Git v2.51 Release Notes
=======================
UI, Workflows & Features
------------------------
* Userdiff patterns for the R language have been added.
* Documentation for "git send-email" has been updated with a bit more
credential helper and OAuth information.
* "git cat-file --batch" learns to understand %(objectmode) atom to
allow the caller to tell missing objects (due to repository
corruption) and submodules (whose commit objects are OK to be
missing) apart.
* "git diff --no-index dirA dirB" can limit the comparison with
pathspec at the end of the command line, just like normal "git
diff".
Performance, Internal Implementation, Development Support etc.
--------------------------------------------------------------
* "git pack-objects" learned to find delta bases from blobs at the
same path, using the --path-walk API.
