To name a commit, you can now say
$ git rev-parse ':/Initial revision of "git"'
and it will return the hash of the youngest commit whose
commit message (the oneline) begins with the given prefix.
For future extension, a leading exclamation mark is treated
specially: if you want to match a commit message starting with
a '!', just repeat the exclamation mark. So, to match a commit
which starts with '!Hello World', use
$ git show ':/!!Hello World'

The intent of the commit 'fetch & clone: do not output progress when
not on a tty' was to make fetching and cloning less chatty when
output was not redirected (such as in a cron job).
However, there was a serious thinko in that commit. It assumed that
the client _and_ the server got this update at the same time. But
this is obviously not the case, and therefore upload-pack died on
seeing the option "--no-progress".
This patch fixes that issue by making it a protocol option. So, until
your server is updated, you still see the progress, but once the
server has this patch, it will be quiet.
A minor issue was also fixed: when cloning, the checkout did not
heed no_progress.

Since the options that affect the way metadata is handled in
git-svn, should be consistently set/unset throughout history
imported by git-svn; it makes sense to allow the user to set
certain options from the command-line that will write to the
config file when initially creating the repository.
Also, fix some formatting issues while we're updating
documentation.

Some workflows require use of repositories on machines that cannot be
connected, preventing use of git-fetch / git-push to transport objects and
references between the repositories.
git-bundle provides an alternate transport mechanism, effectively allowing
git-fetch and git-pull to operate using sneakernet transport. `git-bundle
create` allows the user to create a bundle containing one or more branches
or tags, but with specified basis assumed to exist on the target
repository. At the receiving end, git-bundle acts like git-fetch-pack,
allowing the user to invoke git-fetch or git-pull using the bundle file as
the URL. git-fetch and git-ls-remote determine they have a bundle URL by
checking that the URL points to a file, but are otherwise unchanged in
operation with bundles.
The original patch was done by Mark Levedahl <mdl123@verizon.net>.
It was updated to make git-bundle a builtin, and get rid of the tar
format: now, the first line is supposed to say "# v2 git bundle", the next
lines either contain a prerequisite ("-" followed by the hash of the
needed commit), or a ref (the hash of a commit, followed by the name of
the ref), and finally the pack. As a result, the bundle argument can be
"-" now.

With this flag and given two paths, git-diff-files behaves as a GNU diff
lookalike (plus the git goodies like --check, colour, etc.). This flag
is also available in git-diff. It also works outside of a git repository.
In addition, if git-diff{,-files} is called without revision or stage
parameter, and with exactly two paths at least one of which is not tracked,
the default is --no-index.
So, you can now say
git diff /etc/inittab /etc/fstab
and it actually works!
This also unifies the duplicated argument parsing between cmd_diff_files()
and builtin_diff_files().

In response to a feature request from Shawn Pearce, this patch allows
a user to update a named group of remotes by using "git remote update
<group>", where the group is defined in the config file by
remotes.<group>. The default if the named group is not specified is
now fetched group remotes.default, instead of remote.fetch, which is
what had been previously used.
In addition, if remotes.default is not defined, all remotes defined in
the config file will be used, as before, but there is now also
possible to request that a particular repository to be skipped by
default by using the boolean configuration parameter
remote.<name>.skipDefaultUpdate.
