GIT v1.5.4.2 Release Notes ==========================
Fixes since v1.5.4 ------------------
* The configuration parser was not prepared to see string valued variables misspelled as boolean and segfaulted.
* Temporary files left behind due to interrupted object transfers were not cleaned up with "git prune".
* "git config --unset" was confused when the unset variables were spelled with continuation lines in the config file.
* The merge message detection in "git cvsimport" did not catch a message that began with "Merge...".
* "git status" suggests "git rm --cached" for unstaging the earlier "git add" before the initial commit.
* "git status" output was incorrect during a partial commit.
* "git bisect" refused to start when the HEAD was detached.
* "git bisect" allowed a wildcard character in the commit message expanded while writing its log file.
* Manual pages were not formatted correctly with docbook xsl 1.72; added a workaround.
* "git-commit -C $tag" used to work but rewrite in C done in 1.5.4 broke it. This was fixed in 1.5.4.1.
* An entry in the .gitattributes file that names a pattern in a subdirectory of the directory it is in did not match correctly (e.g. pattern "b/*.c" in "a/.gitattributes" should match "a/b/foo.c" but it didn't). This was fixed in 1.5.4.1.
* Customized color specification was parsed incorrectly when numeric color values are used. This was fixed in 1.5.4.1.
* http transport misbehaved when linked with curl-gnutls.
