* Various git-p4 enhancements (in contrib).
* Various vcs-svn enhancements.
* "git config" used to be also known as "git repo-config", but the old
name is now officially deprecated.

* "git cherry-pick" and "git revert" can be told to use custom merge
strategy, similar to "git rebase".
* "rev-list --objects $revs -- $pathspec" would limit the objects listed
* "git cherry-pick" remembers which commit failed to apply when it is
stopped by conflicts, making it unnecessary to use "commit -c $commit"
to conclude it.
* "git grep --no-index" did not honor pathspecs correctly, returning
paths outside the specified area.
* "git rev-list --objects $revs -- $pathspec" would limit the objects listed
in its output properly with the pathspec, in preparation for narrow
clones.

All of the fixes in the v1.7.4.X maintenance series are included in this
release, unless otherwise noted.
* "git clone /no/such/path" did not fail correctly (jk/fail-null/clone).
* "git checkout $other_branch" silently removed untracked symbolic links
in the working tree that are in the way in order to check out paths
under it from the named branch (js/checkout-untracked-symlink).
* "git diff --stat -B" ran on binary files counted the changes in lines,
which was nonsensical (jk/diffstat-binary).
* "git diff -M" opportunisticly detected copies, which was not
necessarily a good thing, especially when it is internally run by
recursive merge.
* "git merge" triggers prepare-commit-msg hook. Earlier, only "git
commit" to conclude an interrupted merge triggered the hook, leading to
an inconsistent overall user experience (js/maint-merge-use-prepare-commit-msg-hook).
* "git submodule update" used to honor --merge/--rebase option (or
corresponding configuration variables) even for a newly cloned
subprojects, which made no sense (so/submodule-no-update-first-time).
