Also contains a handful of documentation updates. ---------------------------------------------------------------- Changes since v1.7.12.2 are as follows: Jeff King (3): receive-pack: redirect unpack-objects stdout to /dev/null receive-pack: send pack-processing stderr over sideband receive-pack: drop "n/a" on unpacker errors Junio C Hamano (3): git blame: document that it always follows origin across whole-file renames Start preparing for 1.7.12.3 Git 1.7.12.3 Linus Torvalds (1): mailinfo: don't require "text" mime type for attachments Orgad Shaneh (1): commit: pay attention to submodule.$name.ignore in .gitmodules Peter Krefting (1): l10n: Fix to Swedish translation Ralf Thielow (1): clone --single: limit the fetch refspec to fetched branch Ramkumar Ramachandra (1): submodule: if $command was not matched, don't parse other args Shawn O.
