Git v1.7.2 Release Notes (draft)
================================
 
Updates since v1.7.1
--------------------
 
 * After "git apply --whitespace=fix" removed trailing blank lines in an
   patch in a patch series, it failed to apply later patches that depend
   on the presense of such blank lines.
 
 * The output from the textconv filter used by "git diff" can be cached to
   speed up their reuse.
 
 * "git send-email" learned --smtp-domain option to specify the domainname
   used in the EHLO/HELO exchange.
 
 * "git revert" learned --strategy option to specify the merge strategy.
 
 * The whitespace rules used in "git apply --whitespace" and "git diff"
   gained a new member in the family (tab-in-indent) to help projects with
   policy to indent only with spaces.
 
 * Authentication over http transport can now be made lazily, in that the
   request can first go to a URL without username, get a 401 response and
   then the client will ask for the username to use.
 
 
Fixes since v1.7.1
------------------
 
 * In 1.7.1, "git status" stopped refreshing the index by mistake.
 
All of the fixes in v1.7.1.X maintenance series are included in this
release, unless otherwise noted.
