Git v1.7.9 Release Notes (draft)
========================
Updates since v1.7.8
--------------------
* Porcelain commands like "git reset" did not distinguish deletions
and type-changes from ordinary modification, and reported them with
the same 'M' moniker. They now use 'D' (for deletion) and 'T' (for
type-change) to match "git status -s" and "git diff --name-status".
* fsck and prune are relatively lengthy operations that still go
silent while making the end-user wait. They learned to give progress
output like other slow operations.
* The set of built-in function-header patterns for various languages
knows MATLAB.
May also contain documentation updates and code clean-ups.
Fixes since v1.7.8
------------------
* In some codepaths (notably, checkout and merge), the ignore patterns
recorded in $GIT_DIR/info/exclude were not honored. They now are.
(merge fc001b5 nd/maint-ignore-exclude later to maint).
