+- updated to version 1.8.0.2:
+
+     * Various codepaths have workaround for a common misconfiguration to
+       spell "UTF-8" as "utf8", but it was not used uniformly.  Most
+       notably, mailinfo (which is used by "git am") lacked this support.
+
+     * We failed to mention a file without any content change but whose
+       permission bit was modified, or (worse yet) a new file without any
+       content in the "git diff --stat" output.
+
+     * When "--stat-count" hides a diffstat for binary contents, the total
+       number of added and removed lines at the bottom was computed
+       incorrectly.
+
+     * When "--stat-count" hides a diffstat for unmerged paths, the total
+       number of affected files at the bottom of the "diff --stat" output
+       was computed incorrectly.
+
+     * "diff --shortstat" miscounted the total number of affected files
+       when there were unmerged paths.
+
+     * "git p4" used to try expanding malformed "$keyword$" that spans
+       across multiple lines.
+
+     * "git update-ref -d --deref SYM" to delete a ref through a symbolic
+       ref that points to it did not remove it correctly.
+
+     * Syntax highlighting in "gitweb" was not quite working.
+
+    Also contains other minor fixes and documentation updates.
