| Git 1.7.12.3 Release Notes
 | |
| ==========================
 | |
| 
 | |
| Fixes since v1.7.12.2
 | |
| ---------------------
 | |
| 
 | |
|  * "git am" mishandled a patch attached as application/octet-stream
 | |
|    (e.g. not text/*); Content-Transfer-Encoding (e.g. base64) was not
 | |
|    honored correctly.
 | |
| 
 | |
|  * It was unclear in the documentation for "git blame" that it is
 | |
|    unnecessary for users to use the "--follow" option.
 | |
| 
 | |
|  * A repository created with "git clone --single" had its fetch
 | |
|    refspecs set up just like a clone without "--single", leading the
 | |
|    subsequent "git fetch" to slurp all the other branches, defeating
 | |
|    the whole point of specifying "only this branch".
 | |
| 
 | |
|  * "git fetch" over http had an old workaround for an unlikely server
 | |
|    misconfiguration; it turns out that this hurts debuggability of the
 | |
|    configuration in general, and has been reverted.
 | |
| 
 | |
|  * "git fetch" over http advertised that it supports "deflate", which
 | |
|    is much less common, and did not advertise the more common "gzip" on
 | |
|    its Accept-Encoding header.
 | |
| 
 | |
|  * "git receive-pack" (the counterpart to "git push") did not give
 | |
|    progress output while processing objects it received to the puser
 | |
|    when run over the smart-http protocol.
 | |
| 
 | |
|  * "git status" honored the ignore=dirty settings in .gitmodules but
 | |
|    "git commit" didn't.
 | |
| 
 | |
| Also contains a handful of documentation updates.
