+GIT v1.5.5.1 Release Notes
+==========================
+
+Fixes since v1.5.5
+------------------
+
+ * "git archive --prefix=$path/" mishandled gitattributes.
+
+ * "git fetch -v" that fetches into FETCH_HEAD did not report the summary
+ the same way as done for updating the tracking refs.
+
+ * "git svn" misbehaved when the configuration file customized the "git
+ log" output format using format.pretty.
+
+ * "git submodule status" leaked an unnecessary error message.
+
+ * "git log --date-order --topo-order" did not override the earlier
+ date-order with topo-order as expected.
+
+ * "git bisect good $this" did not check the validity of the revision
+ given properly.
+
+ * "url.<there>.insteadOf" did not work correctly.
+
+ * "git clean" ran inside subdirectory behaved as if the directory was
+ explicitly specified for removal by the end user from the top level.
+
+ * "git bisect" from a detached head leaked an unnecessary error message.
+
+ * "git bisect good $a $b" when $a is Ok but $b is bogus should have
+ atomically failed before marking $a as good.
+
+ * "git fmt-merge-msg" did not clean up leading empty lines from commit
+ log messages like "git log" family does.
+
+ * "git am" recorded a commit with empty Subject: line without
+ complaining.
+
+ * when given a commit log message whose first paragraph consists of
+ multiple lines, "git rebase" squashed it into a single line.
+
+ * "git remote add $bogus_name $url" did not complain properly.
+
+Also comes with various documentation updates.

+GIT v1.5.6 Release Notes
+========================
+
+Updates since v1.5.5
+--------------------
+
+(subsystems)
+
+
+(portability)
+
+
+(performance)
+
+* "git rebase --onto $there $from $branch" used to switch to the tip of
+ $branch only to immediately reset back to $from, smudging work tree
+ files unnecessarily. This has been optimized.
+
+(usability, bells and whistles)
+
+* "git add -p" (and the "patch" subcommand of "git add -i") can choose to
+ apply (or not apply) mode changes independently from contents changes.
+
+* "git bisect help" gives longer and more helpful usage information.
+
+* "git diff/log --dirstat" output is consistent between binary and textual
+ changes.
+
+* "git gc --auto" honors a new pre-aut-gc hook to temporarily disable it.
+
+* "git log --pretty=tformat:<custom format>" gives a LF after each entry,
+ instead of giving a LF between each pair of entries which is how
+ "git log --pretty=format:<custom format>" works.
+
+* "git send-email" now can send out messages outside a git repository.
+
+* "git status" can optionally include output from "git submodule
+ summary".
+
+* "gitweb" can read from a system-wide configuration file.
+
+(internal)
+
+* "git unpack-objects" and "git receive-pack" is now more strict about
+ detecting breakage in the objects they receive over the wire.
+
+
+Fixes since v1.5.5
+------------------
+
+All of the fixes in v1.5.5 maintenance series are included in
+this release, unless otherwise noted.

+pre-auto-gc
+-----------
+
+This hook is invoked by `git-gc --auto`. It takes no parameter, and
+exiting with non-zero status from this script causes the `git-gc --auto`
+to abort.
