- Update to version 1.7.9.2:
* Bash completion script (in contrib/) did not like a pattern that
begins with a dash to be passed to __git_ps1 helper function.
* Adaptation of the bash completion script (in contrib/) for zsh
incorrectly listed all subcommands when "git <TAB><TAB>" was given
to ask for list of porcelain subcommands.
* The build procedure for profile-directed optimized binary was not
working very well.
* Some systems need to explicitly link -lcharset to get locale_charset().
* t5541 ignored user-supplied port number used for HTTP server testing.
* The error message emitted when we see an empty loose object was
not phrased correctly.
* The code to ask for password did not fall back to the terminal
input when GIT_ASKPASS is set but does not work (e.g. lack of X
with GUI askpass helper).
* We failed to give the true terminal width to any subcommand when
they are invoked with the pager, i.e. "git -p cmd".
* map_user() was not rewriting its output correctly, which resulted
in the user visible symptom that "git blame -e" sometimes showed
excess '>' at the end of email addresses.
* "git checkout -b" did not allow switching out of an unborn branch.
* When you have both .../foo and .../foo.git, "git clone .../foo" did not
favor the former but the latter.
* "git commit" refused to create a commit when entries added with
"add -N" remained in the index, without telling Git what their content
in the next commit should be. We should have created the commit without
these paths.
* "git diff --stat" said "files", "insertions", and "deletions" even
when it is showing one "file", one "insertion" or one "deletion".
* The output from "git diff --stat" for two paths that have the same
