I did a quick read through and it looks like another interesting edition, thank you! I couldn't see any obvious issues with it. There is quite a lot of discussion in the support section, which I really like. The following sections pack a lot in, but I think could warrant a little more discussion themselves. For example, I think it would be good to add a brief discussion about the 2.5 release. This seems important/interesting enough to provide a bit more context in the edition itself. Perhaps something like the following? --8<-- ## Releases * Git 2.5 is out! The project maintainer, Junio C. Hamano, has [shared his thoughts on the release at his blog](http://git-blame.blogspot.de/2015/07/git-25.html). Git 2.5 is packed full of new features, and includes contributions from 21 new contributors. In his post, Junio describes how `git help` has changed: > One interesting change is to git help. We now list commands, grouped by the situation in which you would want to use them. This came from discussion on usability, inspired by one of the talks at GitMerge conference we had in spring. He goes on to talk about some of his favourite new features included in the release, such as a new short hand `branch@{push}` that "denotes the remote-tracking branch that tracks the branch at the remote the branch would be pushed to", and a new option `--ws-error-highlight` that can be used with `git diff` and friends to show whitespace breakages in deleted and context lines. Be sure to see the post for more on the new features, or checkout the [release notes in the source](https://github.com/git/git/blob/master/Documentation/RelNotes/2.5.0.txt) for all the nitty gritty details. --8<-- I'll copy this over to a pull request so you have it there if you think it's useful. Again, thanks for the edition, love reading these each month!
