Git 2.55 Enables Rust by Default, Adds History Fixup and Repacking Enhancements
Git 2.55 ships with Rust support enabled by default (opt-out via NO_RUST), while keeping Rust tooling optional. It also adds the git history fixup for applying changes to older staged commits and improves repacking with incremental multi-pack indexes; the history sub-command remains experimental. Full release notes and a GitHub blog overview provide more details.
