| Git v2.6.4 Release Notes
 | |
| ========================
 | |
| 
 | |
| Fixes since v2.6.3
 | |
| ------------------
 | |
| 
 | |
|  * The "configure" script did not test for -lpthread correctly, which
 | |
|    upset some linkers.
 | |
| 
 | |
|  * Add support for talking http/https over socks proxy.
 | |
| 
 | |
|  * Portability fix for Windows, which may rewrite $SHELL variable using
 | |
|    non-POSIX paths.
 | |
| 
 | |
|  * We now consistently allow all hooks to ignore their standard input,
 | |
|    rather than having git complain of SIGPIPE.
 | |
| 
 | |
|  * Fix shell quoting in contrib script.
 | |
| 
 | |
|  * Test portability fix for a topic in v2.6.1.
 | |
| 
 | |
|  * Allow tilde-expansion in some http config variables.
 | |
| 
 | |
|  * Give a useful special case "diff/show --word-diff-regex=." as an
 | |
|    example in the documentation.
 | |
| 
 | |
|  * Fix for a corner case in filter-branch.
 | |
| 
 | |
|  * Make git-p4 work on a detached head.
 | |
| 
 | |
|  * Documentation clarification for "check-ignore" without "--verbose".
 | |
| 
 | |
|  * Just like the working tree is cleaned up when the user cancelled
 | |
|    submission in P4Submit.applyCommit(), clean up the mess if "p4
 | |
|    submit" fails.
 | |
| 
 | |
|  * Having a leftover .idx file without corresponding .pack file in
 | |
|    the repository hurts performance; "git gc" learned to prune them.
 | |
| 
 | |
|  * The code to prepare the working tree side of temporary directory
 | |
|    for the "dir-diff" feature forgot that symbolic links need not be
 | |
|    copied (or symlinked) to the temporary area, as the code already
 | |
|    special cases and overwrites them.  Besides, it was wrong to try
 | |
|    computing the object name of the target of symbolic link, which may
 | |
|    not even exist or may be a directory.
 | |
| 
 | |
|  * There was no way to defeat a configured rebase.autostash variable
 | |
|    from the command line, as "git rebase --no-autostash" was missing.
 | |
| 
 | |
|  * Allow "git interpret-trailers" to run outside of a Git repository.
 | |
| 
 | |
|  * Produce correct "dirty" marker for shell prompts, even when we
 | |
|    are on an orphan or an unborn branch.
 | |
| 
 | |
|  * Some corner cases have been fixed in string-matching done in "git
 | |
|    status".
 | |
| 
 | |
|  * Apple's common crypto implementation of SHA1_Update() does not take
 | |
|    more than 4GB at a time, and we now have a compile-time workaround
 | |
|    for it.
 | |
| 
 | |
| Also contains typofixes, documentation updates and trivial code
 | |
| clean-ups.
