What's in git.git (stable frozen)

Sorry for the "\No newline at the end" brown paper bag bug, which happened soon after -rc0 but now fixed. Thanks Jeff.

"git diff --check" was inconsistent with the highlighting of whitespace problems and was harder to use from scripts (which makes it a usability bug). Both have been fixed. Thanks Wincent.

A handful "gitweb" fixes I forgot to apply earlier are now in. Thanks Jakub.

A "git commit" regression has been noticed --- the post-commit summary was inconsistent with what is shown by git-status before making the commit. Thanks Daniel.

A workaround for massive commit that exceeds command line limit when issuing "cvs status list-of-files" has been added. Thanks Jeff.

Hopefully the final round of clean-up until 1.5.4 in whitespace area has been applied. Thanks Wincent and Bruce.

I am reasonably happy that we are finding and fixing bugs. Please keep the fixes, including documentation updates, flowing in.

 * "git -p ls-tree HEAD" in a bare repository is still not fixed.

 * Hannes says "thread pack-objects" improvements needs a follow-up
   patch; it hasn't been applied here yet.

 * option parser regression fix really needs to be in by -rc1, but I
   just applied the initial round of Pierre's patches today.  See
   "What's cooking" for the list.

I need to coordinate with subsystem people and pull in changes for gitk, git-gui, user manual and git-svn.

----------------------------------------------------------------
* The 'master' branch has these since the last announcement
  in addition to the above.
