== GPG ==

The GPG support in bundle <code>org.eclipse.jgit.gpg.bc</code> now also honors the <tt>'''GNUPGHOME'''</tt> environment variable. If set and containing a valid path of a directory, that directory is used as the GPG home directory -- the one that contains the GPG keys. If this environment variable is not set, JGit by default uses <tt>%APPDATA%\gnupg</tt> on Windows and <tt>~/.gnupg</tt> on other operating systems.

If neither is appropriate, users can set the Java system property <tt>'''jgit.gpg.home'''</tt> to define the path. If set and containing a valid directory path, that directory is used (even if GNUPGHOME is also set).

== Dependencies ==

* Bundle <code>org.eclipse.jgit.gpg.bc</code> newly requires [https://www.bouncycastle.org/ Bouncy Castle] '''1.69''' (previously 1.65).
* Bundle <code>org.eclipse.jgit.ssh.apache</code> newly requires [https://mina.apache.org/sshd-project/ Apache MINA sshd] '''2.7.0''' (previously 2.6.0). As always, this bundle may not work with newer versions of Apache MINA sshd because of incompatible upstream API changes.

== Other Changes ==
