[ANNOUNCE] GIT 1.5.4-rc5

The fifth and hopefully the last rc for the next feature release GIT 1.5.4 is available at the usual places:

  http://www.kernel.org/pub/software/scm/git/

  git-1.5.4.rc5.tar.{gz,bz2}			(tarball)
  git-htmldocs-1.5.4.rc5.tar.{gz,bz2}		(preformatted docs)
  git-manpages-1.5.4.rc5.tar.{gz,bz2}		(preformatted docs)
  RPMS/$arch/git-*-1.5.4.rc5-1.$arch.rpm	(RPM)

The changes since -rc4 are quite small, and except for git-gui updates they are all reasonably trivial fixes. Please give it a good testing.
