That's an interesting git command, but shouldn't you use maint or v3.3.3 rather than v3.3.0 ?
And maybe it's better to look at the bug tracker for finding the most important and visible changes : http://bugs.archlinux.org/index.php?do=index&tasks=&project=3&due=69&status[]=
But I think your list is already mostly fine, except it miss the single most important change IMO :)

Use sync.c for upgrade transaction prepare and commit
This patch utilizes the power of sync.c to fix FS#3492 and FS#5798. Now an upgrade transaction is just a sync transaction internally (in alpm), so all sync features are available with -U as well: * conflict resolving * sync dependencies from sync repos * remove unresolvable targets
That's two long standing bugs, to say the least.
I mention one more thing (which is related to this patch):
The next major pacman release _always_ asks for user confirmation with all -U and -R operations. This behaviour change should be added to (archlinux.org's?) NEWS, since it can break scripts. Scripts are advised use --noconfirm switch to skip user interaction (if needed).

Anything for translator?
