Git v1.7.11.2 Release Notes
|
|
===========================
|
|
|
|
Fixes since v1.7.11.1
|
|
---------------------
|
|
|
|
* On Cygwin, the platform pread(2) is not thread safe, just like our
|
|
own compat/ emulation, and cannot be used in the index-pack
|
|
program. Makefile variable NO_THREAD_SAFE_PREAD can be defined to
|
|
avoid use of this function in a threaded program.
|
|
|
|
* "git add" allows adding a regular file to the path where a
|
|
submodule used to exist, but "git update-index" does not allow an
|
|
equivalent operation to Porcelain writers.
|
|
|
|
* "git archive" incorrectly computed the header checksum; the symptom
|
|
was observed only when using pathnames with hi-bit set.
|
|
|
|
* "git blame" did not try to make sure that the abbreviated commit
|
|
object names in its output are unique.
|
|
|
|
* Running "git bundle verify" on a bundle that records a complete
|
|
history said "it requires these 0 commits".
|
|
|
|
* "git clone --single-branch" to clone a single branch did not limit
|
|
the cloning to the specified branch.
|
|
|
|
* "git diff --no-index" did not correctly handle relative paths and
|
|
did not correctly give exit codes when run under "--quiet" option.
|
|
|
|
* "git diff --no-index" did not work with pagers correctly.
|
|
|
|
* "git diff COPYING HEAD:COPYING" gave a nonsense error message that
|
|
claimed that the tree-ish HEAD did not have COPYING in it.
|
|
|
|
* When "git log" gets "--simplify-merges/by-decoration" together with
|
|
"--first-parent", the combination of these options makes the
|
|
simplification logic to use in-core commit objects that haven't
|
|
been examined for relevance, either producing incorrect result or
|
|
taking too long to produce any output. Teach the simplification
|
|
logic to ignore commits that the first-parent traversal logic
|
|
ignored when both are in effect to work around the issue.
|
|
|
|
* "git ls-files --exclude=t -i" did not consider anything under t/ as
|
|
excluded, as it did not pay attention to exclusion of leading paths
|
|
while walking the index. Other two users of excluded() are also
|
|
updated.
|
|
|
|
* "git request-pull $url dev" when the tip of "dev" branch was tagged
|
|
with "ext4-for-linus" used the contents from the tag in the output
|
|
but still asked the "dev" branch to be pulled, not the tag.
|
|
|
|
Also contains minor typofixes and documentation updates.
