Update Information:

    - New Features
    -      Permission denied errors are shown when accessing unreachable local Git
    -      repositories. (Bug #1765)
    -      Previously, if a Git repository was used and there wasn’t sufficient
    -      file permissions to access it, a vague error saying that the repository
    -      was unreachable would appear. Now we check to find out if it’s a
    -      permissions error, and display an appropriate error message.
    - Performance Improvements
    -      Reduce the number of SQL queries in the legacy JSON API.
    -      Some of the legacy API handlers performed more queries than necessary.
    -      We now perform fewer queries. Patch by Ben Hollis.
    - Bug Fixes
    -      Fixed several small problems in the Admin UI from bundling Django media
    -      files.
    -      For historical reasons, we’ve always shipped the Django Admin media
    -      files as part of Review Board. This comes from a time before rb-site
    -      existed, when we needed a single media directory with everything inside
    -      it. However, it just introduces various compatibility problems these
    -      days. We now make use of the media files that are installed with Django
    -      Fixed a breakage in the diff viewer with SCons files. (Bug #1864)
    -      Any SCons files put up for review would break the diff viewer, due to a
    -      typo when looking up information on that type of file.
    -      Added the Parent Diff field to the New Review Request page. (Bug #1651)
    -      The Parent Diff field was missing for Git, Bazaar, and Mercurial,
    -      making it impossible to upload a parent diff through the web UI when
    -      creating a new review request.
    -      Fixed some common installation problems with the generated
    -      lighttpd.conf file. (Bug #1618, Bug #1639)
    -      Several installs with lighttpd would give 404 Not Found errors, due to
    -      some configuration problems in the sample config file.
    -      Fixed support for multiple e-mail addresses assigned to a group.
    -      (Bug #1661)
    -      Multiple e-mail addresses for a group were supported, but broken in
    -      1.5. We now split them out properly.
    -      The screenshot area is no longer hidden immediately after uploading a
    -      screenshot.
    -      Fixed an error in the web API when serializing to XML.
    -      Fixed broken intervals for search updating in the generated crontab
    -      file.
    -      The intervals would cause a full index to happen at every minute at 2AM
    -      on Sundays, rather than only at 2AM.
    -      Fixed an error when permanently deleting a review request.
    -      The administrator-specific ability to permanently delete a review
    -      request would succeed but generate an error page.
