* "git submodule update", when recursed into sub-submodules, did not
8+
acccumulate the prefix paths.
9+
10+
* "git am $maildir/" applied messages in an unexpected order; sort
11+
filenames read from the maildir/ in a way that is more likely to
12+
sort messages in the order the writing MUA meant to, by sorting
13+
numeric segment in numeric order and non-numeric segment in
14+
alphabetical order.
15+
16+
* When export-subst is used, "zip" output recorded incorrect
17+
size of the file.
18+
19+
* Some platforms and users spell UTF-8 differently; retry with the
20+
most official "UTF-8" when the system does not understand the
21+
user-supplied encoding name that are the common alternative
22+
spellings of UTF-8.
23+
24+
* "git branch" did not bother to check nonsense command line
25+
parameters and issue errors in many cases.
26+
27+
* "git update-index -h" did not do the usual "-h(elp)" thing.
28+
29+
* perl/Git.pm::cat_blob slurped everything in core only to write it
30+
out to a file descriptor, which was not a very smart thing to do.
31+
32+
* The SSL peer verification done by "git imap-send" did not ask for
33+
Server Name Indication (RFC 4366), failing to connect SSL/TLS
34+
sites that serve multiple hostnames on a single IP.
35+
36+
* "git index-pack" had a buffer-overflow while preparing an
37+
informational message when the translated version of it was too
38+
long.
39+
40+
* Clarify in the documentation "what" gets pushed to "where" when the
41+
command line to "git push" does not say these explicitly.
42+
43+
* In "git reflog expire", REACHABLE bit was not cleared from the
44+
correct objects.
45+

* The "--color=<when>" argument to the commands in the diff family
847
was described poorly.
