Subject: [ANNOUNCE] GIT 1.5.6.2

The latest maintenance release GIT 1.5.6.2 are available at the usual
places:

http://www.kernel.org/pub/software/scm/git/

git-1.5.6.2.tar.{gz,bz2} (source tarball)
git-htmldocs-1.5.6.2.tar.{gz,bz2} (preformatted docs)
git-manpages-1.5.6.2.tar.{gz,bz2} (preformatted docs)

The RPM binary packages for a few architectures are also provided as
courtesy. As the machine I cut them at kernel.org has been updated to FC9
recently, their filenames now have .fc9. in them.

RPMS/$arch/git-*-1.5.6.2-1.fc9.$arch.rpm (RPM)

There still are a handful more fixes queued for 'maint' so we might see
another maintenance release, 1.5.6.3, not too far in the future.

I believe this is related to moving to the dash-less form of receive-pack et al.
