* Improved handling of views, labels and branches in git-p4 (in contrib).
* Updated command line arguments completion script for zsh (in contrib).
* "vcs-svn"/"svn-fe" learned to read dumps with svn-deltas and
support incremental imports.

* "git clone" learned to detach the HEAD in the resulting repository
when the source repository's HEAD does not point to a branch.
* The commands in the "git diff" family and "git apply --stat" that
count the number of files changed and the number of lines
inserted/deleted have been updated to match the output from
"diffstat". This also opens the door to i18n this line.
* When showing a patch while ignoring whitespace changes, the context
lines are taken from the postimage, in order to make it easier to
view the output.
* "git grep" pays attention to -diff (hence -binary) attributes now.
* "diff-highlight" filter (in contrib/) was updated to produce more
aesthetically pleasing output.
* "git tag --list" can be given "--points-at <object>" to limit its
output to those that point at the given object.

releases are contained in this release (see release notes to them for
details).
* When you have both .../foo and .../foo.git, "git clone .../foo" did not
favor the former but the latter.
(merge b3256eb jk/git-dir-lookup later to maint).
* Some systems need to explicitly link -lcharset to get locale_charset().
(merge b522528 dp/i18n-libcharset later to maint).
* The output from "git diff --stat" for two paths that have the same
amount of changes showed graph bars of different length due to the
way we handled rounding errors.
(merge 2eeeef2 jc/diff-stat-scaler later to maint).
* We failed to give the true terminal width to any subcommand when
they are invoked with the pager, i.e. "git -p cmd".
(merge ad6c373 zj/term-columns later to maint).
* The transport programs ignored --no-progress and showed progress when
sending their output to a terminal.
(merge 01fdc21 cb/transfer-no-progress later to maint).
* Sometimes error status detected by a check in an earlier phase of
receive-pack (the other end of 'git push') was lost by later
checks, resulting in false indication of success.
(merge ef7e93d cb/receive-pack-keep-errors later to maint).
* t5541 ignored user-supplied port number used for HTTP server testing
(merge d202a51 cb/maint-t5541-make-server-port-portable later to maint).
* "rev-list --verify" sometimes skipped verification depending on the
phase of the moon, which dates back to 1.7.8.x series.
(merge cb8da70 cb/maint-rev-list-verify-object later to maint).
* "gitweb" used to drop warnings in the log file when "heads" view is
accessed in a repository whose HEAD does not point at a valid
branch.
