* The test scripts for "git p4" (but not "git p4" implementation
71+
itself) has been updated so that they would work even on a system
72+
where the installed version of Python is python 3.
73+
74+
* The "user.useConfigOnly" configuration variable makes it an error
75+
if users do not explicitly set user.name and user.email. However,
76+
its check was not done early enough and allowed another error to
77+
trigger, reporting that the default value we guessed from the
78+
system setting was unusable. This was a suboptimal end-user
79+
experience as we want the users to set user.name/user.email without
80+
relying on the auto-detection at all.
81+
82+
* "git mv old new" did not adjust the path for a submodule that lives
83+
as a subdirectory inside old/ directory correctly.
84+
85+
* "git push" from a corrupt repository that attempts to push a large
86+
number of refs deadlocked; the thread to relay rejection notices
87+
for these ref updates blocked on writing them to the main thread,
88+
after the main thread at the receiving end notices that the push
89+
failed and decides not to read these notices and return a failure.
90+
91+
* A question by "git send-email" to ask the identity of the sender
92+
has been updated.
93+
94+
* Recent update to Git LFS broke "git p4" by changing the output from
95+
its "lfs pointer" subcommand.
96+
97+
* Some multi-byte encoding can have a backslash byte as a later part
98+
of one letter, which would confuse "highlight" filter used in
99+
gitweb.
