** Summary changed:
- Please backport git-core 1.5
+ Please backport git-core 1.5.2.3-1 from Gutsy to Feisty
** Description changed:
Originally discussed in bug #111966 but in there I was adviced to create
a new more general bug (the original got sort of abandoned).
Reason for backporting:
Git-core 1.5.x ships with numerous bug fixes and new features. it's also the
feature currently used in linux kernel development.
git-1.5.2.3 builds on Feisty fine.
