Git v2.38 Release Notes
=======================
Performance, Internal Implementation, Development Support etc.
* Collection of what is referenced by objects in promisor packs have
been optimized to inspect these objects in the in-pack order.
(merge 18c08abc82 jk/optim-promisor-object-enumeration later to maint).
* Introduce a helper to see if a branch is already being worked on
(hence should not be newly checked out in a working tree), which
performs much better than the existing find_shared_symref() to
replace many uses of the latter.
* Teach "git archive" to (optionally and then by default) avoid
spawning an external "gzip" process when creating ".tar.gz" (and
".tgz") archives.
(merge 4f4be00d30 rs/archive-with-internal-gzip later to maint).
Fixes since v2.37
-----------------
* Rewrite of "git add -i" in C that appeared in Git 2.25 didn't
correctly record a removed file to the index, which was fixed.
(merge 4788e8b256 js/add-i-delete later to maint).
* Certain diff options are currently ignored when combined-diff is
shown; mark them as incompatible with the feature.
(merge cfb19ae05f rs/combine-diff-with-incompatible-options later to maint).
* Adjust technical/bitmap-format to be formatted by AsciiDoc, and
add some missing information to the documentation.
(merge ac7667bd44 ac/bitmap-format-doc later to maint).
* Other code cleanup, docfix, build fix, etc.
(merge 5fd9d1738e jk/revisions-doc-markup-fix later to maint).
(merge 1971510c35 pb/diff-doc-raw-format later to maint).
(merge a3ba4fa715 cr/setup-bug-typo later to maint).
(merge 85845580d9 ds/vscode-settings later to maint).
