* Improved handling of views, labels and branches in git-p4 (in contrib).
* Updated command line arguments completion script for zsh (in contrib).
* "vcs-svn"/"svn-fe" learned to read dumps with svn-deltas and
support incremental imports.

* "git clone" learned to detach the HEAD in the resulting repository
when the source repository's HEAD does not point to a branch.
* The commands in the "git diff" family and "git apply --stat" that
count the number of files changed and the number of lines
inserted/deleted have been updated to match the output from
"diffstat". This also opens the door to i18n this line.
* When showing a patch while ignoring whitespace changes, the context
lines are taken from the postimage, in order to make it easier to
view the output.

releases are contained in this release (see release notes to them for
details).
* "git merge --no-edit $tag" failed to honor the --no-edit option.
(merge 3adab6f jn/merge-no-edit-fix later to maint).
* The error message emitted when we see an empty loose object was
not phrased correctly.
(merge 33e42de mm/empty-loose-error-message later to maint).
* Many small corner case bugs on "git tag -n" was corrected.
(merge 31fd8d7 jk/maint-tag-show-fixes later to maint).
* "git commit" refused to create a commit when entries added with
"add -N" remained in the index, without telling Git what their content
in the next commit should be. We should have created the commit without
these paths.
(merge 3f6d56d jc/maint-commit-ignore-i-t-a later to maint).
* Search box in "gitweb" did not accept non-ASCII characters correctly.
(merge 84d9e2d jn/gitweb-search-utf-8 later to maint).
* The code to ask for password did not fall back to the terminal
input when GIT_ASKPASS is set but does not work (e.g. lack of X
with GUI askpass helper).
(merge 84d7273 jk/prompt-fallback-to-tty later to maint).
* map_user() was not rewriting its output correctly, which resulted
in the user visible symptom that "git blame -e" sometimes showed
excess '>' at the end of email addresses.
(merge f026358 jc/maint-mailmap-output later to maint).
* "checkout -b" did not allow switching out of an unborn branch.
(merge abe1998 jc/checkout-out-of-unborn later to maint).
* "add -e" learned not to show a diff for an otherwise unmodified
submodule that only has uncommitted local changes in the patch
prepared by for the user to edit.
