Junio C Hamano 6641575963 Start 1.6.5 cycle
The next major release will be 1.6.5, hopefully with a shorter cycle
than the 1.6.4 cycle.  After that in 1.7.0 we can make potentially
backward incompatible changes if necessary.

GIT v1.6.5 Release Notes
========================
In git 1.7.0, which is planned to be the release after 1.6.5, "git push"
into a branch that is currently checked out will be refused by default.
You can choose what should happen upon such a push by setting the
configuration variable receive.denyCurrentBranch in the receiving
repository.
Also, "git push $there :$killed" to delete the branch $killed in a remote
repository $there, when $killed branch is the current branch pointed at by
its HEAD, will be refused by default.
You can choose what should happen upon such a push by setting the
configuration variable receive.denyDeleteCurrent in the receiving
repository.
To ease the transition plan, the receiving repository of such a
push running this release will issue a big warning when the
configuration variable is missing. Please refer to:

for more details on the reason why this change is needed and the
transition plan.
