testing.

with the 'edit' action in git-add -i/-p, you can abort the editor to
tell git not to apply it.

1.6.2, but the initial implementation did not teach this to a few
commands. Now the syntax works with "branch -m @{-1} newname".
+* "git-add -p" now supports "q"uit action.
+
* git-archive learned --output=<file> option.
+* git-archive takes attributes from the tree being archived; strictly
+ speaking, this is an incompatible behaviour change, but is a good one.
+ Use --worktree-attributes option to allow it to read attributes from
+ the work tree as before (deprecated git-tar tree command always reads
+ attributes from the work tree).

* git-bisect shows not just the number of remaining commits whose goodness
is unknown, but also shows the estimated number of remaining rounds.

Here are fixes that this release has, but have not been backported to
v1.6.2.X series.
+* "git-apply" rejected a patch that swaps two files (i.e. renames A to B

* The initial checkout did not read the attributes from the .gitattribute
file that is being checked out.
-* "git-checkout <tree-ish> <submodule>" did not update the index entry at
- the named path; it now does.
-
* git-gc spent excessive amount of time to decide if an object appears
in a locally existing pack (if needed, backport by merging 69e020a).
-* "git-ls-tree" and "git-diff-tree" used a pathspec correctly when
- deciding to descend into a subdirectory but they did not match the
- individual paths correctly. This caused pathspecs "abc/d ab" to match
- "abc/0" ("abc/d" made them decide to descend into the directory "abc/",
- and then "ab" incorrectly matched "abc/0" when it shouldn't).
-
-* "git-merge-recursive" was broken when a submodule entry was involved in
- a criss-cross merge situation.
