Subject[ANNOUNCE] Git v2.16.3
Date
The latest maintenance release Git v2.16.3 is now available at
the usual places. It merges many small fixes and documentation
updates that have been in the 'master' branch for a few weeks.

The tarballs are found at:

https://www.kernel.org/pub/software/scm/git/

The following public repositories all have a copy of the 'v2.16.3'
tag and the 'maint' branch that the tag points at:

url = https://kernel.googlesource.com/pub/scm/git/git
url = git://repo.or.cz/alt-git.git
url = https://github.com/gitster/git

Git v2.16.3 Release Notes
=========================

Fixes since v2.16.2
-------------------

* "git status" after moving a path in the working tree (hence making
it appear "removed") and then adding with the -N option (hence
making that appear "added") detected it as a rename, but did not
report the old and new pathnames correctly.

* "git commit --fixup" did not allow "-m<message>" option to be used
at the same time; allow it to annotate resulting commit with more
text.

* When resetting the working tree files recursively, the working tree
of submodules are now also reset to match.

* Fix for a commented-out code to adjust it to a rather old API change
around object ID.

* When there are too many changed paths, "git diff" showed a warning
message but in the middle of a line.

* The http tracing code, often used to debug connection issues,
learned to redact potentially sensitive information from its output
so that it can be more safely sharable.

* Crash fix for a corner case where an error codepath tried to unlock
what it did not acquire lock on.

* The split-index mode had a few corner case bugs fixed.

* Assorted fixes to "git daemon".

* Completion of "git merge -s<strategy>" (in contrib/) did not work
well in non-C locale.

* Workaround for segfault with more recent versions of SVN.

* Recently introduced leaks in fsck have been plugged.

* Travis CI integration now builds the executable in 'script' phase
to follow the established practice, rather than during
'before_script' phase. This allows the CI categorize the failures
better ('failed' is project's fault, 'errored' is build
environment's).

Also contains various documentation updates and code clean-ups.
