[ANNOUNCE] GIT 1.2.5

The latest maintenance release GIT 1.2.5 is available at the usual places:

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

	git-1.2.5.tar.{gz,bz2}			(tarball)
	RPMS/$arch/git-*-1.2.5-1.$arch.rpm	(RPM)

This is primarily made to help Solaris folks who were bitten by pack-objects (hence cloning from a repository hosted on Solaris) broken by the progress-bar eye-candy. People who follow the "master" branch, and people who run 1.2.4 on platforms with BSD signal semantics (which automatically restarts interrupted read() upon signal) need not worry.

With the "master" branch work nearing 1.3.0, hopefully this will be the last 1.2.X release.

----------------------------------------------------------------

Changes since v1.2.4 are as follows:

Jason Riedy:
      Use sigaction and SA_RESTART in read-tree.c; add option in Makefile.

Junio C Hamano:
      read-tree --aggressive: remove deleted entry from the working tree.
      tar-tree: file/dirmode fix.
      safe_fgets() - even more anal fgets()

Linus Torvalds:
      Fix Solaris stdio signal handling stupidities
      pack-objects: be incredibly anal about stdio semantics
