* Update to more modern HP-UX port.
* The codebase is getting prepared for i18n/l10n; no translated/translatable
strings in the code yet.
* "git apply -v" reports offset lines when the patch does not apply at
the exact location recorded in the diff output.

the server response it never got.
* "git grep -f <filename>" learned to treat "-" as "read from the
standard input stream".
* "git grep --no-index" did not honor pathspecs correctly, returning
paths outside the specified area.
* "git log" type commands now understand globbing pathspecs. You
can say "git log -- '*.txt'" for example.
* "git mergetool" learned how to drive "beyond compare 3" as well.
* "git rerere forget" without pathspec used to forget all the saved
conflicts that relate to the current merge; it now requires you to
give it pathspecs.
* "git rev-list --objects $revs -- $pathspec" now limits the objects listed
in its output properly with the pathspec, in preparation for narrow
clones.

release, unless otherwise noted.
* We used to keep one file descriptor open for each and every packfile
that we have a mmap window on it (read: "in use"), even when for very
tiny packfiles. We now close the file descriptor early when the entire
packfile fits inside one mmap window.
* "git apply" used to confuse lines updated by previous hunks as lines
that existed before when applying a hunk, contributing misapplication
of patches with offsets.

corresponding configuration variables) even for a newly cloned
subproject, which made no sense (so/submodule-no-update-first-time).
