Start 1.6.5 cycle

The next major release will be 1.6.5, hopefully with a shorter cycle
than the 1.6.4 cycle.  After that in 1.7.0 we can make potentially
backward incompatible changes if necessary.

+GIT v1.6.5 Release Notes
+========================
+
+In git 1.7.0, which is planned to be the release after 1.6.5, "git push"
+into a branch that is currently checked out will be refused by default.
+
+You can choose what should happen upon such a push by setting the
+configuration variable receive.denyCurrentBranch in the receiving
+repository.
+
+Also, "git push $there :$killed" to delete the branch $killed in a remote
+repository $there, when $killed branch is the current branch pointed at by
+its HEAD, will be refused by default.
+
+You can choose what should happen upon such a push by setting the
+configuration variable receive.denyDeleteCurrent in the receiving
+repository.
+
+To ease the transition plan, the receiving repository of such a
+push running this release will issue a big warning when the
+configuration variable is missing.  Please refer to:

+for more details on the reason why this change is needed and the
+transition plan.
