Subject: [ANNOUNCE] GIT 1.1.2

The latest maintenance release GIT 1.1.2 is available at the
usual places:

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

git-1.1.2.tar.{gz,bz2} (tarball)
RPMS/$arch/git-*-1.1.2-1.$arch.rpm (RPM)

----------------------------------------------------------------

Changes since v1.1.1 are as follows:

J. Bruce Fields:
Documentation: clarify fetch parameter descriptions.

Junio C Hamano:
update-index: work with c-quoted name
describe: do not silently ignore indescribable commits
name-rev: do not omit leading components of ref name.
show-branch: handle [] globs as well.
Documentation: git-commit -a
Documentation: git-reset - interrupted workflow.

Tom Prince:
Add git-describe to .gitignore.

----------------------------------------------------------------

These have been added to the "master" branch lately, in addition
to all of the above fixes:

Makefile: add 'strip' target.
octopus: allow criss-cross and clarify the message when it rejects.
checkout: automerge local changes while switching branches.
checkout: merge local modifications while switching branches.
git-push: avoid falling back on pushing "matching" refs.
Exec git programs without using PATH (Michal Ostrowski)
Fix the installation location.

These are still waiting their turn in the proposed updates
("pu") branch:

git-cvsimport: Add -A <author-conv-file> option (Andreas Ericsson)
convert-packs: futureproofing.
Require packfiles to follow the naming convention (preparation).
format-patch: always --mbox and show sane Date:
octopus: allow manual resolve on the last round.
Documentation: show-branch.
show-branch: make the current branch and merge commits stand out.
Disable USE_SYMLINK_HEAD by default (Pavel Roskin)
