* Output from "git log --graph" works better with submodule log
output now.

* "git count-objects -v" learned to report leftover temporary
packfiles and other garbage in the object store.

* Perl scripts like "git-svn" closed (not redirecting to /dev/null)
the standard error stream, which is not a very smart thing to do.
Later open may return file descriptor #2 for unrelated purpose, and
error reporting code may write into them.

* "git show-branch" was not prepared to show a very long run of
ancestor operators e.g. foobar^2~2^2^2^2...^2~4 correctly.

* "git diff --diff-algorithm algo" is also understood as "git diff
--diff-algorithm=algo".

* "git bundle" did not like a bundle created using a commit without
any message as its one of the prerequistes.

* "git log -S/-G" started paying attention to textconv filter, but
there was no way to disable this. Make it honor --no-textconv
option.
