A release candidate Git 1.7.4-rc3 is available at the usual places for testing:

  http://www.kernel.org/pub/software/scm/git/
  git-1.7.4.rc3.tar.{gz,bz2}			(source tarball)
  git-htmldocs-1.7.4.rc3.tar.{gz,bz2}		(preformatted docs)
  git-manpages-1.7.4.rc3.tar.{gz,bz2}		(preformatted docs)
The RPM binary packages for a few architectures are found in:
  testing/git-*-1.7.4.rc3-1.fc13.$arch.rpm	(RPM)

Except for a regression fix to keep honoring "git --work-tree=/there/ cmd" without specifying --git-dir (Thanks Jonathan), there isn't any exciting new thing to see here; which is exactly the way how I want an rc3 to be.

Hopefully we can tag the final by the end of the month. Everybody, thanks in advance for testing this rc ;-).
