description of the branch you were on before switching to the
current branch.
* "git merge-tree --stdin" is a new way to request a series of merges
and report the merge results.
* "git shortlog" learned to group by the "format" string.
* A new "--include-whitespace" option is added to "git patch-id", and
existing bugs in the internal patch-id logic that did not match
what "git patch-id" produces have been corrected.

* Rewrite a deep recursion in the skipping negotiator to use a loop
with on-heap prio queue to avoid stack wastage.
* Add documentation for message IDs in fsck error messages.
* Define the logical elements of a "bundle list", data structure to
store them in-core, format to transfer them, and code to parse
them.
* The role the security mailing list plays in an embargoed release
has been documented.
* Two new facilities, "timer" and "counter", are introduced to the
trace2 API.
* Code simplification by using strvec_pushf() instead of building an
argument in a separate strbuf.
* Make sure generated dependency file is stably sorted to help
developers debugging their build issues.

* "git branch --edit-description" can exit with status -1 which is
not a good practice; it learned to use 1 as everybody else instead.
* "git apply" limits its input to a bit less than 1 GiB.
* Merging a branch with directory renames into a branch that changes
the directory to a symlink was mishandled by the ort merge
strategy, which has been corrected.
* A bugfix to "git subtree" in its split and merge features.
* Fix some bugs in the reflog messages when rebasing and changes the
reflog messages of "rebase --apply" to match "rebase --merge" with
the aim of making the reflog easier to parse.
* "git rebase --keep-base" used to discard the commits that are
already cherry-picked to the upstream, even when "keep-base" meant
that the base, on top of which the history is being rebuilt, does
not yet include these cherry-picked commits. The --keep-base
option now implies --reapply-cherry-picks and --no-fork-point
options.
* The way "git repack" creared temporary files when it received a
signal was prone to deadlocking, which has been corrected.
* Other code cleanup, docfix, build fix, etc.
