"git merge" command if you know everybody who uses your script has
Git v1.7.8 or newer.

* The "--binary/-b" options to "git am" have been a no-op for quite a
while and was deprecated in mid 2008 (v1.6.0). When you give these
options to "git am", it will now fail with an error.

* Project search in "gitweb" shows the substring that matched in the

* "git bundle" did not record boundary commits correctly when there
are many of them.
(merge efe4be1 tr/maint-bundle-boundary later to maint).

* "git diff-index" and its friends at the plumbing level showed the
"diff --git" header and nothing else for a path whose cached stat
info is dirty without actual difference when asked to produce a
patch. This was a longstanding bug that we could have fixed long
time ago.

* The code to synthesize the fake ancestor tree used by 3-way merge
fallback in "git am" was not prepared to read a patch created with
a non-standard -p<num> value.

* "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

* "gitweb" did use quotemeta() to prepare search string when asked to
do a fixed-string project search, but did not use it by mistake and
used the user-supplied string instead.
