* "git fetch --depth=<depth>" and "git clone --depth=<depth>" issued
a shallow transfer request even to an upload-pack that does not
support the capability.
* "git fsck" used to ignore missing or invalid objects recorded in reflog.
* The tcsh completion writes a bash scriptlet but that would have
failed for users with noclobber set.
* Recent Mac OS X updates breaks the logic to detect that the machine
is on the AC power in the sample pre-auto-gc script.
* "git format-patch --ignore-if-upstream A..B" did not like to be fed
tags as boundary commits.
Git is a free and open source distributed version control system
designed to handle everything from small to very large projects with
speed and efficiency.
Git is easy to learn and has a tiny footprint with lightning fast
performance. It outclasses SCM tools like Subversion, CVS, Perforce,
and ClearCase with features like cheap local branching, convenient
staging areas, and multiple workflows.
This package contains only some of the git contrib programs.
