Start 1.6.5 cycle
The next major release will be 1.6.5, hopefully with a shorter cycle than the 1.6.4 cycle. After that in 1.7.0 we can make potentially backward incompatible changes if necessary. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

+GIT v1.6.5 Release Notes
2
+========================
3
+
4
+In git 1.7.0, which is planned to be the release after 1.6.5, "git push"
5
+into a branch that is currently checked out will be refused by default.
6
+
7
+You can choose what should happen upon such a push by setting the
8
+configuration variable receive.denyCurrentBranch in the receiving
9
+repository.
10
+
11
+Also, "git push $there :$killed" to delete the branch $killed in a remote
12
+repository $there, when $killed branch is the current branch pointed at by
13
+its HEAD, will be refused by default.
14
+
15
+You can choose what should happen upon such a push by setting the
16
+configuration variable receive.denyDeleteCurrent in the receiving
17
+repository.
18
+
19
+To ease the transition plan, the receiving repository of such a
20
+push running this release will issue a big warning when the
21
+configuration variable is missing. Please refer to:

+transition plan.
