I am pleased to announce the release of Stacked Git 0.19.

The big feature for this release is Python 3 support, but 0.19 also
contains some important bug fixes and more robust test infrastructure.

The full release notes follow.

Cheers,
Pete

                       Stacked Git 0.19 released
                       -------------------------

StGit is a Python application providing functionality similar to Quilt
(i.e. pushing/popping patches to/from a stack) on top of Git. These
operations are performed using Git commands, and the patches are stored
as Git commit objects, allowing easy merging of the StGit patches into
other repositories using standard Git functionality.

- Config booleans are now parsed similarly to git-config.

  characters.  Also correctly decode email headers containing quoted
  encoded words.

  support.
