|  | *WARNING: This version contains a schema change.* | 
|  |  | 
|  | Schema upgrade: |

|  |  | 
|  | This version has some major bug fixes for JGit.  I strongly encourage people to upgrade, we had a number of JGit bugs identified last week, all of them should be fixed in this release. |

|  | == New Features | 
|  | * Allow users to subscribe to submitted change events | 
|  | + | 
|  | Someone asked me on an IRC channel to have Gerrit send emails when changes are actually merged into a project.  This is what triggered the schema change; there is a new checkbox on the Watched Projects list under Settings to subscribe to these email notifications. | 
|  |  |

|  | + |

|  |  | 
|  | * Record the remote host name in the reflogs | 
|  | * Record the starting revision expression used when makin... | 
|  | + | 
|  | The reflogs now contain the remote user's IP address when Gerrit makes edits, resulting in slightly more detail than was there before. | 
|  |  | 
|  | == Bug Fixes | 
|  | * Make sure only valid ObjectIds can be passed into git d... | 
|  | * GERRIT-92  Upgrade JGit to 0.4.0-262-g3c268c8 |
