* "git fsck" by default checks the packfiles (i.e. "--full" is the
default); you can turn it off with "git fsck --no-full".

* "git log --decorate" shows the location of HEAD as well.
+ * "git rebase -i" learned "reword" that acts like "edit" but immediately
+ starts an editor to tweak the log message without returning control to
+ the shell, which is done by "edit" to give an opportunity to tweak the
+ contents.
