* "git apply" learned to wiggle the base version and perform three-way
merge when a patch does not exactly apply to the version you have.
* Scripted Porcelain writers now have access to the credential API via
the "git credential" plumbing command.

* The error message from "git push $there :bogo" (and its equivalent
"git push $there --delete bogo") mentioned that we tried and failed
to guess what ref is being deleted based on the LHS of the refspec,
which we don't.
(merge 5742c82 jk/push-delete-ref-error-message later to maint).
* A handful of files and directories we create had tighter than
necessary permission bits when the user wanted to have group
writability (e.g. by setting "umask 002").
(merge 6ff2b72 ar/clone-honor-umask-at-top later to maint).
* "commit --amend" used to refuse amending a commit with an empty log
message, with or without "--allow-empty-message".
(merge d9a9357 cw/amend-commit-without-message later to maint).
* "git commit --amend --only --" was meant to allow "Clever" people to
rewrite the commit message without making any change even when they
have already changes for the next commit added to their index, but
it never worked as advertised since it was introduced in 1.3.0 era.
(merge ea2d4ed jk/maint-commit-amend-only-no-paths later to maint).
* Even though the index can record pathnames longer than 1<<12 bytes,
in some places we were not comparing them in full, potentially
replacing index entries instead of adding.
(merge d5f5333 tg/maint-cache-name-compare later to maint).
* "git show"'s auto-walking behaviour was an unreliable and
unpredictable hack; it now behaves just like "git log" does when it
walks.
