+Git v1.9.2 Release Notes
+========================
+
+Fixes since v1.9.1
+------------------
+
+ * When it is not necessary to edit a commit log message (e.g. "git
+ commit -m" is given a message without specifying "-e"), we used to
+ disable the spawning of the editor by overriding GIT_EDITOR, but
+ this means all the uses of the editor, other than to edit the
+ commit log message, are also affected.
+
+ * "git status --porcelain --branch" showed its output with labels
+ "ahead/behind/gone" translated to the user's locale.
+
+ * "git mv" that moves a submodule forgot to adjust the array that
+ uses to keep track of which submodules were to be moved to update
+ its configuration.
+
+ * Length limit for the pathname used when removing a path in a deep
+ subdirectory has been removed to avoid buffer overflows.
+
+ * The test helper lib-terminal always run an actual test_expect_*
+ when included, which screwed up with the use of skil-all that may
+ have to be done later.
+
+ * "git index-pack" used a wrong variable to name the keep-file in an
+ error message when the file cannot be written or closed.
+
+ * "rebase -i" produced a broken insn sheet when the title of a commit
+ happened to contain '\n' (or ended with '\c') due to a careless use
+ of 'echo'.
+
+ * There were a few instances of 'git-foo' remaining in the
+ documentation that should have been spelled 'git foo'.
+
+ * Serving objects from a shallow repository needs to write a
+ new file to hold the temporary shallow boundaries but it was not
+ cleaned when we exit due to die() or a signal.
+
+ * When "git stash pop" stops after failing to apply the stash
+ (e.g. due to conflicting changes), the stash is not dropped. State
+ that explicitly in the output to let the users know.
+
+ * The labels in "git status" output that describe the nature of
+ conflicts (e.g. "both deleted") were limited to 20 bytes, which was
+ too short for some l10n (e.g. fr).
