* "git branch --track" (and "git checkout --track --branch") used to
allow setting up a random non-branch that does not make sense to follow
as the "upstream". The command correctly diagnoses it as an error.

* "git grep --no-index" did not honor pathspecs correctly, returning
paths outside the specified area.
* "git init" learned the --separate-git-dir option to allow the git
directory for a new repository created elsewhere and linked via the
gitdir mechanism. This is primarily to help submodule support later
to switch between a branch of superproject that has the submodule
