- updated: Gitblit GO is now monolithic like the WAR build. (issue 30)  
Either the dependencies are downloaded on first execution OR the dependencies are bundled, either way you would need the dependencies.  This change helps adoption of GO in environments without an internet connection or with a restricted connection.
- added: Groovy 1.8.4 and sample pre- and post- push Groovy hook scripts.  Hook scripts can be set per-repository or globally for all repositories.  
Unfortunately this adds another 6 MB to the 8MB Gitblit package, but it allows for a *very* powerful, flexible, platform-independent hook script mechanism.  
    **New:** *groovy.scriptsFolder = groovy*  
    **New:** *groovy.preReceiveScripts =*  
    **New:** *groovy.postReceiveScripts =*
- added: New key for mailing lists.  This is _currently_ used in conjunction with the example *sendemail.groovy* post-receive hook script.  
    **New:** *mail.mailingLists =*
- added: new default user service implementation: com.gitblit.ConfigUserService (users.conf)  
This user service implementation allows for serialization and deserialization of more sophisticated Gitblit User objects and will open the door for more advanced Gitblit features. For upgrading installations, a `users.conf` file will automatically be created for you from your existing `users.properties` file on your first launch of Gitblit.  You will have to manually set *realm.userService=users.conf* to switch to the new user service.  The original `users.properties` file and it's corresponding implementation are deprecated.  
    **New:** *realm.userService = users.conf*
- added: Teams for specifying user-repository access in bulk
- added: Gitblit Express bundle to get started running Gitblit on RedHat's OpenShift cloud
- added: optional Gravatar integration  
    **New:** *web.allowGravatar = true*   
- added: multi-repository activity page.  this is a timeline of commit activity over the last N days for one or more repositories.  
   **New:** *web.activityDuration = 14*  
   **New:** *web.timeFormat = HH:mm*  
   **New:** *web.datestampLongFormat = EEEE, MMMM d, yyyy*  
- fixed: several a bugs in FileUserService related to cleaning up old repository permissions on a rename or delete
- added: optional flash-based 1-step *copy to clipboard* of the primary repository url
- added: javascript-based 3-step (click, ctrl+c, enter) *copy to clipboard* of the primary repository url
   **New:** *web.allowFlashCopyToClipboard = true*  
- improved: empty repositories now link to the *empty repository* page which gives some direction to the user for the next step in using Gitblit.  This page displays the primary push/clone url of the repository and gives sample syntax for the git command-line client. (issue 31)
- improved: unit testing framework has been migrated to JUnit4 syntax and the test suite has been redesigned to run all unit tests, including rpc, federation, and git push/clone tests
