Contributions from\npeople new to the list are much appreciated.  Long timers have\njust leaned to live with these inconveniences, but I expect such\nrough edges will be rounded out quickly as we gain more wider\nuser base.\n\nThe much talked about pack performance enhancement is not in\nthis release.  In principle, 1.2.X series are supposed to be\nbugfix only, so I can justifiably be lazy and keep things that\nway, but we _could_ argue that the old pack-object had a\nperformance bug ;-).  \n\nWe will decide what to do after it hits the master branch.  I\nthink pack-object is important enough to be conservative about,\nbut at the same time its performance is veriy critical for the\npublic git server, so as it proves stable we probably would want\nto have it on kernel.org.\n\n----------------------------------------------------------------\n\nChanges since v1.2.1 are as follows:\n\nCarl Worth:\n      Trap exit to clean up created directory if clone fails.\n      Abstract test_create_repo out for use in tests.\n      Prevent git-upload-pack segfault if object cannot be found\n\nEric Wong:\n      archimport: remove files from the index before adding/updating\n\nJonas Fonseca:\n      git-rev-parse: Fix --short= option parsing\n      Document --short and --git-dir in git-rev-parse(1)\n\nMartin Mares:\n      Fix retries in git-cvsimport\n\nShawn Pearce:\n      Make git-reset delete empty directories\n"}]}
