2.11 (Nov 2016).
* A hook script that is set unexecutable is simply ignored. Git
notifies when such a file is ignored, unless the message is
squelched via advice.ignoredHook configuration.
* "git pull" has been taught to accept "--[no-]signoff" option and
pass it down to "git merge".
* The "--push-option=<string>" option to "git push" now defaults to a
list of strings configured via push.pushOption variable.
* "gitweb" checks if a directory is searchable with Perl's "-x"
operator, which can be enhanced by using "filetest 'access'"
pragma, which now we do.
* "git stash save" has been deprecated in favour of "git stash push".

on-heap one). Many codepaths have been updated to take advantage
of this new facility.

* Calling cmd_foo() as if it is a general purpose helper function is
a no-no. Correct two instances of such to set an example.

* Optimize the code to find shortest unique prefix of object names.
* Pathspec-limited revision traversal was taught not to keep finding
unneeded differences once it knows two trees are different inside
given pathspec.

such a case, but still call the validation logic for branch names.
