[ANNOUNCE] Git v1.8.1.4

[ANNOUNCE] Git v1.8.1.4

[Junio C Hamano]

The latest maintenance release Git v1.8.1.4 is now available at the
usual places.

This is primarily to tighten the host verification when imap-send is
talking to your mail server via TLS/SSL.  The topic that was merged to
the tip of 'maint' track consists of 3 patches and is based on the
1.7.6 maintenance track.  This is to make it easier for the distro
folks to merge the topic to their older maintenance branches to issue
hotfix binary releases if they wanted to.

This release itself also contains many small updates to the
user-manual.
