Add a note about the branches -> modules mapping to LIMITATIONS because
I really think it should be noted there and not just at the end of
the installation step-by-step HOWTO.
I used "git branches" there and changed "heads" to "branches" in
my section about database configuration. I'm reluctant to replace
all occourences of "head" with "branch" though because you always
have to say "git branch" because CVS also has the concept of
branches. You can say "head" though, because there is no such
concept in CVS. In all the existing occourences of head other than
the one I changed I think "head" flows better in the text.

Add a new option to git-format-patch, entitled --subject-prefix that allows
control of the subject prefix '[PATCH]'. Using this option, the text 'PATCH' is
replaced with whatever input is provided to the option. This allows easily
generating patches like '[PATCH 2.6.21-rc3]' or properly numbered series like
'[-mm3 PATCH N/M]'. This patch provides the implementation and documentation.

Prior to 1.5.0 the git-lost-found utility was useful to locate
commits that were not referenced by any ref. These were often
amends, or resets, or tips of branches that had been deleted.
Being able to locate a 'lost' commit and recover it by creating a
new branch was a useful feature in those days.
Unfortunately 1.5.0 added the reflogs to the reachability analysis
performed by git-fsck, which means that most commits users would
consider to be lost are still reachable through a reflog. So most
(or all!) commits are reachable, and nothing gets output from
git-lost-found.
Now git-fsck can be told to ignore reflogs during its reachability
analysis, making git-lost-found useful again to locate commits
that are no longer referenced by a ref itself, but may still be
referenced by a reflog.
