GIT v1.5.3.3 Release Notes ==========================

Fixes since v1.5.3.2 --------------------

 * git-quiltimport did not like it when a patch described in the
   series file does not exist.
 * p4 importer missed executable bit in some cases.
 * The default shell on some FreeBSD did not execute the
   argument parsing code correctly and made git unusable.
 * git-svn incorrectly spawned pager even when the user user
   explicitly asked not to.
 * sample post-receive hook overquoted the envelope sender
   value.
 * git-am got confused when the patch contained a change that is
   only about type and not contents.
 * git-mergetool did not show our and their version of the
   conflicted file when started from a subdirectory of the
   project.
 * git-mergetool did not pass correct options when invoking diff3.
 * git-log sometimes invoked underlying "diff" machinery
   unnecessarily.
