[ANNOUNCE] GIT 1.3.3



The latest maintenance release GIT 1.3.3 is available at the
usual places:

http://www.kernel.org/pub/software/scm/git/

git-1.3.3.tar.{gz,bz2} (tarball)
RPMS/$arch/git-*-1.3.3-1.$arch.rpm (RPM)

This contains two notable non-fixes:

(1) Future-proofing configuration file syntax by Linus.
Nothing in 1.3.X series takes advantage of it, but it is
there so 1.3.3 would not barf in a repository that you
previously used later versions of git to manipulate its
configuration file.

(2) core.prefersymlinkrefs configuration can be set in the
configuration file while bisecting a project that wants to
use .git/HEAD symbolic link in its historical version
(notably Linux kernel around January this year).
