Git v1.7.0.6 Release Notes
==========================

Fixes since v1.7.0.5
--------------------

 * "git diff --stat" used "int" to count the size of differences,
   which could result in overflowing.

 * "git rev-list --abbrev-commit" defaulted to 40-byte abbreviations, unlike
   newer tools in the git toolset.

And other minor fixes and documentation updates.
Title: Git v1.7.0.6 Release Notes
Summary
This release of Git fixes issues with 'git diff --stat' to prevent integer overflows when counting the size of differences, and updates 'git rev-list --abbrev-commit' to match the default abbreviation length used by newer tools in the git toolset, along with other minor fixes and documentation updates to improve overall stability and consistency.
