Git 2.38.2 Release Notes
========================
This is to backport various fixes accumulated during the development
towards Git 2.39, the next feature release.
Fixes since v2.38.1
-------------------
* Update CodingGuidelines to clarify what features to use and avoid
in C99.
* The codepath that reads from the index v4 had unaligned memory
accesses, which has been corrected.
* "git remote rename" failed to rename a remote without fetch
refspec, which has been corrected.
* "git clone" did not like to see the "--bare" and the "--origin"
options used together without a good reason.
* Fix messages incorrectly marked for translation.
* "git fsck" failed to release contents of tree objects already used
from the memory, which has been fixed.
* "git rebase -i" can mistakenly attempt to apply a fixup to a commit
itself, which has been corrected.
* In read-only repositories, "git merge-tree" tried to come up with a
merge result tree object, which it failed (which is not wrong) and
led to a segfault (which is bad), which has been corrected.
* Force C locale while running tests around httpd to make sure we can
find expected error messages in the log.
* Fix a logic in "mailinfo -b" that miscomputed the length of a
substring, which lead to an out-of-bounds access.
* The codepath to sign learned to report errors when it fails to read
from "ssh-keygen".
* "GIT_EDITOR=: git branch --edit-description" resulted in failure,
which has been corrected.
Also contains various documentation updates and code clean-ups.
