Git v2.45 Release Notes
=======================
Backward Compatibility Notes
UI, Workflows & Features
* Integrate the reftable code into the refs framework as a backend.
With "git init --ref-format=reftable", hopefully it would be a lot
more efficient to manage a repository with many references.
* "git checkout -p" and friends learned that that "@" is a synonym
for "HEAD".
* Variants of vimdiff learned to honor mergetool.<variant>.layout
settings.
Performance, Internal Implementation, Development Support etc.
* The code to iterate over refs with the reftable backend has seen
some optimization.
* More tests that are marked as "ref-files only" have been updated to
improve test coverage of reftable backend.
* Some parts of command line completion script (in contrib/) have
been micro-optimized.
Fixes since v2.44
-----------------
* "git apply" on a filesystem without filemode support have learned
to take a hint from what is in the index for the path, even when
not working with the "--index" or "--cached" option, when checking
the executable bit match what is required by the preimage in the
patch.
(merge 45b625142d cp/apply-core-filemode later to maint).
* "git column" has been taught to reject negative padding value, as
it would lead to nonsense behaviour including division by zero.
(merge 76fb807faa kh/column-reject-negative-padding later to maint).
* "git am --help" now tells readers what actions are available in
"git am --whitespace=<action>", in addition to saying that the
option is passed through to the underlying "git apply".
(merge a171dac734 jc/am-whitespace-doc later to maint).
* "git tag --column" failed to check the exit status of its "git
column" invocation, which has been corrected.
(merge 92e66478fc rj/tag-column-fix later to maint).
* Credential helper based on libsecret (in contrib/) has been updated
to handle an empty password correctly.
(merge 8f1f2023b7 mh/libsecret-empty-password-fix later to maint).
* Other code cleanup, docfix, build fix, etc.
(merge f0e578c69c rs/use-xstrncmpz later to maint).
(merge 83e6eb7d7a ba/credential-test-clean-fix later to maint).
(merge 64562d784d jb/doc-interactive-singlekey-do-not-need-perl later to maint).
