Well, there are in the survey questions about changes in GIT: ---- Changes in GIT (since year ago, or since you started using it)

    0. Did you participate in previous Git User's Survey?
    -  yes/no
    1. What improvements you wanted got implemented?
    2. What improvements you wanted didn't get implemented?
    3. How do you compare current version iwth version from year ago?
    -  current version is: better/worse/no changes
    4. Which of the new features do you use?
       (zero or more: multiple choice)
    -  git-gui, bundle, eol conversion, gitattributes,
       submodules, worktree, release notes, user's manual,
       reflog, stash, shallow clone, detached HEAD, fast-import,
       mergetool, other (not mentioned here)
    5. If you selected "other", what are those features?

Regarding announcement of what git has achieved since last survey: I'm not sure what is the full list. RelNotes are fairly recent, unfortunately...
