+GIT v1.5.2.3 Release Notes
+==========================
+
+Fixes since v1.5.2.2
+--------------------
+
+ * Bugfixes
+
+   - Version 2 pack index format was introduced in version 1.5.2
+     to support pack files that has offset that cannot be
+     represented in 32-bit.  The runtime code to validate such
+     an index mishandled such an index for an empty pack.
+
+   - Commit walkers (most notably, fetch over http protocol)
+     tried to traverse commit objects contained in trees (aka
+     subproject); they shouldn't.
+
+ * Documentation Fixes and Updates
+
+   - git-config --regexp was not documented properly.
