+Magit v2.8.0 Release Notes
+==========================
+
+Released 21 August 2016 by Jonas Bernoulli.
+
+We are pleased to announce the release of Magit version 2.8.0,
+representing 124 commits by 11 people over 3 months.
+
+Also see http://emacsair.me/2016/08/21/magit-2.8.
+
+Changes since v2.7.0
+--------------------
+
+* Added several new functions that are suitable values for
+ `magit-display-buffer-function':
+ `magit-display-buffer-same-window-except-diff-v1',
+ `magit-display-buffer-fullframe-status-v1',
+ `magit-display-buffer-fullframe-status-topleft-v1', and
+ `magit-display-buffer-fullcolumn-most-v1'.
+
+* Added new commands `magit-list-repositories' and related new option
+ `magit-repolist-columns'.
+
+* Added new commands `magit-list-submodules and related new option
+ `magit-submodule-list-columns'.
+
+* Added new command `magit-branch-orphan'.
+
+* Added new command `magit-log-move-to-parent'.
+
+* Added support for globbing in file arguments of diff and log
+ commands.
+
+* Added support for showing and copying bad commit identified by git
+ bisect.
+
+* Added new option `magit-log-output-coding-system'.
+
+* Added new option `magit-no-message', which can be used to suppress
+ certain messages whose usefulness are being disputed.
+
+* Taught `magit-find-file-noselect' and `magit-find-index-noselect' to
+ use Emacs' encoding detection, and enable `revert-buffer' to work in
+ those buffers. This makes `magit-ediff-*' commands more useful for
+ files with non-standard encoding.
+
+* Taught `magit-insert-bisect-rest' to show the log graph by default.
+ The new option `magit-bisect-show-graph' controls this.
+
+* Taught `magit-insert-submodules' to display more information.
+
+* When a refresh causes the previously current hunk section to
+ disappear, which happens when it was applied in some way, then we
+ attempt to move to a sibling hunk. When that succeeds, then that is
+ now considered a proper move and `magit-section-movement-hook' is
+ called, which in turn may cause the current hunk to be recentered.
+
+* In addition to the directory, each member of the value of option
+ `magit-repository-directories' can now specify the depth to look for
+ repositories inside that directory, overriding the default depth
+ specified using the option `magit-repository-directories-depth'.
+
+* Blob visiting buffers can now be reverted, which is useful when they
+ visit a reference.
+
+* Command `magit-stage' can now be used outside of Magit buffers.
+
+* Commands that read a branch or commit from the user now also offer
+ tags as completion candidates.
+
+* Taught `magit-insert-worktrees' to use relative filenames.
+
+Fixes since v2.7.0
+------------------
+
+* Function `magit-get-all' did split multi-line values into multiple
+ values.
+
+* Function `magit-subtree-read-prefix' which is used in order to read
+ the `--prefix' argument from the subtree popup was missing.
+
+* Command `magit-blame' failed when run in a blob buffer for a file
+ located in a subdirectory.
+
+* Command `magit-diff-visit-file' didn't visit a blob when called
+ inside a `magit-stash-mode' buffer.
+
+* Command `magit-submodule-add' did not allow picking a path that
+ does not exist yet and read the path before the url.
+
+* Command `magit-submodule-setup' did update existing modules, which
+ can cause them to become detached.
+
+* Command `magit-popup-describe-function' could create an extra window
+ on wide frames.
+
+* Commands `magit-diff-show-or-scroll-{up,down}' failed to scroll
+ stash buffers.
+
+* Mode `git-rebase-mode' did not respect the Git variable
+ `core.commentChar'.
+
+* Sections in the process buffer sometimes had invalid parent
+ sections, causing movement and visibility commands to fail, and
+ expected Git errors not to be handled gracefully in some cases.
+
+* Merges where not performed asynchronously, which made it impossible
+ to read a passphrase from the user, needed for commit signing.
+
+* In bare repositories tracked files were listed as deleted.
+
+This release also contains typofixes, documentation updates, code
+clean-ups, bug fixes, and other small to medium improvements.
