The 2.16 series release notes contain important changes in this release series.

Security Fixes

• Packages have been updated to the latest security versions.

Bug Fixes

• Viewing the profile of a user with a username similar to a common HTML error page, for example 404-html, would display the error page and not the user's profile.
• Reattaching a forked repository to its parent after changing the visibility would fail for the second and subsequent forks.

Known Issues

• On a freshly set up GitHub Enterprise without any users, an attacker could create the first admin user.
• Custom firewall rules aren't maintained during an upgrade.
• svn checkout may timeout while the repository data cache is being built. In most cases, subsequent svn checkout attempts will succeed.
• Git LFS tracked files uploaded through the web interface are incorrectly added directly to the repository.
• Issues cannot be closed if they contain a permalink to a blob in the same repository where the file path is longer than 255 characters.
• Resque workers may not be cleaned up following a configuration run leading to a growing number of stale workers which in turn could lead to high memory consumption.

Thanks!
