[ANNOUNCE] GIT 1.5.5.2

The latest maintenance release GIT 1.5.5.2 is available at the usual places:

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

  git-1.5.5.2.tar.{gz,bz2}			(tarball)
  git-htmldocs-1.5.5.2.tar.{gz,bz2}		(preformatted docs)
  git-manpages-1.5.5.2.tar.{gz,bz2}		(preformatted docs)
  RPMS/$arch/git-*-1.5.5.2-1.$arch.rpm	(RPM)

One side effect of declaring to make the cycle toward 1.5.6 shorter is that we would not have that many 1.5.5.X maintenance releases. Nevertheless, there are quite a few fixes accumulated since 1.5.5.1 hence this one.
