GIT v1.6.3.2 Release Notes
|
|
==========================
|
|
|
|
Fixes since v1.6.3.1
|
|
--------------------
|
|
|
|
* A few codepaths picked up the first few bytes from an sha1[] by
|
|
casting the (char *) pointer to (int *); GCC 4.4 did not like this,
|
|
and aborted compilation.
|
|
|
|
* Some unlink(2) failures went undiagnosed.
|
|
|
|
* The "recursive" merge strategy misbehaved when faced rename/delete
|
|
conflicts while coming up with an intermediate merge base.
|
|
|
|
* The low-level merge algorithm did not handle a degenerate case of
|
|
merging a file with itself using itself as the common ancestor
|
|
gracefully. It should produce the file itself, but instead
|
|
produced an empty result.
|
|
|
|
* GIT_TRACE mechanism segfaulted when tracing a shell-quoted aliases.
|
|
|
|
* OpenBSD also uses st_ctimspec in "struct stat", instead of "st_ctim".
|
|
|
|
* With NO_CROSS_DIRECTORY_HARDLINKS, "make install" can be told not to
|
|
create hardlinks between $(gitexecdir)/git-$builtin_commands and
|
|
$(bindir)/git.
|
|
|
|
* command completion code in bash did not reliably detect that we are
|
|
in a bare repository.
|
|
|
|
* "git add ." in an empty directory complained that pathspec "." did not
|
|
match anything, which may be technically correct, but not useful. We
|
|
silently make it a no-op now.
|
|
|
|
* "git add -p" (and "patch" action in "git add -i") was broken when
|
|
the first hunk that adds a line at the top was split into two and
|
|
both halves are marked to be used.
|
|
|
|
* "git blame path" misbehaved at the commit where path became file
|
|
from a directory with some files in it.
|
|
|
|
* "git for-each-ref" had a segfaulting bug when dealing with a tag object
|
|
created by an ancient git.
|
|
|
|
* "git format-patch -k" still added patch numbers if format.numbered
|
|
configuration was set.
|
|
|
|
* "git grep --color ''" did not terminate. The command also had
|
|
subtle bugs with its -w option.
|
|
|
|
* http-push had a small use-after-free bug.
|
|
|
|
* "git push" was converting OFS_DELTA pack representation into less
|
|
efficient REF_DELTA representation unconditionally upon transfer,
|
|
making the transferred data unnecessarily larger.
|
|
|
|
* "git remote show origin" segfaulted when origin was still empty.
|
|
|
|
Many other general usability updates around help text, diagnostic messages
|
|
and documentation are included as well.
