* "git gc --aggressive" learned "--depth" option and
"gc.aggressiveDepth" configuration variable to allow use of a less
insane depth than the built-in default value of 250.

* "git log" learned the "--show-linear-break" option to show where a
single strand-of-pearls is broken in its output.

* The "rev-parse --parseopt" mechanism used by scripted Porcelains to
parse command line options and to give help text learned to take
the argv-help (the placeholder string for an option parameter,

* The compilation options to port to AIX has been updated.

* "git diff --no-index -Mq a b" fell into an infinite loop.
(merge ad1c3fb jc/fix-diff-no-index-diff-opt-parse later to maint).

* "git fetch --prune", when the right-hand-side of multiple fetch
refspecs overlap (e.g. storing "refs/heads/*" to
"refs/remotes/origin/*", while storing "refs/frotz/*" to
"refs/remotes/origin/fr/*"), aggressively thought that lack of
"refs/heads/fr/otz" on the origin site meant we should remove
"refs/remotes/origin/fr/otz" from us, without checking their
"refs/frotz/otz" first.

Note that such a configuration is inherently unsafe (think what
should happen when "refs/heads/fr/otz" does appear on the origin
site), but that is not a reason not to be extra careful.

* "git status --porcelain --branch" showed its output with labels
"ahead/behind/gone" translated to the user's locale.
