* "git archive" can be told to pass the output to gzip compression and
produce "archive.tar.gz".
* "git bisect" can be used in a bare repository (provided if the test
you perform per each iteration does not need a working tree, of
course).
* "git check-attr" can take relative paths from the command line.
* "git check-attr" learned "--all" option to list the attributes for a
given path.
* "git checkout" (both the code to update the files upon checking out a
different branch, the code to checkout specific set of files) learned
to stream the data from object store when possible, without having to

* "git diff" learned "--histogram" option, to use a different diff
generation machinery stolen from jgit, which might give better

updated, and reports the ones with errors at the end.
* "git upload-pack" and "git receive-pack" learned to pretend only a

* "git verify-pack" has been rewritten to use the "index-pack" machinery
that is more efficient in reading objects in packfiles.

Unless otherwise noted, all the fixes in 1.7.6.X maintenance track are
included in this release.
* Error exits from $PAGER were silently ignored.

* "git diff -c/--cc" mishandled a deletion that resolves a conflict, and
