version-control

Git 2.54, released April 20, introduces a new history-editing command inspired by Jujutsu, config-based hooks, geometric repacking by default, and a pluggable object database built over two years and roughly 400 commits.

Git 2.53 defaults Rust support in both build systems and unlocks geometric repacking for partial clones, setting the stage for a Git 3.0 release by late 2026.
