  * A few descriptions in "git show-ref -h" have been clarified.
 
+ * A 'P' command to "git add -p" that passes the patch hunk to the
+   pager has been added.
+
+ * "git grep -W" omits blank lines that follow the found function at
+   the end of the file, just like it omits blank lines before the next
+   function.

+ * The value of http.proxy can have "path" at the end for a socks
+   proxy that listens to a unix-domain socket, but we started to
+   discard it when we taught proxy auth code path to use the
+   credential helpers, which has been corrected.
+
+ * The code paths to compact multiple reftable files have been updated
+   to correctly deal with multiple compaction triggering at the same
+   time.
+
+ * Support to specify ref backend for submodules has been enhanced.
+
+ * "git svn" has been taught about svn:global-ignores property
+   recent versions of Subversion has.

  * The reviewing guidelines document now explicitly encourages people
    to give positive reviews and how.
 
+ * Test script linter has been updated to catch an attempt to use
+   one-shot export construct "VAR=VAL func" for shell functions (which
+   does not work for some shells) better.
+
+ * Some project conventions have been added to CodingGuidelines.
+
+ * In the refs subsystem, implicit reliance of the_repository has been
+   eliminated; the repository associated with the ref store object is
+   used instead.
+
+ * Various tests in reftable library have been rewritten using the unit test
+   framework.
+
+ * A test that fails on an unusually slow machine was found, and made
+   less likely to cause trouble by lengthening the expiry value it
+   uses.
+
+ * An existing test of hashmap API has been rewritten with the
+   unit-test framework.
+
+ * A policy document that describes platform support levels and
+   expectation on platform stakeholders has been introduced.
+
+ * The refs API has been taught to give symref target information to
+   the users of ref iterators, allowing for-each-ref and friends to
+   avoid an extra ref_resolve_* API call per a symbolic ref.
+
+ * Unit-test framework has learned a simple control structure to allow
+   embedding test statements in-line instead of having to create a new
+   function to contain them.

    failed to parse the patch that represents an unmodified empty line
    with an empty line (not a line with a single space on it), which
    has been corrected.
-   (merge 60cf761ed1 pw/add-patch-with-suppress-blank-empty later to maint).
 
  * "git checkout --ours" (no other arguments) complained that the
    option is incompatible with branch switching, which is technically
    correct, but found confusing by some users.  It now says that the
    user needs to give pathspec to specify what paths to checkout.
-   (merge d1e6c61272 jc/checkout-no-op-switch-errors later to maint).
 
  * It has been documented that we avoid "VAR=VAL shell_func" and why.
-   (merge 728a1962cd jc/doc-one-shot-export-with-shell-func later to maint).
 
  * "git rebase --help" referred to "offset" (the difference between
    the location a change was taken from and the change gets replaced)
    incorrectly and called it "fuzz", which has been corrected.
-   (merge 70058db385 jc/doc-rebase-fuzz-vs-offset-fix later to maint).

+   corrected.
+
+ * More leakfixes.

+   (merge e95d515141 jk/apply-patch-mode-check-fix later to maint).
