[ANNOUNCE] GIT 1.5.4-rc2

[Junio C Hamano]

GIT 1.5.4-rc2 is available at the usual places:

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

  git-1.5.4.rc2.tar.{gz,bz2}			(tarball)
  git-htmldocs-1.5.4.rc2.tar.{gz,bz2}		(preformatted docs)
  git-manpages-1.5.4.rc2.tar.{gz,bz2}		(preformatted docs)
  testing/*-1.5.4.rc2-1.*.rpm			(RPM)

This round we still did not manage to keep non-fixes out, and
you can now tell "git commit" to keep the "# comment" lines in
the message, but otherwise the changes are all fixes, fixes and
fixes.
