GIT v1.5.4 Release Notes
========================
Updates since v1.5.3
--------------------
* Comes with much improved gitk.
* git-reset is now built-in.
* git-send-email can optionally talk over ssmtp and use SMTP-AUTH.
* git-rebase learned --whitespace option.
* git-remote knows --mirror mode.
* git-merge can call the "post-merge" hook.
* git-pack-objects can optionally run deltification with multiple threads.
* git-archive can optionally substitute keywords in files marked with
export-subst attribute.
* git-for-each-ref learned %(xxxdate:<dateformat>) syntax to
show the various date fields in different formats.
* git-gc --auto is a low-impact way to automatically run a
variant of git-repack that does not lose unreferenced objects
(read: safer than the usual one) after the user accumulates
too many loose objects.
* git-push has been rewritten in C.
* git-push learned --dry-run option to show what would happen
if a push is run.
* git-remote learned "rm" subcommand.
* git-rebase --interactive mode can now work on detached HEAD.
* git-cvsserver can be run via git-shell.
* git-am and git-rebase are far less verbose.
* git-pull learned to pass --[no-]ff option to underlying git-merge.
* Various Perforce importer updates.
