Git 1.7.4-rc2Edit

From the official release announcement to the Git mailing list:

A release candidate Git 1.7.4-rc2 is available at the usual places
for testing:

 http://www.kernel.org/pub/software/scm/git/

 git-1.7.4.rc2.tar.{gz,bz2}			(source tarball)
 git-htmldocs-1.7.4.rc2.tar.{gz,bz2}		(preformatted docs)
