| Git v1.8.2.2 Release Notes
 | |
| ==========================
 | |
| 
 | |
| Fixes since v1.8.2.1
 | |
| --------------------
 | |
| 
 | |
|  * Zsh completion forgot that '%' character used to signal untracked
 | |
|    files needs to be escaped with another '%'.
 | |
| 
 | |
|  * A commit object whose author or committer ident are malformed
 | |
|    crashed some code that trusted that a name, an email and an
 | |
|    timestamp can always be found in it.
 | |
| 
 | |
|  * The new core.commentchar configuration was not applied to a few
 | |
|    places.
 | |
| 
 | |
|  * "git pull --rebase" did not pass "-v/-q" options to underlying
 | |
|    "git rebase".
 | |
| 
 | |
|  * When receive-pack detects error in the pack header it received in
 | |
|    order to decide which of unpack-objects or index-pack to run, it
 | |
|    returned without closing the error stream, which led to a hang
 | |
|    sideband thread.
 | |
| 
 | |
|  * "git diff --diff-algorithm=algo" was understood by the command line
 | |
|    parser, but "git diff --diff-algorithm algo" was not.
 | |
| 
 | |
|  * "git log -S/-G" started paying attention to textconv filter, but
 | |
|    there was no way to disable this.  Make it honor --no-textconv
 | |
|    option.
 | |
| 
 | |
|  * "git merge $(git rev-parse v1.8.2)" behaved quite differently from
 | |
|    "git merge v1.8.2", as if v1.8.2 were written as v1.8.2^0 and did
 | |
|    not pay much attention to the annotated tag payload.  Make the code
 | |
|    notice the type of the tag object, in addition to the dwim_ref()
 | |
|    based classification the current code uses (i.e. the name appears
 | |
|    in refs/tags/) to decide when to special case merging of tags.
 | |
| 
 | |
|  * "git cherry-pick" and "git revert" can take more than one commit
 | |
|    on the command line these days, but it was not mentioned on the usage
 | |
|    text.
 | |
| 
 | |
|  * Perl scripts like "git-svn" closed (not redirecting to /dev/null)
 | |
|    the standard error stream, which is not a very smart thing to do.
 | |
|    Later open may return file descriptor #2 for unrelated purpose, and
 | |
|    error reporting code may write into them.
 | |
| 
 | |
|  * "git apply --whitespace=fix" was not prepared to see a line getting
 | |
|    longer after fixing whitespaces (e.g. tab-in-indent aka Python).
 | |
| 
 | |
|  * "git diff/log --cc" did not work well with options that ignore
 | |
|    whitespace changes.
 | |
| 
 | |
|  * Documentation on setting up a http server that requires
 | |
|    authentication only on the push but not fetch has been clarified.
 | |
| 
 | |
|  * A few bugfixes to "git rerere" working on corner case merge
 | |
|    conflicts have been applied.
 | |
| 
 | |
|  * "git bundle" did not like a bundle created using a commit without
 | |
|    any message as its one of the prerequisites.
