+GIT v1.5.0.2 Release Notes
+==========================
+
+Fixes since v1.5.0.1
+--------------------
+
+* Bugfixes
+
+ - Automated merge conflict handling when changes to symbolic
+ links conflicted were completely broken. The merge-resolve
+ strategy created a regular file with conflict markers in it
+ in place of the symbolic link. The default strategy,
+ merge-recursive was even more broken. It removed the path
+ that was pointed at by the symbolic link. Both of these
+ problems have been fixed.
+
+ - 'git diff maint master next' did not correctly give combined
+ diff across three trees.
+
+ - 'git fast-import' portability fix for Solaris.
+
+ - 'git show-ref --verify' without arguments did not error out
+ but segfaulted.
+
+ - 'git diff :tracked-file `pwd`/an-untracked-file' gave an extra
+ slashes after a/ and b/.
+
+ - 'git format-patch' produced too long filenames if the commit
+ message had too long line at the beginning.
+
+ - Running 'make all' and then without changing anything
+ running 'make install' still rebuilt some files. This
+ was inconvenient when building as yourself and then
+ installing as root (especially problematic when the source
+ directory is on NFS and root is mapped to nobody).
+
+ - 'git-rerere' failed to deal with two unconflicted paths that
+ sorted next to each other.
+
+ - 'git-rerere' attempted to open(2) a symlink and failed if
+ there was a conflict. Since a conflicting change to a
+ symlink would not benefit from rerere anyway, the command
+ now ignores conflicting changes to symlinks.
+
+ - 'git-repack' did not like to pass more than 64 arguments
+ internally to underlying 'rev-list' logic, which made it
+ impossible to repack after accumulating many (small) packs
+ in the repository.
+
+ - 'git-diff' to review the combined diff during a conflicted
+ merge were not reading the working tree version correctly
+ when changes to a symbolic link conflicted. It should have
+ read the data using readlink(2) but read from the regular
+ file the symbolic link pointed at.
+
+ - 'git-remote' did not like period in a remote's name.
+
+* Documentation updates
+
+ - added and clarified core.bare, core.legacyheaders configurations.
+
+ - updated "git-clone --depth" documentation.
+
+
+* Assorted git-gui fixes.
