Git 2.32 Release Notes
======================
+Backward compatibility notes
+----------------------------
+
+ * ".gitattributes", ".gitignore", and ".mailmap" files that are
+ symbolic links are ignored.
+
+
Updates since v2.32
-------------------
-Backward incompatible and other important changes
+UI, Workflows & Features
+ * It does not make sense to make ".gitattributes", ".gitignore" and
+ ".mailmap" symlinks, as they are supposed to be usable from the
+ object store (think: bare repositories where HEAD:.mailmap etc. are
+ used). When these files are symbolic links, we used to read the
+ contents of the files pointed by them by mistake, which has been
+ corrected.
-UI, Workflows & Features
+ * "git stash show" learned to optionally show untracked part of the
+ stash.
+
+ * "git log --format='...'" learned "%(describe)" placeholder.
Performance, Internal Implementation, Development Support etc.
+ * Rename detection rework continues.
+
