Changes in magit 0.8:

* By setting magit-repo-dirs, you can get better repo completion.
  Magit will offer all subdirectories (upto magit-repo-dirs level
  deep) of the listed directories when magit-status asks for a
  directory to work on.

  You can get the old behavior with a double prefix to magit-status.

* Hitting 'c' or 'C' while resolving a conflict in the middle of a
  rebase will offer to continue the rebase instead of trying to commit
  your changes.

* Pulling will ask which branch to pull from when you don't have a
  default branch configured.

* Switching to a remote branch will offer to create a local tracking
  branch for it.

* Hitting C-c C-s while editing a commit message will toggle the
  "--signoff" option.

* Hitting 's' on the "Untracked files" section title will stage all
  untracked files.

* Hitting 'C-u S' will stage all untracked and tracked files.

* Performance improvements in the status buffer.

* Bug fixes to make Magit work better with newer Gits.

Changes in magit 0.7:

* Tagging, on 't' and 'T'.

* Stashing, on 'z' and 'Z'.

* Wazzup, on 'w'.  Wazzup gives you an overview over how other
  branches relate to the current one.

* There is more control over pushing.  'P' now takes a prefix argument
  and pushing a branch without a default remote will ask for one.

* Logs have changed a bit: 'l' shows the traditional brief log, and
  'L' shows a more verbose log.  Use the prefix arg to specify the
  range of the log.

* M-x magit-status doesn't prompt anymore for a directory when invoked
  from within a Git repository.  Use C-u to force a prompt.

* When you have nothing staged, 'c' will now explicitly ask whether to
  commit everything instead of just going ahead and do it.  This can
  be customized.

* The digit keys '1', '2', '3', and '4' now show sections on the
  respective level and hide everything below.  With Meta, they work on
  all sections; without, they work only on sections that are a parent
  or child of the current section.

* Typing '+' and '-' will change the size of hunks, via the "-U"
  option to git diff.  '0' resets hunks to their default size.

* Typing 'k' on the "Untracked files" section title will offer to
  delete all untracked files.

* Magit understands a bit of git-svn: the status buffer shows unpushed
  and unpulled commits, 'N r' runs git svn rebase, and 'N c' runs git
  svn dcommit.

* Magit now also works when the direcory is accessed via tramp.

* M-x magit-status can also create new repositories when given a
  directory that is not a Git repository.

* Magit works better with oldish Gits that don't understand "--graph",
  for example.

* The name of the Git program and common options for it can be
  customized.

Changes in magit 0.6:

Almost everything has changed.  Please read the manual again.  Some
highlights:

* Magit now works with Git 1.6.0.  (John Wiegley)

* Support for interactive rewriting.

* Sections can be shown and hidden.

* Staging, unstaging, applying, reverting and discarding changes can
  now be done line-by-line, not only hunk-by-hunk.
