(performance)
* many uses of lstat(2) in the codepath for "git checkout" have been
optimized out.
(usability, bells and whistles)
* rsync:/path/to/repo can be used to run git over rsync for local
repositories. It may not be useful in practice; meant primarily for
testing.
* (msysgit) progress output that is sent over the sideband protocol can
be handled appropriately in Windows console.
* "--pretty=<style>" option to the log family of commands can now be
spelled as "--format=<style>". In addition, --format=%formatstring
is a short-hand for --pretty=tformat:%formatstring.

* git-format-patch can be told to produce deep or shallow message threads.
* git-grep learned to highlight the found substrings in color.
* git-imap-send learned to work around Thunderbird's inability to easily
disable format=flowed with a new configuration, imap.preformattedHTML.

* git-rebase can be told to report diffstat with the --stat option.
* Output from git-remote command has been vastly improved.
* git-send-email learned --confirm option to review the Cc: list before
sending the messages out.

Here are fixes that this release has, but have not been backported to
v1.6.2.X series.
* 'git-submodule add' did not tolerate extra slashes and ./ in the
path it accepted from the command line; it now is more lenient
(if needed, backport by merging db75ada).
* "git diff --pickaxe-regexp" did not count overlapping matches
correctly (backport by cherry-picking 50fd699).
* "git-fetch" in a repository that was not cloned from anywhere said
it cannot find 'origin', which was hard to understand for new people.
* git-gc spent excessive amount of time to decide if an object appears
in a locally existing pack (if needed, backport by merging 69e020a).
* "git-ls-files --deleted" did not work well with GIT_DIR&GIT_WORK_TREE
(backport by cherry-picking 8ad3dae).
* "git-read-tree A B C..." without -m option has been broken for a long time
(backport by merging jc/maint-1.6.0-read-tree-overlay)
* 'git-submodule add' did not tolerate extra slashes and ./ in the
path it accepted from the command line; it now is more lenient
(if needed, backport by merging db75ada).
* git-send-email ignored --in-reply-to when --no-thread was given
(backport by merging tr/maint-1.6.0-send-email-irt)
