Git v2.3.8 Release Notes
========================
Fixes since v2.3.7
------------------
* The usual "git diff" when seeing a file turning into a directory
showed a patchset to remove the file and create all files in the
directory, but "git diff --no-index" simply refused to work. Also,
when asked to compare a file and a directory, imitate POSIX "diff"
and compare the file with the file with the same name in the
directory, instead of refusing to run.
* The default $HOME/.gitconfig file created upon "git config --global"
that edits it had incorrectly spelled user.name and user.email
entries in it.
* "git commit --date=now" or anything that relies on approxidate lost
the daylight-saving-time offset.
Also contains typofixes, documentation updates and trivial code
clean-ups.
----------------------------------------------------------------
