  * Implementation of "reflog expire" has been restructured to fit the
    reflogs better with the recently updated ref API.
 
+ * The transport-helper did not give transport options such as
+   verbosity, progress, cloning, etc. to import and export based
+   helpers, like it did for fetch and push based helpers, robbing them
+   the chance to honor the wish of the end-users better.
+
+ * The tests that wanted to see that file becomes unreadable after
+   running "chmod a-r file", and the tests that wanted to make sure it
+   is not run as root, we used "can we write into the / directory?" as
+   a cheap substitute, but on some platforms that is not a good
+   heuristics.  The tests and their prerequisites have been updated to
+   check what they really require.
+   (merge f400e51 jk/sanity later to maint).
+
+ * The strbuf API was explained between the API documentation and in
+   the header file.  Move missing bits to strbuf.h so that programmers
+   can check only one place for all necessary information.
+
+ * The error handling functions and conventions are now documented in
+   the API manual.
+
+ * Optimize attribute look-up, mostly useful in "git grep" on a
+   project that does not use many attributes, by avoiding it when we
