* The scripting part of the codebase is getting prepared for i18n/l10n.
* Interix and Cygwin ports got updated.
* Various codepaths that invoked zlib deflate/inflate assumed that these
functions can compress or uncompress more than 4GB data in one call on
platforms with 64-bit long, which has been corrected.
* "git archive" can be told to pass the output to gzip compression and
produce "archive.tar.gz".
* "git checkout" (both the code to update the files upon checking out a
different branch, the code to checkout specific set of files) learned
to stream the data from object store when possible, without having to
read the entire contents of a file in memory first.
* "git diff --cc" learned to correctly ignore binary files.
* "git clone" can now take "--config key=value" option to set the
repository configuration options that affect the initial checkout.
* "git diff --stat" learned --stat-count option to limit the output of
diffstat report.

* "git grep" learned --break and --heading options, to let users mimic
output format of "ack".
* "git rebase master topci" no longer spews usage hints after giving
"fatal: no such branch: topci" error message.
* "git submodule update" used to stop at the first error updating a
submodule; it now goes on to update other submodules that can be
updated, and reports the ones with errors at the end.
* "git verify-pack" has been rewritten to use the "index-pack" machinery
that is more efficient in reading objects in packfiles.
* test scripts for gitweb tried to run even when CGI-related perl modules
are not installed; it now exits early when they are unavailable.
Also contains various documentation updates and minor miscellaneous
changes.
