Git 2.32 Release Notes
======================
Backward compatibility notes
----------------------------
* ".gitattributes", ".gitignore", and ".mailmap" files that are
symbolic links are ignored.
Updates since v2.32
-------------------
Backward incompatible and other important changes
UI, Workflows & Features
* It does not make sense to make ".gitattributes", ".gitignore" and
".mailmap" symlinks, as they are supposed to be usable from the
object store (think: bare repositories where HEAD:.mailmap etc. are
used). When these files are symbolic links, we used to read the
contents of the files pointed by them by mistake, which has been
corrected.
* "git stash show" learned to optionally show untracked part of the
stash.
* "git log --format='...'" learned "%(describe)" placeholder.
Performance, Internal Implementation, Development Support etc.
* Rename detection rework continues.

which was introduced in 2.29 timeframe.
(merge 93c3d297b5 tb/git-mv-icase-fix later to maint).
* We had a code to diagnose and die cleanly when a required
clean/smudge filter is missing, but an assert before that
unnecessarily fired, hiding the end-user facing die() message.
(merge 6fab35f748 mt/cleanly-die-upon-missing-required-filter later to maint).
* Update C code that sets a few configuration variables when a remote
is configured so that it spells configuration variable names in the
canonical camelCase.
(merge 0f1da600e6 ab/remote-write-config-in-camel-case later to maint).
* A new configuration variable has been introduced to allow choosing
which version of the generation number gets used in the
commit-graph file.
(merge 702110aac6 ds/commit-graph-generation-config later to maint).
* Perf test update to work better in secondary worktrees.
(merge 36e834abc1 jk/perf-in-worktrees later to maint).
* Updates to memory allocation code around the use of pcre2 library.

* "git -c core.bare=false clone --bare ..." would have segfaulted,
which has been corrected.
