    meant for underlying "git am" has been revamped, which fixed for

+ * Our testing framework uses a special i18n "poisoned localization"
+   feature to find messages that ought to stay constant but are
+   incorrectly marked to be translated.  This feature has been made
+   into a runtime option (it used to be a compile-time option).

+ * "git push" used to check ambiguities between object-names and
+   refnames while processing the list of refs' old and new values,
+   which was unnecessary (as it knew that it is feeding raw object
+   names).  This has been optimized out.
+
+ * The xcurl_off_t() helper function is used to cast size_t to
+   curl_off_t, but some compilers gave warnings against the code to
+   ensure the casting is done without wraparound, when size_t is
+   narrower than curl_off_t.  This warning has been squelched.
+
+ * Code preparation to replace ulong vars with size_t vars where
+   appropriate continues.
+
+ * The "test installed Git" mode of our test suite has been updated to
+   work better.
+
+ * A coding convention around the Coccinelle semantic patches to have
+   two classes to ease code migration process has been proposed and
+   its support has been added to the Makefile.
