* "git p4 submit" learns to ask its own pre-submit hook if it should
continue with submitting.
* The test performed at the receiving end of "git push" to prevent
bad objects from entering repository can be customized via
receive.fsck.* configuration variables; we now have gained a
counterpart to do the same on the "git fetch" side, with
fetch.fsck.* configuration variables.
* "git pull --rebase=interactive" learned "i" as a short-hand for
"interactive".

* The parse-options machinery learned to refrain from enclosing
placeholder string inside a "<bra" and "ket>" pair automatically
without PARSE_OPT_LITERAL_ARGHELP. Existing help text for option
arguments that are not formatted correctly have been identified and
fixed.
(merge 5f0df44cd7 rs/parse-opt-lithelp later to maint).
* Noiseword "extern" has been removed from function decls in the
header files.
* A few atoms like %(objecttype) and %(objectsize) in the format
specifier of "for-each-ref --format=<format>" can be filled without
getting the full contents of the object, but just with the object
header. These cases have been optimized by calling
oid_object_info() API (instead of reading and inspecting the data).
* The end result of documentation update has been made to be
inspected more easily to help developers.

* The "author-script" file "git rebase -i" creates got broken when
we started to move the command away from shell script, which is
getting fixed now.
(merge 5522bbac20 es/rebase-i-author-script-fix later to maint).
* The automatic tree-matching in "git merge -s subtree" was broken 5
years ago and nobody has noticed since then, which is now fixed.
(merge 2ec4150713 jk/merge-subtree-heuristics later to maint).
* "git fetch $there refs/heads/s" ought to fetch the tip of the
branch 's', but when "refs/heads/refs/heads/s", i.e. a branch whose
name is "refs/heads/s" exists at the same time, fetched that one
instead by mistake. This has been corrected to honor the usual
disambiguation rules for abbreviated refnames.

* Futureproofing a helper function that can easily be misused.
(merge 65bb21e77e es/want-color-fd-defensive later to maint).
* The http-backend (used for smart-http transport) used to slurp the
whole input until EOF, without paying attention to CONTENT_LENGTH
that is supplied in the environment and instead expecting the Web
server to close the input stream. This has been fixed.
(merge eebfe40962 mk/http-backend-content-length later to maint).
* "git merge --abort" etc. did not clean things up properly when
there were conflicted entries in the index in certain order that
are involved in D/F conflicts. This has been corrected.
(merge ad3762042a en/abort-df-conflict-fixes later to maint).
* "git diff --indent-heuristic" had a bad corner case performance.
