* Error messages given when @{u} is used for a branch without its
upstream configured have been clatified.
* Even with "-q"uiet option, "checkout" used to report setting up
tracking. Also "branch" learned the "-q"uiet option to squelch
informational message.

* The cases "git push" fails due to non-ff can be broken into three
categories; each case is given a separate advise message.
* "git push --recurse-submodules" learned to optionally look into the
histories of submodules bound to the superproject and push them
out.
* A 'snapshot' request to "gitweb" honors If-Modified-Since: header,
based on the commit date.
* "gitweb" learned to highlight the patch it outputs even more.
Foreign Interface
* "git svn" used to die with unwanted SIGPIPE when talking with HTTP
server that uses keep-alive.
* "git p4" has been moved out of contrib/ area.

systems, run-command API now uses SHELL_PATH, not /bin/sh, when
spawning an external command (not applicable to Windows port).
* The API to iterate over refs/ hierarchy has been tweaked to allow
walking only a subset of it more efficiently.
Also contains minor documentation updates and code clean-ups.

releases are contained in this release (see release notes to them for

* The parser in "fast-import" did not diagnose ":9" style references
that is not followed by required SP/LF as an error.
(merge 06454cb pw/fast-import-dataref-parsing later to maint).
* When "git fetch" encounters repositories with too many references,
the command line of "fetch-pack" that is run by a helper
e.g. remote-curl, may fail to hold all of them. Now such an
internal invocation can feed the references through the standard
input of "fetch-pack".
(merge 7103d25 it/fetch-pack-many-refs later to maint).
* "git fetch" that recurses into submodules on demand did not check
if it needs to go into submodules when non branches (most notably,
tags) are fetched.
