Fixes since v1.5.6.1
--------------------

* Optimization for a large import via "git-svn" introduced in v1.5.6 had a
serious memory and temporary file leak, which made it unusable for
moderately large import.
* "git clone" from a remote that is named with url.insteadOf setting in
$HOME/.gitconfig did not work well.

* "git-svn" mangled remote nickname used in the configuration file
unnecessarily.
* "git describe --long --tags" segfaulted when the described revision was
tagged with a lightweight tag.

* "git diff --check" did not report the result via its exit status
reliably.

* When remote side used to have branch 'foo' and git-fetch finds that now
it has branch 'foo/bar', it refuses to lose the existing remote tracking
branch and its reflog. The error message has been improved to suggest
pruning the remote if the user wants to proceed and get the latest set
of branches from the remote, including such 'foo/bar'.

* "git reset file" should mean the same thing as "git reset HEAD file",
but we required disambiguating -- even when "file" is not ambiguous.

* "git show" segfaulted when an annotated tag that points at another
annotated tag was given to it.
