The latest maintenance release Git 1.7.2.1 is available at the
usual places:

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

git-1.7.2.1.tar.{gz,bz2} (source tarball)
git-htmldocs-1.7.2.1.tar.{gz,bz2} (preformatted docs)
git-manpages-1.7.2.1.tar.{gz,bz2} (preformatted docs)

The RPM binary packages for a few architectures are found in:

RPMS/$arch/git-*-1.7.2.1-1.fc11.$arch.rpm (RPM)

Two fixes to segfaulting bugs in this release have also been merged to
produce maintenance releases for older codebase, 1.7.0.7 and 1.7.1.2,
primarily for people who do not want to have .2 in the third digit of the
version of git they use for whatever reason ;-)


Git v1.7.2.1 Release Notes
==========================

Fixes since v1.7.2
------------------

* "git instaweb" wasn't useful when your Apache was installed under a
name other than apache2 (e.g. "httpd").

* Similarly, "git web--browse" (invoked by "git help -w") learned that
chrome browser is sometimes called google-chrome.

* An overlong line after ".gitdir: " in a git file caused out of bounds
access to an array on the stack.

* "git config --path conf.var" to attempt to expand a variable conf.var
that uses "~/" short-hand segfaulted when $HOME environment variable
was not set.

* Documentation on Cygwin failed to build.

* The error message from "git pull blarg" when 'blarg' is an unknown
remote name has been improved.

And other minor fixes and documentation updates.
