 * The configuration parser had a buffer overflow while parsing an overlong
   value.
 
+* pruning reflog entries that are unreachable from the tip of the ref
+  during "git reflog prune" (hence "git gc") was very inefficient.
+
+* "git-add -p" lacked a way to say "q"uit to refuse staging any hunks for
+  the remaining paths.  You had to say "d" and then ^C.
+
 * "git-checkout <tree-ish> <submodule>" did not update the index entry at
   the named path; it now does.
 
+* "git-fast-export" choked when seeing a tag that does not point at commit.
+
 * "git init" segfaulted when given an overlong template location via
   the --template= option.
