What's in git.git (stable)

[Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>]

Nothing earth-shattering in 'maint', except:

 - if you are on FreeBSD and use its default shell, git scripts
   might work better for you;

 - comes with updated user-manual;

 - send-email would not incorrectly issue duplicated message IDs
   even if you fire many messages within one second;

 - "git rm this-file && git commit this-file" should work
   better;
