Git v2.38 Release Notes
2
=======================
3
4
+Performance, Internal Implementation, Development Support etc.
5
+
6
+ * Collection of what is referenced by objects in promisor packs have
7
+ been optimized to inspect these objects in the in-pack order.
8
+ (merge 18c08abc82 jk/optim-promisor-object-enumeration later to maint).
9
+
10
+ * Introduce a helper to see if a branch is already being worked on
11
+ (hence should not be newly checked out in a working tree), which
12
+ performs much better than the existing find_shared_symref() to
13
+ replace many uses of the latter.
14
+
15
+ * Teach "git archive" to (optionally and then by default) avoid
16
+ spawning an external "gzip" process when creating ".tar.gz" (and
17
+ ".tgz") archives.
18
+ (merge 4f4be00d30 rs/archive-with-internal-gzip later to maint).

27
+
28
+ * Certain diff options are currently ignored when combined-diff is
29
+ shown; mark them as incompatible with the feature.
30
+ (merge cfb19ae05f rs/combine-diff-with-incompatible-options later to maint).
31
+
32
+ * Adjust technical/bitmap-format to be formatted by AsciiDoc, and
33
+ add some missing information to the documentation.
