Git v2.5.3 Release Notes
========================

Fixes since v2.5.2
------------------

* The experimental untracked-cache feature were buggy when paths with
a few levels of subdirectories are involved.

* Recent versions of scripted "git am" has a performance regression
in "git am --skip" codepath, which no longer exists in the
built-in version on the 'master' front. Fix the regression in

and older.

clean-ups.
