Also contains minor typofixes and documentation updates. ---------------------------------------------------------------- Changes since v1.7.11.3 are as follows: Jeff King (3): diff: test precedence of external diff drivers advice: pass varargs to strbuf_vaddf, not strbuf_addf commit: document the temporary commit message file Jens Lehmann (1): submodules: don't stumble over symbolic links when cloning recursively Junio C Hamano (7): filter-branch: do not forget the '@' prefix to force git-timestamp date.c: Fix off by one error in object-header date parsing t7003: add test to filter a branch with a commit at epoch commit-tree: resurrect command line parsing updates Revert "git-commit-tree(1): update synopsis" diff: correctly disable external_diff with --no-ext-diff Git 1.7.11.4 Paul Gortmaker (1): am: indicate where a failed patch is to be found -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe git" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
