+* File unlocks are atomic again via rename. Read-only files on Windows are
+  made read-write if necessary.
+
+* Share open packfiles across repositories to share descriptors and mmaps.
+
+* Use a map for the treebuilder, making insertion O(1)
+
+* LF -> CRLF filter refuses to handle mixed-EOL files
+
+* LF -> CRLF filter now runs when * text = auto (with Git for Windows 1.9.4)
+
+* The git_remote_set_transport function now sets a transport factory function,
+  rather than a pre-existing transport instance.
+
+* A factory function for ssh has been added which allows to change the
+  path of the programs to execute for receive-pack and upload-pack on
+  the server, git_transport_ssh_with_paths.
+
+* The git_clone_options struct no longer provides the ignore_cert_errors or
+  remote_name members for remote customization.
+
+  Instead, the git_clone_options struct has two new members, remote_cb and
+  remote_cb_payload, which allow the caller to completely override the remote
+  creation process. If needed, the caller can use this callback to give their
+  remote a name other than the default (origin) or disable cert checking.
+
+  The remote_callbacks member has been preserved for convenience, although it
+  is not used when a remote creation callback is supplied.
+
+* The git_clone_options struct now provides repository_cb and
+  repository_cb_payload to allow the user to create a repository with
+  custom options.
+
+* git_clone_into and git_clone_local_into have been removed from the
+  public API in favour of git_clone callbacks
+
+* Add support for refspecs with the asterisk in the middle of a
+  pattern.

+## Libgit2 Versions
+
+The `master` branch is the main branch where development happens.
+Releases are tagged
+(e.g. [v0.21.0](https://github.com/libgit2/libgit2/releases/tag/v0.21.0) )
+and when a critical bug fix needs to be backported, it will be done on a

 your bug report.  This can either be a tag (e.g.

+   information on the input and output such as totals and check values.
+
+   in() should return zero on failure.  out() should return non-zero on
+   failure.  If either in() or out() fails, than inflateBack() returns a
