- patch 2.7.5
Fixes a functional regression introduced by the previous security

relative symbolic links.
[boo#918058]
+ Allow arbitrary symlink targets again.
+ Do not change permissions if there isn't an explicit mode
change.
+ Fix indentation heuristic for context diffs.
- Please also note that the previous update fixed security bugs
boo#915328 and boo#915329 even though it did not say so.
