GIT v1.5.5.5 Release Notes
==========================

I personally do not think there is any reason anybody should want to
run v1.5.5.X series these days, because 'master' version is always
more stable than any tagged released version of git.

This is primarily to futureproof "git-shell" to accept requests
without a dash between "git" and subcommand name (e.g. "git
upload-pack") which the newer client will start to make sometime in
the future.

Summary

The GIT v1.5.5.5 release is considered less stable than the 'master' version, but includes a futureproof update to 'git-shell' for compatibility with upcoming client requests, specifically to accept requests without a dash between 'git' and subcommand name, such as 'git upload-pack', which will be implemented in future client versions.
