Getting closer with bunch of fixes, perhaps a real 1.3.0 early
next week.

I'd appreciate people beating what's in the "master" branch to
shake down the last minute brown paper bag problems.  

BTW, I shifted my git day from usual Wednesday to Thursday this
week.  I may do the same the next week.

* The 'master' branch has these since the last announcement.

 - More Solaris 9 portability (Dennis Stosberg)
 - kill index() and replace it with strchr() (Dennis Stosberg)
 - git-apply -C to apply patch with fuzz (Eric W. Biederman)
 - git-log [diff options]
 - Retire git-log.sh
 - Combine-diff fix
 - Retire t5501 test
 - Fix "echo -n foo | git commit -F -"
 - diff --patch-with-raw (Pasky and me)
 - Documentation updates (Pasky and me)
 - Fix running t3600 test as root.
 - "expr match : foobar" fix (Mark Wooding and me)
 - commit message formatting fix for incomplete line (Linus)
 - git-log memory footprint fix (Linus)

* The 'next' branch, in addition, has these.

 - xdiff: post-process hunks to make them consistent (Davide Libenzi)
 - diff --stat (Johannes Schindelin and me)
 - t5500 test fix

```

* The 'master' branch has these since the last announcement.

 - Update xdiff (Davide Libenzi)
 - Add diff --stat and --patch-with-stat (Johannes Schindelin)
 - Miscellaneous fixes (A Large Angry SCM, Linus, Serge
   E. Hallyn, Yann Dirson, me)
 - Fix rev-list --boundary (me)
 - Update gitk (Paul Mackerras)

* The 'next' branch, in addition, has these.

 - Common option parsing for "git log --diff" and friends (Linus)
 - Log message printout cleanups (Linus)
 - Log/show/whatchanged commands are now built-in (Linus and me)
 - Similarity fingerprint (Geert Bosch)
 - Define "log --stat" to be "stat with first parent" (Linus and me)

The commits on the lt/logopt branch (part of "next" branch) are
proving to be more stable and safe enough to use.  It cleans up
the code quote a lot,

I'm really resisting the temptation to merge these before 1.3.0.
There is a slight output format change from diff-tree --pretty;
while I would not expect no Porcelains is affected in practice,
technically this is a backward incompatible change, so...

Anyway, they will be merged immediately after the big release.
