They now show all,\n   in a format that is easier to read.\n\n * \"git clean\" learned \"-e\" (\"--exclude\") option.\n\n * Hunk headers produced for C# files by \"git diff\" and friends show more\n   relevant context than before.\n\n * diff.ignoresubmodules configuration variable can be used to squelch the\n   differences in submodules reported when running commands (e.g. \"diff\",\n   \"status\", etc.) at the superproject level.\n\n * http.useragent configuration can be used to lie who you are to your\n   restrictive firewall.\n\n * \"git rebase --strategy <s>\" learned \"-X\" option to pass extra options\n   that are understood by the chosen merge strategy.\n\n * \"git rebase -i\" learned \"exec\" that you can insert into the insn sheet\n   to run a command between its steps.\n\n * \"git rebase\" between branches that have many binary changes that do\n   not conflict should be faster.\n\n * \"git rebase -i\" peeks into rebase.autosquash configuration and acts as\n   if you gave --autosquash from the command line.\n\n\nAlso contains various documentation updates.\n\n\nFixes since v1.7.2\n------------------\n\nAll of the fixes in v1.7.2.X maintenance series are included in this\nrelease, unless otherwise noted.\n\n * \"git merge -s recursive\" (which is the default) did not handle cases\n   where a directory becomes a file (or vice versa) very well.\n\n * \"git fetch\" and friends were accidentally broken for url with \"+\" in\n   its path, e.g. \"git://git.gnome.org/gtk+\".\n\n * \"git fetch $url\" (i.e. without refspecs) was broken for quite some\n   time, if the current branch happen to be tracking some remote.\n\n * \"git note remove\" created unnecessary extra commit when named object\n   did not have any note to begin with.\n\n * \"git -c foo=bar subcmd\" did not work well for subcmd that is not\n   implemented as a built-in command.\n"},{"id":"150536","messageId":"201009121652.22297.johan@herland.net","threadId":"25073","inReplyTo":"7vvd6dfb5k.fsf@alter.siamese.dyndns.org","subject":"Re: [ANNOUNCE] Git 1.7.3.rc1","fromName":"Johan Herland","fromEmail":"johan@herland.net","sentAt":"2010-09-12T14:52:21Z","receivedAt":"2010-09-12T14:52:21Z","isPatch":false,"sender":{"key":"johan@herland.net","avatar":"https://avatars.githubusercontent.com/u/547031?v=4"},"body":"On Saturday, September 11, 2010 01:09:59 am Junio C Hamano wrote:\n> Fixes since v1.7.2\n> ------------------\n> \n>  * \"git note remove\" created unnecessary extra commit when named object\n>    did not have any note to begin with.\n\ns/note/notes/ ?\n\n\n...Johan\n"}]}
