* git-archive can optionally substitute keywords in files marked with
export-subst attribute.

* git-for-each-ref learned %(xxxdate:<dateformat>) syntax to
show the various date fields in different formats.

* git-gc --auto is a low-impact way to automatically run a
variant of git-repack that does not lose unreferenced objects
(read: safer than the usual one) after the user accumulates
too many loose objects.

* git-push has been rewritten in C.

* git-push learned --dry-run option to show what would happen
if a push is run.

* git-remote learned "rm" subcommand.

* git-rebase --interactive mode can now work on detached HEAD.

* git-cvsserver can be run via git-shell.

* git-am and git-rebase are far less verbose.

* git-pull learned to pass --[no-]ff option to underlying git-merge.

* Various Perforce importer updates.
