+It's Magit! A Git Porcelain inside Emacs
+=========================================
+
+Magit is a text-based Git user interface that puts an unmatched focus
+on streamlining workflows. Commands are invoked using short mnemonic
+key sequences that take the cursor’s position in the highly actionable
+interface into account to provide context-sensitive behavior.
+
+With Magit you can do nearly everything that you can do when using Git
+on the command-line, but at greater speed and while taking advantage
+of advanced features that previously seemed too daunting to use on a
+daily basis. Many users will find that by using Magit they can become
+more effective Git user.
+
+For more information about Magit, see https://magit.vc
+and https://emacsair.me/2017/09/01/campaign-articles.
+
+Magit v2.13.0 Release Notes
+===========================
+
+Released 2nd June 2018 by Jonas Bernoulli.
+
+I am pleased to announce the release of Magit version 2.13.0,
+representing 166 commits by 18 contributors over two months.
+
+Also see https://emacsair.me/2018/06/02/magit-2.13.
+
+Upcoming breaking changes
+-------------------------
+
+* This is the last release to support Emacs 24.4. Going forward at
+ least Emacs 25.1 is required.
+
+* This is the last release to support Git 1.9.4. Going forward at
+ least Git 2.4 is required.
+
+* Many functions and variables that have been declared obsolete for
+ a while now are going to be removed after this release.
+
+All of these changes will happen on "master", the development branch.
+Note that the snapshot packages on Melpa are built from that branch.
+If you cannot update Emacs and/or Git now, then you should pin Magit
+to Melpa-Stable to stick with this release (and bugfix releases) for
+the time being.
+
+Breaking changes
+----------------
+
+* As announced earlier, the obsolete option `magit-no-confirm-default'
+ has been removed. #3232
+
+Changes since v2.12.0
+---------------------
+
+* Augmenting a file- or blob-visiting buffer with blame information
+ was completely rewritten, making the implementation more robust and
+ adding many new features. It is now possible blame in order to get
+ an answer to the question "what commits remove these lines". It is
+ no longer necessary for the buffer to be put into `read-only-mode',
+ when displaying blame information. New visualization styles were
+ added and users can define their own styles. New commands to visit
+ blobs related to the current chunk were added.
+
+* Added new command `magit-tag-release'. This is a fairly opinionated
+ command and its only use to you might be to serve as a template for
+ your own variant.
+
+* Added new section inserter `magit-insert-ignored-files', which
+ could be added to `magit-status-sections-hook'.
+
+* The mode `global-magit-file-mode' is now enabled by default, making
+ the `magit-file-popup' available on "C-c M-g". 0ec28b97
+
+* Added new commands `magit-log-trace-definition' and
+ `magit-diff-trace-definition', which show a log with diffs about the
+ definition at point. #2588
+
+* Added new commands `magit-edit-line-commit' and
+ `magit-diff-edit-hunk-commit', which allow editing the commit that
+ added the line at point. febe79ba 22b13337
+
+* The interactive prompts for the various reset commands now indicate
+ the branch which is going to be reset. #3438
+
+* Added new option `magit-published-branches', providing an additional
+ safety-net. If you try to modify a commit that has been pushed to
+ one of these branches already, then you are now being asked whether
+ you really want to do that. Do not rely on this exclusively, there
+ are edge-cases that are ambiguous and are not always handled as you
+ might have expected. add4a7f3 ff
+
+* Gravatar images are now being inserted asynchronously. #3452
+
+* After deleting the current worktree, `magit-delete-worktree' now
+ shows the status buffer for another worktree. d9cd4611
+
+* Added new command `magit-worktree-checkout-pull-request'. a3d788ec
+
+* New variable `magit-get-previous-branch-timeout' limits the amount
+ of time spent in `magit-get-previous-branch'. #3457
+
+Fixes since v2.12.0
+-------------------
+
+* The recently added command `magit-branch-pull-request' had various
+ issues concerning pull-requests referencing branches from the
+ upstream repository. #3416 #3417 #3461
+
+* The values of diffstat sections was wrong for sections that
+ represent renamed files. 66d9558f
+
+* Time zones were not handled correctly when calculating times for
+ blame headings. #3443
+
+This release also contains the fixes described in the v2.12.1 release
+notes, as well as other minor improvements, bug fixes, typo fixes, and
+documentation fixes.
