry-pick A" worked on an unborn branch, but "git
60+
cherry-pick A..B" didn't.
