* "git peek-remote" is deprecated, as "git ls-remote" was written in C
and works for all transports, and will be removed in the future.

* From v1.5.5, the repack.usedeltabaseoffset config option will default
to true, which will give denser packfile (i.e. more efficient storage).
The downside is that git older than version 1.4.4 will not be able
to directly use a repository packed using this setting.

* From v1.5.5, the pack.indexversion config option will default to 2,
which is slightly more efficient, and makes repacking more immune to
data corruptions. Git older than version 1.5.2 may revert to version 1
of the pack index with a manual "git index-pack" to be able to directly
access corresponding pack files.


Updates since v1.5.3
