On the 'maint' front, there aren't that many 'grave fixes' anymore, which is somewhat (happily) surprising after a big release like 1.5.0. Shawn has updated git-gui to 0.6.1. I'll perhaps do 1.5.0.2 next week.

In 'master', I pushed out autoCRLF and git-apply fixes. These are changes people can easily notice breakage and would benefit from wider exposure. Hopefully we can have simple path based text/binary attribute on top of them -- I am hoping it to come from people who actually benefit from autoCRLF ;-).

* The 'maint' branch has these fixes since the last announcement.
