Git v2.44 Release Notes
=======================
Backward Compatibility Notes
* "git chekcout -B <branch>" used to allow switching to a branch that
is in use on another worktree, but this was by mistake. The users
need to use "--ignore-other-worktrees" option.
UI, Workflows & Features
* "git add" and "git stash" learned to support the ":(attr:...)"

arguments to the "add/set" subcommands of "git sparse-checkout"
better.
* "git checkout -B <branch> [<start-point>]" allowed a branch that is
in use in another worktree to be updated and checked out, which
might be a bit unexpected. The rule has been tightened, which is a
breaking change. "--ignore-other-worktrees" option is required to
unbreak you, if you are used to the current behaviour that "-B"

* Subject approxidate() and show_date() machinery to OSS-Fuzz.
* A new helper to let us pretend that we called lstat() when we know
our cache_entry is up-to-date via fsmonitor.
* The optimization based on fsmonitor in the "diff --cached"
codepath is resurrected with the "fake-lstat" introduced earlier.
* Test balloon to use C99 "bool" type from <stdbool.h> has been
added.
* "git clone" has been prepared to allow cloning a repository with
non-default hash function into a repository that uses the reftable
backend.
