+Git v1.8.2 Release Notes
+========================
+
+Backward compatibility notes
+----------------------------
+
+In the upcoming major release (tentatively called 1.8.2), we will
+change the behavior of the "git push" command.
+
+When "git push [$there]" does not say what to push, we have used the
+traditional "matching" semantics so far (all your branches were sent
+to the remote as long as there already are branches of the same name
+over there).  We will use the "simple" semantics that pushes the
+current branch to the branch with the same name, only when the current
+branch is set to integrate with that remote branch.  There is a user
+preference configuration variable "push.default" to change this.
+
+
+Updates since v1.8.1

+
+
+Fixes since v1.8.1
+------------------
+
+Unless otherwise noted, all the fixes since v1.8.1 in the maintenance
+track are contained in this release (see release notes to them for
+details).
+
+ * An element on GIT_CEILING_DIRECTORIES list that does not name the
+   real path to a directory (i.e. a symbolic link) could have caused
+   the GIT_DIR discovery logic to escape the ceiling.
+   (merge 059b379 mh/ceiling later to maint).
+
+ * t4014, t9502 and t0200 tests had various portability issues that
+   broke on OpenBSD.
+   (merge 27f6342 jc/maint-test-portability later to maint).
+
+ * t9020 and t3600 tests had various portability issues.
+   (merge 5a02966 jc/test-portability later to maint).
+
+ * t9200 runs "cvs init" on a directory that already exists, but a
+   platform can configure this fail for the current user (e.g. you
+   need to be in the cvsadmin group on NetBSD 6.0).
+   (merge 8666df0 jc/test-cvs-no-init-in-existing-dir later to maint).
+
+ * After failing to create a temporary file using mkstemp(), failing
+   pathname was not reported correctly on some platforms.
+   (merge f7be59b jc/mkstemp-more-careful-error-reporting later to maint).
+
+ * The way "git svn" asked for password using SSH_ASKPASS and
+   GIT_ASKPASS was not in line with the rest of the system.
+   (merge e9263e4 ss/svn-prompt later to maint).
+
+ * The --graph code fell into infinite loop when asked to do what the
+   code did not expect.
+   (merge 656197a mk/maint-graph-infinity-loop later to maint).
+
+ * http transport was wrong to ask for the username when the
+   authentication is done by certificate identity.
+   (merge 75e9a40 rb/http-cert-cred-no-username-prompt later to maint).
+
+ * "git pack-refs" that ran in parallel to another process that
+   created new refs had a nasty race.
+   (merge b3f1280 jk/repack-ref-racefix later to maint).
+
+ * After "git add -N" and then writing a tree object out of the
+   index, the cache-tree data structure got corrupted.
+   (merge eec3e7e nd/invalidate-i-t-a-cache-tree later to maint).
+
+ * "gitweb", when sorting by age to show repositories with new
+   activities first, used to sort repositories with absolutely
+   nothing in it early, which was not very useful.
+   (merge 28dae18 md/gitweb-sort-by-age later to maint).
+
+ * When a line to be wrapped has a solid run of non space characters
+   whose length exactly is the wrap width, "git shortlog -w" failed
+   to add a newline after such a line.
+   (merge e0db176 sp/shortlog-missing-lf later to maint).
+
+ * Some shells do not behave correctly when IFS is unset; work it
+   around by explicitly setting it to the default value.
+   (merge 393050c jc/maint-fbsd-sh-ifs-workaround later to maint).
