+ * core.eol configuration and eol attribute are the new way to control
+   the end of line conventions for files in the working tree;
+   core.autocrlf overrides it, keeping the traditional behaviour by
+   default.
+
  * The whitespace rules used in "git apply --whitespace" and "git diff"
    gained a new member in the family (tab-in-indent) to help projects with
    policy to indent only with spaces.

+ * Usage help messages generated by parse-options library (i.e. most

+
+ * ':/<string>' notation to look for a commit now takes regular expression
+   and it is not anchored at the beginning of the commit log message
+   anymore (this is a backward incompatible change).
+
  * "git" wrapper learned "-c name=value" option to override configuration
    variable from the command line.
 
+ * Improved portability for various platforms including older SunOS,
+   HP-UX 10/11, AIX, Tru64, etc. and platforms with Python 2.4.
+
  * The message from "git am -3" has been improved when conflict
    resolution ended up making the patch a no-op.

  * We didn't URL decode "file:///path/to/repo" correctly when path/to/repo
    had percent-encoded characters (638794c, 9d2e942).
 
+ * "git commit" did not honor GIT_REFLOG_ACTION environment variable, resulting
+   reflog messages for cherry-pick and revert actions to be recorded as "commit".
+
  * "git clone/fetch/pull" issued an incorrect error message when a ref and
    a symref that points to the ref were updated at the same time.  This
    obviously would update them to the same value, and should not result in
-   an error condition (7223dcaf).

  * "git clone" did not configure remote.origin.url correctly for bare
    clones (df61c889).
 
+ * "git diff" inside a tree with many pathnames that have certain
+   characters has become very slow in 1.7.0 by mistake (will merge

+
  * "git diff --graph" works better with "--color-words" and other options
    (81fa024..4297c0a).
 
  * "git diff" could show ambiguous abbreviation of blob object names on
    its "index" line (3e5a188).
 
- * "git merge --log" used to replace the custom message given by "-m" with

-
  * "git reset --hard" started from a wrong directory and a working tree in
    a nonstandard location is in use got confused (560fb6a1).
 
- * "git show -C -C" and other corner cases lost diff metainfo output
-   in 1.7.0 (296c6bb).
