* The API to iterate over all the refs (i.e. for_each_ref(), etc.)
has been revamped.
+ * The handling of the "text = auto" attribute has been updated.
+ $ echo "* text=auto eol=crlf" >.gitattributes
+ used to have the same effect as
+ $ echo "* text=auto eol=crlf" >.gitattributes
+ $ git config core.eol crlf
+ i.e. declaring all files are text; the combination now is
+ equivalent to doing
+ $ git config core.autocrlf true

* A few tests that specifically target "git rebase -i" have been
added.
