git-send-email passes on an 8bit mail as-is even if it does not
declare a content-type. Because the user can edit email between
format-patch and send-email, such invalid mails are unfortunately not
very hard to come by.
Make git-send-email stop and ask about the encoding to use if it
encounters any such mail. Also provide a configuration setting to
permanently configure an encoding.

We have the '+' modifiier which helps combine format specifiers which
may possibly be empty, e.g. '%s%+b%n'.
Introduce an analogous ' ' (space) modifier which adds a space before
non-empty items. This helps assemble "one line type" format specifiers.

By default, git uses the version string as the signature for all
patches output by format-patch. Many employers (mine included)
require the use of a signature on all outgoing mails. In a
format-patch | send-email workflow there isn't an easy way to modify
the signature without breaking the pipe and manually replacing the
version string with the signature required. Instead of doing all that
work, add an option (--signature) and a config variable
(format.signature) to replace the default git version signature when
formatting patches.
This does modify the original behavior of format-patch a bit. First
off the version string is now placed in the cover letter by default.
Secondly, once the configuration variable format.signature is added
to the .config file there is no way to revert back to the default
git version signature. Instead, specifying the --no-signature option
will remove the signature from the patches entirely.

The "a" and "d" commands to ‘add --patch’ (accept/reject rest of file)
interact with "j", "g", and "/" (skip some hunks) in a perhaps
confusing way: after accepting or rejecting all _later_ hunks in the
file, they return to the earlier, skipped hunks and prompt the user
about them again.
This behavior can be very useful in practice. One can still accept or
reject _all_ undecided hunks in a file by using the "g" command to
move to hunk #1 first.

Suppose you want to edit all files that contain a specific search term.
Of course, you can do something totally trivial such as
git grep -z -e <term> | xargs -0r vi +/<term>
but maybe you are happy that the same will be achieved by
git grep -Ovi <term>
now.

This adds an option to open the matching files in the pager, and if the
pager happens to be "less" (or "vi") and there is only one grep pattern,
it also jumps to the first match right away.
The short option was chose as '-O' to avoid clashes with GNU grep's
options (as suggested by Junio).
So, 'git grep -O abc' is a short form for 'less +/abc $(grep -l abc)'
except that it works also with spaces in file names, and it does not
start the pager if there was no matching file.

Add a --count option that, instead of actually listing the commits,
merely counts them.
This is mostly geared towards script use, and to this end it acts
specially when used with --left-right: it outputs the left and right
counts separately. Previously, scripts would have to run a shell loop
or small inline script over to achieve the same. (Without
--left-right, a simple |wc -l does the job.)

In some use cases it is not desirable that the diff family considers
submodules that only contain untracked content as dirty. This may happen
e.g. when the submodule is not under the developers control and not all
build generated files have been added to .gitignore by the upstream
developers. Using the "untracked" parameter for the "--ignore-submodules"
option disables checking for untracked content and lets git diff report
them as changed only when they have new commits or modified content.
Sometimes it is not wanted to have submodules show up as changed when they
just contain changes to their work tree. An example for that are scripts
which just want to check for submodule commits while ignoring any changes
to the work tree. Also users having large submodules known not to change
might want to use this option, as the - sometimes substantial - time it
takes to scan the submodule work tree(s) is saved.

The rebase --preserve-merges facility presents a list of commits
in its instruction sheet and uses a separate table to keep
track of their parents. Unfortunately, in practice this means
that with -p after most attempts to rearrange patches, some
commits have the "wrong" parent and the resulting history is
rarely what the caller expected.
Yes, it would be nice to fix that. But first, add a warning to the
manual to help the uninitiated understand what is going on.

Introduce a new configuration variable, "core.eol", that allows the user
to set which line endings to use for end-of-line-normalized files in the
working directory. It defaults to "native", which means CRLF on Windows
and LF everywhere else.
Note that "core.autocrlf" overrides core.eol. This means that
[core]
autocrlf = true
puts CRLFs in the working directory even if core.eol is set to "lf".

In the detailed explanation of how the revision machinery does history
simplification, the current text presents an example history and explains
how various options of the revision machinery affect the resulting list
of commits. The first simplification mode mentioned is the default mode,
in which a number of commits is omitted from the example graph according
to the history simplification rules. The text states (among other things)
that commit "C was considered via N, but is TREESAME", and therefore
omitted. However, the accompanying graph does not list the effect on the
implicit parentage, i.e. that commit I takes C's place as a parent of N.
Running 'git rev-list --parents P' does indeed list I as a second parent
of N, and the accompanying graph should therefore also show this line.

PSGI is an interface between Perl web applications and web servers, and
Plack is a Perl module and toolkit that contains PSGI middleware, helpers
and adapters to web servers; see http://plackperl.org
PSGI and Plack are inspired by Python's WSGI and Ruby's Rack (and
probably JavaScript's Jack/JSGI).
Plack core distribution includes HTTP::Server::PSGI, a reference PSGI
standalone web server implementation. 'plackup' is a command line
launcher to run PSGI applications from command line, connecting web
app to a web server via Plack::Runner module. By default it uses
HTTP::Server::PSGI as a web server.
git-instaweb generates gitweb.psgi wrapper (in $GIT_DIR/gitweb). This
wrapper uses Plack::App::WrapCGI to compile gitweb.cgi (which is a CGI
script) into a PSGI application using CGI::Compile and CGI::Emulate::PSGI.
git-instaweb then runs this wrapper, using by default HTTP::Server::PSGI
standalone Perl server, via Plack::Runner.
The configuration for 'plackup' is currently embedded in generated
gitweb.psgi wrapper, instead of using httpd.conf ($conf).
To run git-instaweb with '--httpd=plackup', you need to have instaled
Plack core, CGI::Emulate::PSGI, CGI::Compile. Those modules have to be
available for Perl scripts (which can be done for example by setting
PERL5LIB environment variable). This is currently not documented.
